filmscholar Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I don't think the Bmore drama will have an effect as someone mention. All 6 cops were charged multiple times. So that should curve protest that have been going on in all these major cities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoxOfficeFangrl Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 And about 87 re-releases, literally. Sure, GWTW played a long time initially and was re-released in multiple decades. But if the only way to see a movie in color was to go to the theater then there would be a lot more re-releases now. The popularity of the story has spanned generations, there were tons of movies released 75 years ago since there was no TV as competition, not all of them have hung on like that one has. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spizzer Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Mojo says TA sold slightly more tickets. http://www.boxofficemojo.com/alltime/adjusted.htm?adjust_yr=1p=.htm Mojo's ticket sales numbers for individual films are incorrect in the post-Avatar 3D era. They use yearly/quarterly average ticket price and apply it to all films (instead of looking at each film's exact 2D/3D splits), when it is only meant to work for the timeframe. From 2010 onwards, 2D-centric films will be slightly underestimated on that scale, while 3D-centric films are overestimated. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Stingray Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 It's gonna make 190-195m OW and 475-525m total. No need for no gloom and doom. Those who predicted +600m only got themselves to blame... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiantCALBears Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Well, that's a hell of an interesting number to wake up to. Probably thinking the opening will be in the mid 190s, now. Jesus, everyone got me expecting it was going to be closer to 100. WTF happened, people? Rth over predicted by a decent margin, that's what happened.

The Futurist Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Mojo says TA sold slightly more tickets. http://www.boxofficemojo.com/alltime/adjusted.htm?adjust_yr=1p=.htm Mojo doesn t take into account 3d and I max into its adjusted numbers. All their adjusted numbers for 3d & Imax movies are wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kvikk Lunsj Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I was hoping that a 100m OD could happen. The number is disappointing due high exception but Disney will still earn a billion dollar in profit off this movie. I just wounder what this means for Avengers IFW1.

From 2010 onwards, 2D-centric films will be slightly underestimated on that scale, while 3D-centric films are overestimated. I am surprised anyone with ounce of BO knowledge would think 621m with 3d in 2012 would be bigger than 533m in 2d from 2008. That too number of imaxs exploded since TDK which did sensationally in Imax( 6.3m ow and 50m leggy gross). In fact debate was between TDK and Avatar. We will never know for sure there as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAJK Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 It is locked to hit 500m DOM, why you are saying not locked? Because using the term "lock" is hard to do when talking about box office. Plus I misread the number and thought it said 550 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you know Disney will make a billion profit again? No facts to back that up lol keep in mind the studio has massive expectations already priced in regardless of what they say publicly.

keysersoze123 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 For anyone looking sensational number for Avengers look across the border to Mexico. 14m for 2 days !!!! Probably looking at 28m OW. Furious 7 just broke the OW record at 21.9m. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will have to wait and see how Phase 3 plays out. I hope it doesn't pull a MJP1 and drop like Part 1's do. But it really is up to phase 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
