Ozymandias Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I would say no, because PROM has not been as well received at ST.I think it has more to do with the genre honestly. If Prometheus 2 made more than 800m WW that would be godlike for an R-rated horror film. It would be more impressive than Avatar's run IMO.

Plain Old Tele Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 No... AVATAR's run is just ridiculous. It's on another level from anything except TITANIC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yads Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 LOL You are kidding right?Yeah, by that rationale Matrix Reloaded's $742m in 2003 was a more impressive run than Avatar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lab276 Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 It's not the equivalent of being R-rated everywhere. Here it's M which is more like PG-13 for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozymandias Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) LOL You are kidding right?Ok, maybe not entirely more impressive, but 800-900m for R-rated scifi horror would be ridiculous. Avatar was an easy as shit to follow 4 quadrant movie that is accessible to everyone. And I'm not trashing Avatar in anyway here, I defended that movie pretty hard back on BOM when it came out.

Plain Old Tele Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 If AVATAR made "only" $1.5b WW, I could understand people not realizing how impressive it was. But $2.7 freaking billion! It made more overseas than TITANIC total, and TITANIC still curb stomps every other franchise by $500m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yads Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Yeah I thought Avatar was lousy, but its box office performance is beyond criticism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozymandias Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 So Prometheus still has Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain, and China to open in? Did I miss any? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PierceHawthorne Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Guys, do you think it will hit at least 250 overseas?! 350 minimum should guarantee a sequel, considering the low budget. I"d be really happy with 400. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Marvel Fanboy Posted June 24, 2012 Author Share Posted June 24, 2012 350M WW will happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moviedweeb Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 I hope $350m WW guarantees a sequel. I need one for this film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozymandias Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 (edited) Is this a good total for this point?I think so. When you think about it, half of Europe(Germany, Italy, Spain, Poland) and Asia's biggest markets(Japan, China), haven't even opened yet. If Prometheus does 180m OS before any of those open, i think 400m WW is possible. 360m WW is locked.
