The Dark Alfred Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Just a little warning for the negative voices, just be careful. These numbers may very well be the highest opening numbers this year. BvS can still out gross Deadpool and fight off CW to take the yearly SH crown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanos was actually in Guardians. It's actually the only movie he has a real role in. Just like Batfleck is in Suicide Squad. You might look at it as an outside film, but that doesn't mean it is. They are both connected to their respective universes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This time I've actually learned how to do this thing, I'm going with Fast 7's numbers and placing it slightly under. Think, if keeps going slightly under F7, the tendency is that going forward, these numbers will slightly keep going to make BvS gross less than the film I'm mirroring, Fast 7, which ended its run with $353m Dom. you do realize that F7 have a multiplier of 2.4x, if BvS is slight lower than F7, then say 2.3x then BvS would be sitting at around $381mil. Even with 2.2x it will be making $365 mil ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it needs at least 1.2 to have a shot at taking the superhero crown. Honestly I have a feeling Suicide Squad will beat everything this year.

I just want it to vanish ASAP so people here can stop having the same arguments over and over and over and over again each day about it, not because I heavily disliked the movie. Like it feels like it's been out much longer than less than a week all because of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see a problem with it doing a 2.45X and hitting 400. It's currently behind IM3 which went on to a $72.5m 2nd w/e and finished with $409m. Even if it does your generous $63m, I think $380-85m is the highest it could go. If it does $55m over the weekend as projected by BO.com then $350-360m is quite possible. As for WOM, it's Flixster score was 72% after opening weekend, not bad but not exactly good for a blockbuster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's falling behind F7 and I think the tendency due to the motives I've cited is that trend will keep going. We've used Australia numbers to predict the tendency a film has in the US in several circumstances here, the fact that DeeCee is seeing it going under F7 there as well just makes my theory stronger imho.

I don't want people to lose their jobs (except get Snyder out of the directors chair. Have him handle visuals only) but I don't want this movie to be a huge success. The potential was there for something great. If it's a big success that tells WB that audiences want more of the same thing and they can rush out another product like this. This movie should have never been this bad. (I get there's people that love it). This movie could have been great but there is excellent reasons for why so many have torn it to shreds. I still am stunned WB greenlit it and that they couldn't come up with something better after all the time they had plot wise. If it fails, we could get way better movies then what we got with the DC universe going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somebody85 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Look at what Sony was forced to do with Spider Man which "should" end up being a great thing. That could have never happened if ASM2 was a success. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel Snyder did as good as he could with a complicated movie involving Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman for the first ever time, Yeah, it's got awful reviews and it's mixed with the general audience. But a lot of people loved the movie and loved the direction WB is going for. People saying they want a big property to fail is pretty silly.... considering it could delay the DCEU even further, which obviously wouldn't be a good thing.
