GP has the greatest action sequences of all time.

Get the fuck outta here.

[Ethan Hunt]

GP had a really good second act therefore it had an an inevitably weaker third act, whereas RN has a strong second act and a pretty good third act, too.

I view Ghost Protocols second and third acts as totally equivalent to one another

Get the fuck outta here.

I guess Raiders... But I can't think of anything else I would put on that level

Terminator 2

Hollywood Reporter says M:I5 18m for friday, 45+ for the weekend, if not 47+

 

16m FSS for Vacation which seems high to me.

Its not doing under $50m. I expect $6-m+ if not $70.

[Dementeleus]

Forget all-time, forget 21st century, forget decade of the '10s... I don't think GP even has the best action of that year.

GotG 3.53x and EoT 3.48x were not sequels.

A sequel at par with them could have a 2.8-3.2x multiplier.

Eg: CA:WS did 2.73x albeit with a huge ow (259.766/95.023). Dawn did 2.8x(208.545/72.611).

 

MI5 being a smaller opener comparatively and having little competition (a pretty nebulous phrase indeed), could go towards the higher end - 3.0x-3.2x.

Die Hard had the greatest action set piece of all time.

Yup!

Fast Five easily tops GP.

I think it's time you put down the teenage soap operas of John Green and watch some action movies.

There are LOADS AND LOADS of movies that have better action than Ghost Protocol.

[FilmBuff]

I can think of loads of scenes from The Matrix that outdid GP too.

[John Marston]

18m seems poor for MI5

[The Dark Alfred]

Damn that's only 14m Friday

[CJohn]

Then that just doesn't compute. GP has the greatest action sequences of all time.

Oh kid, never change

A 14M Friday take seems low, hopefully the WC steps up.

[HesAPooka]

I think 50 is a lock at this point. 

[The Dark Rock]

If $18m is including previews then its not good at all...

[fmpro]

Horrible number

[a2k]

18m+, so assuming 18.5m

4 + 14.5 + 14.5 + 11.25(-22.5%) = 44.25m

 

If WC pushes it to 19.5m

4 + 15.5 + 15.5 + 12(-22.5%) = 47m
