mahnamahna Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 IO is running a lot like TS 3 3 days: IO/TS3 = 90.44/110.31 ~ 82% 10 days: IO/TS3 = 184.95/226.89 ~ 82% IO will end its run with 338M Except TS3 had a horrible 3rd weekend hold due to Last Airbender Inside Out should drop 30-35%. And after Minions have 15-35% drop until Labor Day $335-340 million is the floor at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiantCALBears Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Jurassic World's success shows 3 things: 1) You can't predict the box office. There is so much information out there, but no one is consistently predicting the box office correctly. There's just no way to gauge what will catch on. 2) Franchises are where the big money is. This is why studios concentrate so much on franchises. This is why there is sequel after sequel and prequel after prequel. Franchises are what the majority of movie-goers want to see. 3) Disney really needs to make an Indiana Jones movie. An excellent Indiana Jones movie could do massive numbers at the box office. Franchises like Terminator, Mission Impossible & Fantastic 4? Lol I'll set the line at .5 of those 3 films being decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAR Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 It's alright but nothing special. So we're at a point where 450m+/1bn+ is considered nothing special. Ok, I don't get it but ok 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went from not wanting one to really being excited about it. But the script has to be great and it has to be Chris Pratt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, I don't get it but ok It's a sequel to a movie that blew the doors off what was possible OW, 2nd weekend hold at 9 figures. Sorry if I'm not exactly impressed when it was ALWAYS going to do huge. Can you imagine if it did less than the #s you posted? Lol please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennaJ Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 No Pratt, he feels far to obvious Yes, because you absolutely want to let your new Indiana Jones be a huge risk, right? In this case, the whole franchise reboot is already a risk, so smart choice would be to go with someone most audience could get behind. I don't see a better candidate than Pratt right now.

samsha22 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I'll compare JW and JP1 with their 17th days. JW is at $500M DOM in it's 17th day. JP1 was at $171M DOM in it's 17th day. So JW is outpacing the first one with nearly $330M DOM higher gross. There is a job opening at BOM..apply today itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But because of point 1 in your quote, studios need to focus on original films cause they don't which one will spawn a franchise. Did Fox know they will be announcing so many Avatar sequels while the first one was being made. Disney probably were confident there will be more Prince of Persias and John Carpenters. Little did they know they will be working on a sequel for Frozen. Sony did not know that they were making a solid franchise when 21 JS was being made. One that will have better footing domestically than spiderman. Edited June 28, 2015 by a2k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Marston Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Avengers 2 did all right but definitely below expectations. Nobody was expecting Jurassic World to beat it in any shape or form lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan Hunt Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I just didn't care for him at all in Indy 4. Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is no Raiders or Crusade but its a highly enjoyable film IMO and Shia is a big part of that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
