department store basement Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 (edited) Ratchet's gone from my area, so is Boss. Barbershop and BvS are all but gone. It's the least # of movies here there's been with frequent showtimes in a while - the 2 new releases, CW, Keanu, MD, Huntsman, TJB, and Zoo. Of note, there's still a theater near me playing Purple Rain. There must be huge demand for that one.

So maybe even 800m might not necessarily be locked. oh wow. even though it's putting huge numbers, coming below 806 of im3 will be something. cause in china alone it's gonna be up ~75m over IM3 (if it does ~195m).

jeremybelmondo Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 If this makes a mid 70's second weekend which is quite likely, it will still lag about 15 to 17 million behind Ultron. I think this will ultimately gross anything between 420 and 435 for a very similar IM3 final WW box office Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somebody85 Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Huh seems harsher then usual. Wonder if the online copy is affecting it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of my friends were talking about it over lunch. Gifs and movie clips are everywhere. Apparently an even better version hit today at 1080 and is the top torrent today. I'm wondering how it's effecting it too because that last copy was damn good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's usually said that people who pirate weren't going to pay to see it anyway. Yeah it shouldn't for initial viewings. Rewatches is a different story... And a lot of comments on KA were about just that. Like "Thank you, I was planning on going to rewatch this but couldn't get friends together. Now I can just watch it from home." This is really unusual to see this early. Cams happen but not like in screener quality. I would be surprised if it's not effecting it in some way (even if small).

I'll say this much: I hope I catch someone doing this when I'm at the movies cause I will rat their ass out and have them arrested.. The source usually comes from overseas. It's been Asia lately and it doesn't look like it's a cam. That's why it got so much attention. Not sure how they did it. I think its a rip off the actual film reel, someone didn't sit in the theater. 37 minutes ago, a2knet said: I wonder how much effect the new copy has on the performance of the old copy. Not much, the first version is still being seeded more but this one is also up there. Overall the release was seen by a ton of people. New version has 7,000 people, First has 16,400 (with 809 comments all giving it high marks). One of many: "My grandpa loves superhero movies as much as i do, but can't go to the theater right now because of some health stuff. Brought this over and watched it with him. Blew his mind. Thank you so much!" I don't know if you were being sarcastic or not, just providing the actual data lol Edited May 13, 2016 by somebody85 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree that this is very unusual, both the quality and right after the opening weekend. I haven't seen any decent quality GIF of BVS yet. This will definitly hurt repeat viewing, but not sure by how much. The impact on China's box office will be pretty big too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BvS had a decent quality version hit about 2 weeks ago. You can see some of the GIFs in the Wonder Woman thread. The difference there though is there was a watermark in the bottom right hand corner for a lot of it and a lot more subtitles. When it first released, a really low quality cam was all that was available. Nothing like the quality of Civil War. The Civil War copy has very little subtitles and was released the Sunday night of the US release. I saw a lot of comments mentioning rewatches so I think it has to in some form but hopefully not too much. The new one that's the current top download actually has worse colors then the original from screens. Edited May 13, 2016 by somebody85 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I pirated this movie, and you tried ratting me out, I'd knock you to the floor, finish my pirating whilst you lay unconscious then as the credits role, remove the film and leave the camera in your hands, rat you out and get a nice reward to go with my civil war copy.
