Weekend Estimates: JW: 102 IO 91...RTH: Sun JW 38.3 | IO 25.3 with possible upsides PG 287, possible 107M for JW weekend

[KATCH-2D2]

IO is not beating AoU. Still, Ultron will probably finish #3 domestically and #3 or 4 worldwide.

 

Unless there's more surprise.. like MJ2 having huge increase over CF...

[Ozymandias]

LOL Avatar is not going to be touched by this. Titanic either. But keep dreaming, folks.

 

Titanic/Avengers domestic going down is very realistic depending on further holds, I'll agree Avatar is in the clear.

AVATAR had to compete with two 200 M grossers.

 

JW may have to contend with a 400m grosser.

Thanks for expanding on my point:  JW is competing with a single movie that will match Sherlock and Alvin 2....combined.

[MovieMan89]

By the way, go San Andreas! The drops for it have been great for the genre. Well deserved...I actually prefer it to JW and AoU.

[Dale Cooper]

Passing Avatar shouldn't be written off of course, but it needs to pass Avengers with what, $140m to do so? With a $107m weekend it would be about 30m ahead at this point. So yeah, it probably needs to do $70m+ next weekend to be able to pass Avatar.

[Asyulus]

Hmm.

I wonder...how many $600M WW grossers could we get this year?

FF7, AOU & JW already did it..so what's next?

 

Star Wars, MJII, Spectre, Minions, IO, and Mission Impossible Rogue Nation will all get to that mark.

[The Stingray]

Man, I'm utterly incapable of predicting JW, so I'll probably be way off yet again.

 

IO: 93m

JW: 98m

Really excited to see what MI can do now in this summer.

Btw has IO gross from Tuesday special screening been announced?

I know. But that doesn't mean AVATAR didn't have any competition.

I totally forgot about that. I wonder if that would've added more to its OW, or maybe it helped 'cuz of early WOM.

They are just the same. Ha ha.

[dxmatrixdt]

any confirmation if Inside Out is greater than 32?

[DavidBrennan]

All movies have competition.  Speaking practically, AVTR didn't have much competition, and zero compared to the monsters facing JW.

I didn't even realize this.

San Andreas is a huge success, but Jurassic World really hurt it OS. Definitely left a lot of money on the table, but this was huge for The Rock's solo movie reputation.

[Spidey Freak]

About Frozen, well, its just another simple, absolutely predictable story. The two female leads well, just like in Tangled, but with another female on screen...

 

The only simple and absolutely predictable story here is your trollish post.

I'm not seeing how this has that much more competition. It's not like IO competes for the same audience that JW are. If it has more competition it's more down to that Ted and especially Terminator coming up.
