John Harris Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Beware the NOT A RECORD!!! claims. Remember the Nikki Finke lessons from the last Avengers flick. It's all about that Saturday number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Based on the urban reports from Tele/Spizzer and the actual revenue, you have to conclude that the rural areas didn't do as well for previews. Probably will be a lot more backloaded in those rural areas over the weekend. That said, it's a very good number and I dare say something crazy like $250m isn't off the table by any means. IM3 and TA1 both had a 11 multiplier from their previews to weekend total. $27.6m x 11 = $303.6m. I think it will be more frontloaded than those two, but even so it has the potential to put up a truly jawdropping number this weekend. Are you kidding. So Avengers did 62m friday minus midnights. Are you saying this has potential to increase to 90m on friday. Specially with saturated release and 3d is avoided like plague by most. I am willing to bet this being sequel to Avengers it will be lot more frontloaded than the 1st one. This needed bigger previews to break OW record. With the reported previews for saturated release I think there is drop in interest from non fans. While I am not saying this will not break OW record but this preview number definitely make me think there is a possibility this misses OW record and no way on earth this is gonna break OW record by a big margin.

Dementeleus Posted May 1, 2015 Author Share Posted May 1, 2015 Well very close to my 28m. It didn't feel like 30m.Harrumph, E. Harrumph. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spizzer Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> 12% of 27.6M is 3.3M. This math is wack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 It's a good number, don't get me wrong, but WHY NO 30M+ if shows started at 7PM. Because Marvel has a more casual fanbase that tends to go to movies on the weekend. Even with 7 PM showtimes, maybe they just don't think of that as the time to go to the movies so they wait until the weekend. $27.6m is still a really good number considering how backloaded this franchise has been in the past. It very well could put up something crazy like $250m this weekend after that preview number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iceroll Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 I really hope the boring numbers end here. Either go over the OW record or crash. Right now I am thinking 195-205M witch makes me sleepy. Basically... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TA2 was pacing ahead of all other comparisons and it accounted for like 95% of tickets sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grim22 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Harrumph, E. Harrumph. 12% of 27.6M is 3.3M. This math is wack. Blaming you guys for making me think a 40M previews number was in the realm of possibility. Anyway, let's see if it will match TA's 65M Friday. If it does that, then 225M OW is possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TA2 was pacing ahead of all other comparisons and it accounted for like 95% of tickets sold. Chewy made this point before and I'll make it again here. All that showed is just how small the pre-sales percentage is of the total, plus the fact that previous Marvel movies didn't do much of anything with pre-sales. You did not see them comparing it to Potter, Sith, TDKR/TDK, or Twilight pre-sales. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
