KATCH-2D2 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 It is VERY disappointing. A movie with 20 Avengers characters only opened 13m more than a movie with JUST Iron Man. This is pretty ridiculous. Because most people saw IM3 as a DIRECT sequel to TA. So you're saying there might be some fatigue going on? SH fatigue? Of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayumanggi Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Oh boy. Disney expecting #Ultron to catch some lost SAT biz today. Projecting 20% SUN dip. If larger, wknd will be about $180M. — Gitesh Pandya (@giteshpandya) May 3, 2015 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pensivepenguin Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Ehhh... it followed Winter Soldier and Guardians of the Galaxy. Both massively popular. Not buying that one, sorry. This. Given how so very well-received both those films are (especially Cap2), with both being called the "best Marvel film" at one point or another, AOU had plenty of good will to work with. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kvikk Lunsj Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Never listening to or letting any of you convince me of numbers anymore. My BSG is already thrrown out of whack. Next time Im not feeling the hype, im not feelig the hype. Nobody beleives in Max > Mad Max but im sticking too it now. This also shows previews dont really mean anythinng for the weekend total. They do nothing but skew everything. Mad Max are not going be big. I thought i was strange I never saw any TV spots for Avengers. I don't watch too much TV put I only saw the Audi Avengers TV spot.Rarely I saw a TV spot during the NHL playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilmBuff Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 187 OW a disaster and all this nonsense about dropping like a rock? Some people on this board are fucking stupid. There's no reason to be that ignorant. Saw one post 'claiming' TDKR sold more tickets this OW. HAHAHA. Don't start. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deep Wang Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Everyone is down on the number, but to me this is making the $207m OW of the first one that much more impressive. That was a truly special weekend that you can't just replicate at will. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoguy Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) I don't agree, too many characters can have the reverse effect. More doesn't always mean better. True. I have to say this. I really love the first Iron Man movie. It really holds up. I rewatch it more than the Avengers. I love the story, origin, performances, humor, and locations. Iron Man breaking out the cave is still one of my favorite scenes ever in a superhero movie. Edited May 3, 2015 by Mojoguy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
