But remember my friend that TDK itself benefited from Ledge's death. Else 200-250 was very max it was making. LOL at the dark Flop. Less than the Iron Man ones nearly 400 million. #KalLogic #BeLogiKal

What if WB or Nolan killed Ledger to prevent a flop? :jeb!:????

Fourth time tonight. It's so damn good. Maybe my favorite Star Wars of all. At the same time as it's pretty much the same conflict as in the OT (which I love), it is also seem to be on the same train of thought as the PT was and in line with Lucas on vision of what Star Wars is supposed to be. Man.... Goosebumps.

Holy shit at that TGOTT increase 

That happens a lot whilst they are working on incoming data, seldom to that degree, but often over or under the real actual, as long as the font is green = estimates.  But I have to say, that one too made me my head scratch

 

edit, see one page earlier, where I posted e.g. Universal, that here would be the actual for it

Yes, because I obviously let my opinion get in the way of logic.  That's why I made an entire thread praising The Potter films and how there would never be another series of films like them box office wise.  

 

I just don't understand what an even t film is for you if you don't think T2, which I was alive for, wasn't a huge even in the summer of 91 and if you don't think Frozen, which had an 800 multiplier.

 

And you can accuse me of a lot of things, being stubborn and biased towards something when the numbers have proven otherwise, is definitely not me.

In terms of discussing what qualifies as a box office event, I'm probably letting my opinion get in the way the least of anyone. I gave a firm statistical cutoff for movies that I'd considered events (somewhere around top 50 admissions). I don't think that's an unrealistic cutoff either, seeing as how saying 50+ films were events is still an awful lot of films. Say too many were an event and it simply becomes too ordinary of an occurrence to be true. If I love The Hunger Games, it doesn't matter. It still doesn't pass the bar for what I consider a box office event.

No, and no.

 

What you think to be a box office event is entirely your opinion. At least some other people here recognize that we don't all get to define what words and terms mean based on just our opinions. It's clear that you use the word "event" more restrictively than would be understood by most people according to general usage of the word. I'm new to box office, but the consensus of posters on this thread with knowledge of the film industry appears to be that they also use the term "event film" more broadly than you do.

 

As for statistical cutoff? There is nothing statistical about the completely arbitrary cutoff you chose.

Serious question:

 

While I think I was wrong about R1 making 450 and having about a 3 multiplier, do you guys think that New moon and Eclipse and DH2 would have made 400 million+ if released at Christmas instead of when it did?

DH2, yes. Twilight might have gotten to $330-345 million DOM, but $400 million is too much for a franchise that doesn't have four-quadrant appeal

I've put him on ignore for the next week or so, but according to the quotes other do, he seems to seriously belief it isn't obvious how he tries to cut the definitions for the term with only one goal in mind = to twist till SW R1 looks not like an event.

I use the term usually never, not even to my pupils or.. but to me it is too childish, no matter how old he might be (or she?). IMHO 10 to 20 posts (to rant AND to....), o.K., but it starts to be an impertinence for the readers not interested into that monologue IMHO.
