I did not say 220 mannav did who does great breakdowns.

No point discussing that now best to celebrate a historic weekend.

I thought it was pretty close between the 2.

 

There has been countless debates, but it's hard to say really considering inflation, 3D, etc.

Wohooo for Jurassic World. So well deserved

[Bishop54]

Thanks to Rth for giving us very accurate figures as usual. You kept us excited bud.

[PDC1987]

Yep, and certain people like me who either A) avoided the weekend, B ) couldn't get into sold-out shows, C) were otherwise busy, D) are actually off certain weekdays, or even E) waited to hear WOM...forbodes a VERY good Monday and week!  I'm seeing this in a few hours for the first time...will report back here on crowd and my impression, etc. after.

Welcome!

 

And I look forward to your report!

I'm a long time "guest" but registered just to say it's definitely Pratt on a motorcycle with the Raptors. Plenty of action movies will have scenes like what Vin Diesel did but Pratt's scene was iconic. 

 

 

I think the biggest money shot in JW is a spoiler

[Macleod]

OK, the trades are reporting on this already, not waiting for a final number. Variety's front page is:

 

‘Jurassic World’ Scores Biggest Opening Weekend in History

 

So Awesome.

 

Widest release in Universal's history = not underbooking theatres, right?  I think the sold out shows are simply due to an extraordinary, and yes, under-estimated demand...but not underbooking theatre numbers...

[Nutterbutter]

From THR's report:

 

The tentpole was bigger than expected on Sunday

 

I think everyone expected it to be bigger than early estimates.

You think it would be so easy in the digital age to account for # of tickets sold, sadly the studios don't want to release that data & we have to guess.

I thought SM3 had it in tickets?

It played in less theaters than TA and AOU though.

To be honest with you I think its easier just to say SM1, TDK and TA were all as big as each other domestically.

[Ash Skywalker]

It's OFFICIAL and done deal then! WOW! 

JW Biggest OW($209m) Domestic and worldwide($516m) 

[AniNate]

Those Finals sure were a factor, weren't they?

[GiantCALBears]

I thought SM3 had it in tickets?

No way it beat TDK & TA1, it was huge but not that big.

[Macleod]

Last report we had was that 48% of these receipts are from 3-D, right?  That, to me, is also rather impressive...everyone I talk to usually seems complacent or ambivalent about 3-D...but this got them out for it...

[GiantCALBears]

Those Finals sure were a factor, weren't they?

Probably would have beaten TA1 Sunday if it wasn't for the finals in fairness.
