And if it's 250M with a 60 Sunday, this is frontloaded and signs of legs are not that good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfirebird2008 Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Just now, stripe said: And if it's 250M with a 60 Sunday, this is frontloaded and signs of legs are not that good? lol of course not. Just saying it would be an even better sign. But I'd rather see 250 milestone of course. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 In my opinion it will drop less than 40% today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmscholar Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Wow, "Episode VIII" and the "Avatar" sequels got a mountain to climb after these numbers. Doing this in December is litterally icing on the cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SK is looking weak and may be 70m less than avatar Japan opened strong but is likely to fall short by 40-70m Russia opened decent but the ruble cut in half since then. Will be 50m+ short there. Dom will make up for sk Japan and russia. Remains to be seen how the smaller territories do. China will be the wild card. Some say 100-150. Theater owners are thinking 200-220. It will be up to local WOM I say 20% chance for now until we see next weekends WW hold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seduh Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Amazing Sunday hold. It will fall harder than other films for sure but it wont collapse at all. A 3x from OW is going to happen. It will make $800 DOM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#ED Posted December 21, 2015 Author Share Posted December 21, 2015 I understand some people think it will drop less than 40% on Monday. I think if the figure lands about 60M for Sunday, that it's really hard to pull off a 30M+ on Monday. I don't think that is possible with winter breaks not in full effect yet.

Avatar be going down (domestically of course WW will still stand strong when all is said and done) I'm sure I'm going to get a lot of hate for this, but this movie doesn't deserve to beat Avatar. Unlike Star Wars, Avatar was built on pure word of mouth, almost no hype upon release. TFA is from a franchise continuing from a 40 year legacy, hype was inevitable. What Avatar did is to be respected in my opinion. Edited December 21, 2015 by Sagemode87 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All combined in 09 was also All movies combined have dropped 22-51% on this Monday since 09. When Xmas is on the following sun-mon it's worse. On tuesday is better. I'm thinking 33-40%. I would be shocked at 50% 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
