cory Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 (edited) Looking like $250-260m now. 57 + 68 + 74 + 60 Edited December 18, 2015 by cory 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 From Excel at KJ: Quote No idea what to make of this number relative to opening day and the rest of the weekend. Potter 8 did 45m in 2011 dollars and only midnights. $40 million of the presales were for previews, so only adding another $15m in walk up business might be noteworthy for a film I suspected all along would dominate presales and sneak previews but be much more average with walk up business. Despite massive previews, I think my prediction of $165m will wind up close than all of those $200m+ predictions. I suspect most everybody who really wanted to see it, well, already has. I do think we are looking at one of the most frontloaded films in history, though, regardless of anything. I dont think WOM will be overly impressive and the geek rush here is unparallelled. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took the record back in fucking style. With similar ratio to Potter, we're looking at 120M+ OD and since this should be less frontloaded 125M+ should happen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#ED Posted December 18, 2015 Author Share Posted December 18, 2015 57M! Even if it's heavily front loaded and follows Harry Potter somehow, we're still looking at a 110M or so Opening Day!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So $240m-$250m really does seem about right at this point. Drop on Sunday should be a lot worse than JW, $300m is out IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K1stpierre Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Now tell me, Harry was just midnight showings right? Whereas SW had 7pm and so on showings, which don't get me wrong this is fucking HUGE, but just putting it in perspective. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayumanggi Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 That 72.7 M figure is for TWO days (44 markets) by the way. Many markets open today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
