Kalderic Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 good enough numbers all around. It has been a very exciting week for daily numbers, which is very unusual. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Terrific Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Is there any way to reliably assess which movies get the most repeat theater business? Obviously, bigger grosses and bigger multipliers suggest it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moviedweeb Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 AOU with 2.4M is about the same hold as Wednesday.. Pretty good for all the lackluster crap comments it's received for the last 3 weeks.. If you read World of KJ, They've pretty well have written the movie off.. Never thought a movie that's made 1 Billion Dollars WW would be deemed lackluster, but whatever.. That's Retard Logic 101 for ya.. AOU is a massive hit and is putting up incredible numbers. Anyone who says it is not doing well doesn't have any box office perspective. Having said that, most expected to it to surpass its predecessor WW hence the disappointment. But disappointment and doing poorly are completely different things. AOU Ultron is a massive blockbuster of the highest order, it just didn't meet expectations which is really a testament to the quality of TA and the MCU in general. The gross is far from lackluster, but the performance relative to the original is. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatree Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 AOU just isn't very interesting. I certainly wouldn't pay to see it more than once. No less interesting than Avengers 1 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementeleus Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 No less interesting than Avengers 1 though. I found it much less interesting. And I'm not a huge TA1 guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deep Wang Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 I'm a huge Marvel and MCU guy, devout WWW, and I still can't bring myself to see AoU a second time. I can see it as many times as I want for free, but I'd rather watch Fury Road a trillion more times. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krissykins Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Poltergeist did at 8pm in 2D and 3D. Tomorrowland had 7pm and 10pm shows in IMAX and other large format screens, but regular shows started at 12:01am. So Tomorrowland started at 7, a Poltergeist at 8.

TalismanRing Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 (edited) I'm a huge Marvel and MCU guy, devout WWW, and I still can't bring myself to see AoU a second time. I can see it as many times as I want for free, but I'd rather watch Fury Road a trillion more times. Whereas I could easily never see Fury Road again in my lifetime and be very content. I've had no desire to see any F&F movie after the first one though I've caught bits and pieces of others over the years. But I'll see AOU again in theaters, buy it on Blu-Ray and watch it often. Different strokes folks. Edited May 22, 2015 by TalismanRing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Harris Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 I found it much less interesting. And I'm not a huge TA1 guy. I thought TA1 started much more slowly than AOU, which kept me engrossed from start to finish. AOU does not have the rousing YEAAAAH!!! moments that the original did, though. I just don't think those moments can ever be duplicated, because a lot of it was the thrill of seeing these characters so effectively brought to life together for the first time. This is especially true for the Hulk, who was such a disappointment (to most!) in his solo films. I'm not terribly surprised that AOU is not doing the business that the original did: I will probably end up seeing AOU 4 or 5 times; I saw TA1 ten or 11 times. If a Marvel Zombie like me is seeing it half as often, it stands to reason that casual viewers aren't going to love it as much as they did the first, either.

keysersoze123 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Poltergeist wont do much over the weekend but Tomorrowland will come in way below tracking(~45m). I would think 30-35m over 4 days for Tomorrowland and 20-25m for poltergeist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
