Noctis Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Well I feel it deserves to, and if 1 person feels that, so do many others.You're not going to find many people who will say that TPM is better than TTT, DH1, or The Lion King. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) You're not going to find many people who will say that TPM is better than TTT, DH1, or The Lion King.TPM is more talked about than any of those movies. So it may not be better but it`s certainly more poplar topic of conversation. Edited February 12, 2012 by fishnets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAR Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 How is 23 million disappointing for a film that already made 924 million ww prior to this. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Well, I for one am glad that TPM will hit a billion. It deserves it imo. And I'm not entirely sure TDKR will hit a billion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kowhite Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) Who the fuck is talking about Lion King except Broadway crowd?Um...a lot of people? I mean, it recently opened to $30M and $94M total at the box office in its release...at the very least, more people wanted to watch it than TPM.And unlike Phantom Menace, it's not a crappy movie.

TLK's release was spectacular. But it did have some things going for it that the phantom menace didn't. IMO, TPM is a better film as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 It's okay, The Dark Knight Rises will be in the top 10 knocking Episode 1 out. The movie which doesn't deserve to be there is that shitty Transformers film. How the heck did it gross 1.1 billion? TDKR and TH will outgross it, don't worry.

rcalcagn Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 The poor multiplier for Phantom Menace is the bad thing; it was the only film to drop on Saturday. I guess only the really devoted, and I mean REALLY devoted, all came on Friday. I can't imagine it having that great of legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Bieber's Never Say Never. It too opened on the same weekend last year and it too fell on saturday. It went on to have a 2.5X which means if TPM follows suit, it will end with about 58 mill. That's where I think it will land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) 58M sounds good to me. The sooner they release ROTS the better. Those 4 movies are the ones most people want to see. Edited February 12, 2012 by CJohn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was the guinea pig. With this one doing okay, then it paves the way for the other 5 to do even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Yes, sorry, I didn't explain it enough. I agree Clones will be the lowest grossing. But even if it does 75 mill WW, it's still good enough to be sure that the other four will be released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
