Also since both @Grand Moff Tele and @Christmas Baumer are here can you please disable my following notifications? I don't want a bell, I don't want an email, I want to post in peace. I just tried again to disable it and now I'm following the thread again. Please help!

For what it's worth they originally had a 65-70m range.

 

All I'm saying, is that I'd take the over on any of Disney's "projections, guesses, or predictions" until they are actually reporting data.

How recent is this? It's dated at 1:18... and how useful is a Disney prediction anyway? They notoriously lowball their success before delivering an actual estimate.

Yes, that article is using the early afternoon numbers. Out of date at this point.

Here's what the West Coast thinks of the Trump boycott.

I've done that already, I'll try it again though. Thanks!

Did Trump actually boycott this movie? Or are you just referencing his issue with minorities?

Thanks for posting the only worthwhile moment of Godzilla to spare those poor souls who might waste time watching it. Your service does not go unnoticed.

If not for me this thread would be boring. I'm the closest reason R1 will ever get to being an event. BOW.

Certain Trump supporters claimed the movie had an anti-Trump message planted in the film and neo nazis/the alt right called for an outright boycott for the multiculturalism and feminism "agenda" featured in RO.

80?

Fake story by lying liars. Basket of snakes.

Maybe that's the reason why a certain poster here hates this movie.

That remains to be seen. Your sample size is 0 if RO and TFA are immune. There aren't any other big December openers that have summer legs.

 

Not big enough

 

You're totally entitled to your opinion though. But I'm done arguing because you just don't have the data size to back it up.

 

If you forever confine yourself to thinking within the realms of things that have happened in the past then you're never going to make any good estimates. Half the big blockbusters released over the past year were hugely surprising in some aspect or another: TFA's huge opening in December (which I'm sure you predicted to be high, by the way, despite the similar lack of evidence as with this), BvS's historically bad multiplier, American Sniper's performance in January, F7's performance in China, etc. If you don't think outside the box sometimes then you're never going to get anything right.

 

Good luck with your predictions.

If we're going to make any association with R1 and Trump it should be about how both should be buried in landfills never to be seen or heard from again.

Like I said, sometimes these things tend to just keep going up. Most famous since I've been here was JW.

 

Avengers. I'll never forget how nuts this place went when Rth dropped that 80 burger (it's what made him a board celebrity!)

 

Back in the day when an 80M was a big deal, lol

I love going to see highly anticipated movies on a Saturday morning. Taking my son and/or daughters to Waffle House then strolling into the theater with my ideal reserve seating awaiting.

 

Only downside is a miss all the juicy spoiler discussion from the first couple of nights.
