John Marston Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 1 hour ago, Darth Homer said: OW: 177 DOM: 650 WW: 1.65b A lot of people are going to freak out when this doesn't break OW records, but they're forgetting two things: 1. Families will be busy with Christmas shopping so the OW will be heavily fan driven. But the second weekend drop will be small to make up for it 2. Many casual fans will skip the OW because of sell out reports. The same thing happened with TPM, which had a lower than expected OW but then showed great legs less than Jurassic World.

POTUS 2020 Posted December 14, 2015 Author Share Posted December 14, 2015 20 hours ago, Juby said: I repeat. Only 2 movies in the history crossed one billion in domestic box office (adjusted) in their first theatrical releases! Titanic (1997) - $1,072.7 mln, and E.T. (1982) - $1,010.6 mln (according to my calculation). TFA won't be THAT big!! I think Avatar adjusted ($811,1 mln) is a huge challenge. First Star Wars original run ($220 mln before July 1978 re-release) adjusted is 'only' about $820 mln (biggest in the history of the series). I'm afraid that even with 3D and IMAX TFA won't beat that. considering that it only need to sell 10% more tickets than TPM to get to 1B, I say its quite possible. TPM had mixed reviews and WOM. Plus you have another generation to sell to while the first generation is still alive and kicking 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grey ghost Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 2 hours ago, Cochofles said: But you know that once they see reality setting in, they will immediately start tweaking their tune, justifying the numbers, rationalizing the scenarios, and I am sure that some of them might even say that their outlandish predictions were just a matter of them joking around and trying to have a little fun with the board... Reality is that Star Wars: The Force Awakens will be gigantic (duh!), but Jurassic World has spoiled everyone into thinking that every beloved blockbuster sequel that comes down the pike from now on will become not just huge, but challenging-Avatar-and-Titanic-huge. In any case, I am so looking forward to the meltdowns. 2 hours ago, James said: Your desperation will begin with the midnight number. When SW fails to touch DH2's record I will smile. Then, the Friday number will come and again it will be under DH2. Right then I will start preparing the crow. And in the end, the OW record will not fall and it will be in that moment, when all hope had faded, when the crow will be hot and ready, that I will serve it and laugh like a mad man doing it...

The film has a very good chance of exceeding 500 mill in North America. If it is really good, it could go much higher. The international market, as many have pointed out, has never put SW on the giants list. It has done well, but far from great, I think that can change this time. For one, many markets have expanded and two, the three originals did well 35 years ago. With the returning cast, I think this will do very well in places that Menace did well. China of course is a wild card here but with places like Australia and the UK looking to do about 250 mill combined, the prospects look enticing. I am still going to stick with 525-550 in North America but I think it can do about 1.3 bill internationally.

That's why we know that whenever Infinity War is done, it will have grossed 4 billion dollars domestically...because the fandom of every single MARVEL movie is separate, which means that all those fans will converge at the cinemas for PART 1 of IW And of course, when IWII opens, it will gross 4 billion plus all the new fans Part I gets.

RT has it at 56%, That would be called mixed are you using BOM's ave 2015 adjustment price 8.02. I have no idea where they get that average, are tickets $5 in the Midwest? Children tickets arent that low in the northeast. Anyway. 90m tickets should do it at an $11+ average. just 6m more tix than PM. there are 40% more people in Dom btw since SW Star wars original run includes the following summer IMO/ I dont think it closed nationwide.

Yep, that's exactly how these things work. That would be silly. I was trying to be reasonable. Although tongue in check the Star Wars franchise is unique. The OT brought in the original fans. The PT brought in a whole new generation of fans. All the animated TV, theme park, toys brought in another generation of fans. People underestimate this. My son ( now 13 ) rode Star Tours at Disneyland, watched the Clone Wars on Disney, and had 100s of dollars of SW legos before he even saw a movie. I can't think of another franchise that has followed a similar path. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
