Well 70M+ isn't comfirmed just yet.

It may as well be. A while after he gave the 70-74 range he said "the wc is killing it." (Wink, wink.)

You  mean the girl who knows how to use Unix?

Yes, the one that thought that turning on a lantern and screaming like a mad was a good idea.

I have been lurking on the forums since Catching Fire's weekend and decided to finally join in. As a fan of Marvel and the  Jurassic Park movies  I'm glad that both have spots in the top opening weekends. 

 

Welcome aboard. Two things, trust rth, don't trust Noctis.

 

You'll survive.

Yeah dude.. I'm above it and don't give a shit anymore.. Once more, records fall. TA had it's day and something came along and beat it.. Big deal.. Great for Universal, but stop coming off as a pretentious douche..

You obviously care I remember AOU opening weekend the rants you were throwing around cursing RTH saying that's he's bullshit. Cursing out the fight you were really upset more than any person has a right to be over a gorss of a movie that they are not in any way involved in. Coming in now and saying you don't care is disingenuous

I am totally shocked at the lines going to this movie. Everybody knows it will do $300M dom easily but this is something else.

Stop saying it is the Prat factor

70-74 range was Noctis trolling again

 

No... Noctis trolled 71-74 then the real Rth stated 70-74.

 

And implied later that WC was doing better then expected.

[Blankments]

I really hope Inside Out isn't destroyed by Jurassic World. JW is entertaining but kinda lacking and although I haven't seen Inside Out yet, I have a feeling I'll like it more.

I've been lurking around long enough to know that.

Apparently that milestone means the studio can charge more for tv rights.

 

Really? Where did you hear that? Interesting...  

[zackzack]

The numbers are insane. The lines are insane. This thread is insane!!!!

[Kalo]

Box office reporting $210m...

It think JW will mute its opening a little bit but if it's as good as it looks like it will overcome it.

 

Much like Frozen did against CF.

Our little army is recruiting tonight.

 

Lurkers, sign up.

 

Promise, we don't bite.

This whole thing is shocking to me in a way. I honestly can't fathom how this beat Avengers 1. I find Avengers 1 a better film, but more on the marketing front, I wasn't super impressed by Jurassic World

 

But then again, it's super cool the record is being broken by a movie absolutely no one expected to break the record

I still think the *level* of shock is perplexing. This isn't a foreign language documentary breaking the record. The first two films broke the OW record and the 3rd likely would have too if it had opened on a Friday.

Literally the biggest OW record. I'm sure Inside Out will be impacted somewhat.

JW is a bigger beast than CF.

This comment reminds me of the recent Lady Gaga interview in which she claimed her last solo LP (which plummeted om it's predecessor) "wasn't about being a hit or getting hit singles."

How many times have people written off Marvel?

Iron Man blows up then they put out a few weaker films.

People write them off. It must be end for superheroes.

Avengers blows up then they put out a couple weaker films.

People write them off. "Marvel was a fluke."

Then GotG and Winter Soldier blows up...

You see a trend?

[Mitch]

has anyone discussed the massive opening effect with next weeks drop?

 

what will the drop be?
