4815162342 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 This has to go well over 50, not to TA level , but 45 has to be a done deal Sounds good for 52-54M? 194-195M+? In a nutshell everything on sunday was under estimated 195 for the weekend possible? All sporting events did have an affect then. Confirmed. Well thank you for not providing numbers yet. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecstasy Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 So let's call the range 49-54? LOL Please let's not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantomex Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Out of all the upcoming movies, I can see Batman V Superman getting pretty close. If WB has another marketing campaign as good as the Dark Knight, it could very well top it. It's Batman and Superman in the same movie and from all the positive reactions, people have been waiting for and are ready for another Batman.

KATCH-2D2 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) We won't know AOU's legs till the next weekend is done anyway, so no use overreacting to any of the daily numbers (not that it will stop people on this board).No overreactions? Here? Like that's gonna happen. If there's a panic button here it'd be so overused it's no longer functioning.lol I'm not complaining, it's very fun to watch.

grim22 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) The roller coaster started earlier than usual this time with all the nonsense deflating the gross on Saturday. It will be interesting to see how it plays out. Didn't it actually start at 1pm on Friday with Deadline's 87M number which was followed in short order by Variety's 89-98M number and THR's 95M number. Looked for all the world that the first 100M OD was a done deal at that point. This has been a great weekend on the boards though, right from the breathless sellout reports to the preview number to the initial mid-80s Friday to a possible 100M OD to #FiveExtraHours to the fight and the debate of its effects and ending with a really good but not record breaking weekend number. I am happy I was free this weekend to follow along whenever I found the time. Edited May 4, 2015 by grim22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druv10 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 All sporting events did have an affect then. Confirmed. Saturday was sports heaven. The fight, Spurs/Clippers, Kentucky Derby, Stanley Cup playoffs, NFL Draft and MLB. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyLL Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 In a nutshell everything on sunday was under estimated Then the fight ( along with everything else ) did affect it. I didn't think it would... I didn't think boxing was very relevant in the USA anymore. I will say that when I was left at 4:00 for my showing there were cars lined the curbs in my neighborhood. Whole lotta parties going on.

As much of a BvS fan as I am and it is my #1 most anticipated movie, no way it gets close to TA's number. Best case scenario is a TDKR OW number.

Accursed Arachnid!™ Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) Well...Friday night and Saturday morning wasn't a roller coaster, it was a fucking trainwreck. To be fair though, the higher the gross, the larger the margin for error. If this was 8.5m rather than the "reported" 9.5m, this wouldn't even be an issue.

With 3-D and OS growth, I can see it making it past TDKR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

druv10 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Well...Friday night and Saturday morning wasn't a roller coaster, it was a fucking trainwreck. I was busy most of early Saturday, I can only imagine what kind of meltdowns happened with a 12-15M drop from early estimate. I bet Noctis' was happy OD record is still safe.

Lordmandeep Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Also for the fight dont think of 3 million buys. Almost everyone I know who watched it or hosted a party got a free stream as well. With the internet age audience was bigger then 3 million buys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet Noctis' was happy OD record is still safe. I stayed up for all of it. Noctis left being pissed that the OD for sure was going down and came back right when everything was being revised. Friggin' irritating it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theStun Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Absolutely agree. I'm so want this movie to break out historically big but things don't go my way in reality. I doubt it'd even top FF7 openning. I see BvS opening to 170+ legs though are another thing and I see it barely getting past 1B WW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
