MrFanaticGuy34 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 So far til this year....we got 24 movies that made over more than $1B WW in movie history. And sometimes there are several ones that are considered good by critics & audience alike. Imagine a few more movies and we'll get a top 30 highest grossers that consists nothing but billionares.

That shd be the day when #StarWarsTheForceAwakens breaks Avatar's all-time domestic record. Just 3wks after opening! ???? Gitesh is almost always conservative with his projections, sometimes to a fault. edit: in this case, he's going off the total from the official weekend estimates (740.2m) and probably figuring around 7m for today, 7-8m for tomorrow, which would bring the total to 755m or so, passing AVATAR on Wednesday. If actuals come closer to Rth's number and it holds a tink better than Gitesh expects, it could pass it Tuesday. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayhawk the Hutt Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 It will probably be touch and go if TFA can pass Avatar on Tuesday. Certainly will help with the weekend # likely being a couple million bigger than estimates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the final movie in Disney's Premium TV window for Starz. Starting with The Finest Hours Netflix gets Disney movies in the Premium TV period.

Typically I'd say 1.5 billion was the new billion but four movies crossed that benchmark in 2015 making it look easy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next year, we'll get the ones that are easy definite billion dollar-grossers. Finding Dory, Batman VS Superman & Captain America 3. Others will get the $1B mark, too.....but they need more advantages. Edited January 4, 2016 by MrFanaticGuy34 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daxtreme Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I'd say Rogue One has a pretty good shot at $1B, seeing the success of Ep 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think $2b WW is the new $1b WW. TFA has a great chance, but many developing economies (which is the main reason for OS #s explosive growth) don't look like they are going to be in a great spot over the next few years. This not only means potentially less consumer spending, but also worse exchange rates (we are seeing that now) as the dollar is extremely strong and only becoming more so. I don't think we'll see a ton of movies cross the $2b WW barrier over the next few years. Edited January 4, 2016 by Jayhawk the Hutt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terrestrial Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I think ppl underestimate in a big way the boom local movies have in at least some of the key markets Open Road Spotlight $1,185,093 9% 385 -95 $3,078 $27,108,972 . Universal Legend (2015) $13,650 -43% 13 -6 $1,050 $1,865,774 . Freestyle The Letters $5,037 97% 6 -1 $840 $1,632,464 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think 2 billion will become the magic number as more movies begin to cross 1.6 billion regularly. Probably by 2020 if not sooner. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that gets all cleaned (term?) with this one. We will have to look into the per day details, when they are finally up I post the details (for now, as usual, starting with the smaller ones) as I find them. If there is one you like to see more immediatly (out of the posted ones) I can link you to the dailies too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
