#ED Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 So we just went from high end of 67 down to sub-60. Guess the question of whether the fight would hurt has been answered. Too bad the fight itself sucked a King Kong sized penis. The comparison tho... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Someone should save those crazy bullish Variety articles. You know, for posterity. Someone should go through these boards and find all the threads where people FREAKED OUT at the mere idea of sub-200 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfirebird2008 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Is that with Fridays previews? Yes, so basically a 4% increase from regular Friday business. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theultimatebiu Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Gitesh Pandya @giteshpandya 34s35 seconds ago #AvengersAgeOfUltron takes big hit SAT, maybe -30% to high 50s. Wknd in 190s range. #PacquiaoMayweather among factors. The fight did hurt it a bit but I can't see it having done too much damage. The fight was so damn one sided too. I really did believe we were getting a ow record Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 only bad news for this so far Yep, second biggest opening day of all time, second biggest opening weekend of all time. Flop 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Fucking pos fight. Why they scheduled that shit for this weekend I don't understand. Mayweather is a big gambler, so I would guess he was involved with the Kentucky Derby. Probably wanted to get paid around the same time for the fight and recoup any losses he might have had on the race in a hurry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#ED Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Well Sunday shouldn't drop too hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecstasy Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Yes, I believe so. I mean is the percentage drop from Friday including previews or is that the drop from Friday proper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddyxx Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) Marvel should've moved this to the last week of April once that fight was scheduled. ETA typed wrong month Edited May 3, 2015 by Eddy Targaryen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grim22 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 for right now LA is taking the biggest hit between the 2 biggest markets NY/LA theres more than 20% difference in the drop from fri Right from the awesome Clippers game, all the way to MayPac, LA has been otherwise occupied today. Tomorrow morning shows may overperform though due to that, maybe a much lighter drop to 50M or so i.e. just a 10% to 15% drop may happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jandrew Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Well, I think the 210 estimate came during the day on Friday It's 100% Tele's fault It really is Teles fault. I said 195 and he kept giving me lectures on how previews were gonna keep that from happening. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BadAtGender Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Huh. high 50s means it's barely up from the True Friday. Which probably means it needs a sub-20% drop on Sunday in order to hit 190. I kinda doubt that's happening. OTOH, it would need to be hammered tomorrow in order to not hit 180. So it should be fairly comfortably ahead of IM3.

grim22 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Based on what Rth said i.e. Canada was down only 15% or so with previews, that would have given AoU a 71M 2nd day if the US had followed suit. Realistically around 68-69M might have happened. Falling from that would give it 47M Sunday, if Sunday gets spillover we may see a 50M Sunday tomorrow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
