BadAtGender Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Does anyone know when the original Avengers ended its IMAX run? And if it did any significant loss to its daily gross? I believe IMAX was taken by MiB 3 over Memorial Day weekend. It didn't drastically affect Avengers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennaJ Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 What studio is having the worst year? Isn't it Sony by default? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfirebird2008 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Oh, I see, thanks for the info. I guess we can just say that JW will beat Spiderman's estimated admissions on BOM's charts. lol haha, we could...but that would be like saying Avatar beat Phantom Menace or Jurassic Park's domestic ticket sales...Avatar is the most overestimated on there due to the 75-80% 3D ratio and over $100m IMAX. It's around 8-10 million tickets behind Jurassic Park but BOM lists it around 10 million tickets ahead (original runs only). Either way, if you said Jurassic World would come anywhere near the admissions number of SM1 people would laugh you off this website just a month ago.

I don't think anyone or the majority of people could have predicted JW's success. Going back, I've seen some OW and even lifetime predictions that were nowhere near even JW's first 2 day gross.

BadAtGender Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 What I was questioning was not why they sign the movies they do, but why they sign anything at all instead of leaving it up to their call in real time. But I guess it has to do with giving movies the incentive to either film in IMAX or make the conversion. It's partly that. IMAX gets a benefit when their tech is used in production. But it's also that while IMAX has the brand as THE premium format, it's not like they hold all the cards. If they did something like what you propose, they'd probably get a smaller cut of the pie. More limited choice but bigger cut of the profits > Specific choice and smaller cut. Assuming such a thing could even be possible. There might be industry-wide agreements that prevent it. There are also technical limitations, probably. It's probably not something that can happen on a whim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quigley was under 150 total I think and people are still giving him shit about it in the International forum, lol. JP4 is more than doubling the $300m some of the biggest fans were hoping for prior to release week. Pretty incredible stuff. Poor TA2 is the quietest $450m domestic and $1.4B global box office run we will ever see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan Hunt Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I see what you did there. Really Because I don't known what you're talking about , I was just saying that October is crowded with lots of potentially big adult dramas that could potentially destroy each other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was incredible how quickly the bar kept rising and rising once preview numbers came in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bender Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I think this summer is terminated. No one upcoming film have the appeal of "big event" a la "Avengers 2" or "Jurassic World". The rest of these movies could be happy if cross the $200M line. We'll don't see another +$300M beast til Christmas... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 On the contrary, but ANT-MAN will be a hit the same way GOTG was.. 300M Domestic is ensured.. I have confidence in this and MARVEL.. Hmmm.... no. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Alfred Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Well I disagree a bit. Minions and MI5 will be huge and SOC will be an event in its own way as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
