redfirebird2008 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I doubt TDK's average ticket price was that high. Plus Avatar did twice the number compared to TDK in just Imax at slightly higher price. There is no way the gap is that much. But one can just argue. We need market by market split and tickets sale by format to come to conclusion and we will never have that data. I think we can agree it wasn't a 20m ticket gap, though I'm sure Kal will fight to death on that one (no matter how delusional his points are). I figure a more interesting comparison is between the superhero movies: TDK, SM1, TA1. All three of them are around 70m admissions and it's close enough that I'm honestly not sure which one was bigger. They all had amazing runs though, no doubt about that.

GiantCALBears Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 (edited) Snoop you understand the law of diminishing returns right? ESP for how it applies to sequels & potential profitability?? Edited May 2, 2015 by GiantCALBears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kvikk Lunsj Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 LOL at 1.2B from home video. That market has crashed a while ago. I thought cable rights/broadcast rights would be worth more. Same with merchandising rights. I see more Marvel stuff today than I did four years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asyulus Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I still believe that 200M OD is happening. Paq and Maywheater will help it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Futurist Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Snoop you understand the law of diminishing returns right? ESP for how it applies to sequels & potential profitability??

Kvikk Lunsj Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Snoop you understand to concept of law of diminishing returns right? ESP for how it applies to sequels & potential profitability?? Yes I do. I don;t think Avengers 2 overall will earn as much of a profit for Marvel/Disney but it is going to earn them a lot of money in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cory Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Iron Man 3 only made $200m profit from WW home video according to Deadline. $1.2b is a joke number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TDK - 73M SM1 - 70M TA - 65M It's really not close enough that we can't say, there's a decent gap between all 3. We had this conversation 3 years ago as well You're just ridiculously pessimistic with TDK/TDKR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neo Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Should we lower our GOTG II predicts? It will also drop from the first imo. Still can't see lower than 150M OW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had this conversation 3 years ago as well You're just ridiculously pessimistic with TDK/TDKR No I'm not. Are you accounting for the fact SM1/TA1 were magnets for little kids while TDK wasn't? Are you accounting for the fact SM1 had zero boost from IMAX? I think all three of them are in a similar spot when you account for everything (kid prices, IMAX, 3D, inflation, etc.).

Avatree Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Still can't see lower than 150M OW. 148M is my prediction. The idea that GOTG 2 will drop from GOTG 1 though... aww kay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
