Asyulus Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 No it's not locked, but I think this will get almost exact 2.6 multiplier (no evidence, just faith ) so lets say 190OW (even though I think it will be a few million higher) x2.6 and you get basically "just" 500M DOM It is locked to hit 500m DOM, why you are saying not locked?

James Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Isn't this going to need a HUGE Saturday jump to hit 200mil now?. About double the jump of IM3 or TA. Or close to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 God, some of you people are fucking unbearable. Yeah, some people are making this thread unbearable to read. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catty Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 But it's going against 4 major sporting events all day Saturday, including The Fight Of The Century. So AOU will get hit. The question is, how hard will it get hit? Will it be a love tap or a knockout? No offense but every time I read this I laugh - this fight while huge doesn't hold a candle to the Ali/Frazier fights I grew up with but I guess this is a new century Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecstasy Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 It's technically fatigue as crazy as that sounds, or TA1, IM3 were outliers. FF7 won't even lose to TA2 by that much globally. How is "technically" fatigue? What does that even mean, LOL. LOL you say that like F7 made chump change ww. 1.3b is a lot of money. I hardly call that fatigue.

Asyulus Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 (edited) Hum, FF7 WW over ULTRON WW looks likely now ... Nope. 0% chance Edited May 2, 2015 by AxelSteal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceroll Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I feel like the rural grosses must have been reallllly bad for TA2. I mean sellout reports and tracking usually look at big city theaters and extrapolate from there right? I don't see how the numbers keep coming lower than expected.

GiantCALBears Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 It's even better than earlier. It also ilustrates quite nicely that what I've been repeating for about a year now is true: the novelty element, that transformed TA in the beast it was, is gone. It's truly stunning really that this will manage to retain such a big part of the originals OW, even if it will likely decrease by more than 100M when we talk total. TA was clearly a special event that IM3 benefited from even more than TA2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keysersoze123 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 True. That's why I think it won't make $217M but it can still make around $210M imo. But anything above $200M is still massive. Show me how it will do 210M from 84.5M friday. Are you saying bigger increase on saturday minus previews and similar drop as Avengers on sunday. This is also assuming there will be zero impact due to fight of the century and other sporting events, and assuming AOU is having similar reception as Avengers. I think 200m is best case scenario with Avengers kind of increase/decrease. Even with IM3 saturday and Avengers sunday it will not break OW record.

redfirebird2008 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Isn't this going to need a HUGE Saturday jump to hit 200mil now?. IM3's 18% increase would put it in good position. Would then need a 27.8% Sunday drop to hit $200m. The odds of it reaching 18% increase today are not that good though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuart360 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 It is locked to hit 500m DOM, why you are saying not locked? Its not locked at all. The first film was almost universally loved yet it still could only manage 3x legs. The legs for this film will be considerably shorter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> That isnt that great either. I mean, it's obviously a huge number, but from what I've read in the OS thread, people were expecting another 200M weekend + Friday was a holiday in most markets.

theultimatebiu Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I see a lot of experts. "I saw it coming." "I am not surprised." "I knew it." Yep. Nobody here was saying this a few days ago. Pretty much everyone expected a record breaking OW 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
