INFINITY WAR WEEKEND THREAD | Actuals ~ 257.698M OW (RECORD) | 106.334M Friday, 82.131M Saturday (RECORD), 69.231M Sunday (RECORD) | 640.9M Worldwide Opening (RECORD) | Read the Rules on the First Post | SALE NOW LIVE

[VGPOP]

As soon it was confirmed movie grossed "initially" 106.7 million and then Disney released official $106 million, I knew this movie would explode today Saturday. 

 

Schools were still in session yesterday Friday and movie was still able to gross $67 million in its true Friday? 

 

$67 million while schools nationwide still in session? 

 

This was all I needed to predict a "healthy" +14.0% bump from its true Friday. And now it may be looking that I could be way off... Lol

I wonder who Marvel would have picked to direct Infinity War had the Russo Brothers declined.

We are witnessing something truly historical. Surely it's beating the OW record with anything above 80M for Saturday, no?

 

On a side note...

  Reveal hidden contents

 

Finally will stop running out of likes. 150 is just too little.

 

I would hold off on that number until later. Every final estimate so far has come in lower than the officials. It could happen though. WC will be strong

Now, where is @Rthanos ?

 

When will you people learn that the only way to get him to appear is to post gratuitous pics of the dudes from the movie?

 

Edit: or not lmao

@Ethan Hunt The people demands your explanation on the “no hype” statement.

Maybe Tele could explain it with the "data" that showed this had no chance in hell of hitting $240m.

if its 80m+ that means 700m+?

Re: Spiderman getting laid, I remember reading in that recent book where the Amy Pascal sandwich story was revealed that Marvel's contract with Sony they made it so he can't lose his virginity before the age of 16 or something

Its actually incredible how little updates we are getting for a potentially record breaking weekend from the big reporting sites. I swear TFA was updated so many more times.

 

So happy we have RTH and Empirecity who give us more updates

With WC my guess is either 79 or 81. That would follow that pattern unless it just outright explodes. Record definitely in play though.

Holy shit at that $80m Sat #, that’s insane. 

[Rman823]

Weekends like this are why I love the BO. Makes it even better when it’s a franchise I love.

$78M and this needs the same Sunday drop as Avengers 1 to hit the OW record.

 

Come on, Best Coast, let's get this thing to $83M.

Stomping all over the Sat record, adjusted or not.

[Birdo Mandingo]

So basically even if it falls at the very bottom end of Rth's range it not only crushes the Sat record, but also beats the adjusted record.
