Fake Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 15 minutes ago, Punishment said: I started with TFA Sunday gross then used the daily increases/decreases for each movie. I'm going with around a $970m total (and $1b if Disney gives it a late Oscar push), where do you think it will end up? Today's drop will be important because it will tell us how strong the weekdays will be..... if it can drop below 65%, i.e. 7.5M+, it would have a good shot at 1B.

I'm not sure what I'm more impressed by, that TFA beat the old record by 11 days, or that the record stood for over 11 years. Spiderman only had 3 days. I've found TDK had 5. Wednesday / Thursday is tricky business. Remember Avengers and JW (barely) were during school weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fine with Bay sticking with Transformers and TMNT, I'd be far more worried if he got involved with a property that I cared about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In around 15 years of Internet he (?) is the first one who really annoyed me. Not even some of the IMDb trolls managed that (even if a few there seem to be a liiitle bit over the top too) Hence my own (successful) search for the ignore button (hi 75...) = back to the fun and - to me personally - enjoyment of pur BO datas!

Michael Bay Directing Star Wars Spinoff in 2020. Tentatively titled "The Force Unleashed". It promises high intense Jedi vrs Robot action, Jedi have become so powerful they can use the force to fly and teleport. The Darkside Joins the Light to battle an invasion of extra-galactic Robot warriors. the great great great granddaughter of Rey will lead the light, and Kylo Ren's great great great grandson will lead the dark. The movie will have a massive asteriod destroying a planet, and robots leg humping. The Rock will star as a Darkside uses and Rohnda Rousey as the light. We will no longer have a classical soundtrack, but instead it will be Europunk. Its gonna be great. Edited January 5, 2016 by tokila 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just can't believe with some of the supposed tentpole films(Hobbit, I'm looking at you) that were released at the same point TFA was didn't break a record SM2 broke during the July 4th Holiday. That also goes for the TF films that were released at the same time of year as SM2(One even with the same calendar configuration- Adjusted for inflation Dark of the Moon doesn't even go over 20m for 6 days and it had 3D). Hollywood had plenty of opportunities, inflation and 3D upcharges to squeeze over 20m out of a film for 7+ consecutive days and other than SM2, none of them could get past five until TFA. Adjust SM2 to 2016 those 6 days are over 30m. And we're talking about 20m per day here, not 30m. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opening on Wednesday June 30, it has the benefit of the July 4 holiday happening on Monday July 5. This gives it 2 weekdays then a long summer weekend. It's still crazy that those numbers all adjust to 30m+, but I think it was in the perfect position to get 6 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
