LOL so they adjusted the estimate but are acting like they said this last night before west coast showtimes.

And they still have the 36-38 number in the article too 

[WrathOfHan]

Another range?

EXCLUSIVE: And so summer begins early in late April. We have very early industry estimates showing Disney/Marvel’s Avengers: Infinity War between $40M-$45M for Thursday night, and west coast showtimes have yet to kick in. Should that projection maintain into the night, it would easily be the best Marvel preview ever, stepping over Avengers: Age of Ultron ($27.6M) and the second best ever tying with Star Wars: The Last Jedi ($45M) and filing behind Star Wars: The Force Awakens first night ($57M).

That's still a huge range for the morning of, but a massive # no matter what. OW record is likely going down.

[Samarus]

Finally. Good number.

nope.  Not applying any rules.  I fully own up to my optimism about this movie is gut feeling (in context of what data we have about presales/tracking) and having liked the movie a lot

That's fine. I wasn't even saying the film will make 2.4X. all I said was that 200M+ and 190M+ aren't that different, it's an arbitrary cut off.

Sure hope no other massive blockbusters made 50% of their OW total on Friday. Certainly not ones with really good word of mouth that made nearly 4x over their OW. released within three months of BvS. That'd just make your post really awkward.

I assume you are talking about TFA? Which was received well?

[Lordmandeep]

What is the percentage that people see for IW for a percentage of Previews for the weekend total?

 

TFA: 24%
TLJ: 20%

RO: 18%

BP: 12%

CW/AOU= 14%

 

 

I cannot see it being more frontloaded than RO so I think the opening weekend range is around 222-250 million right now as a base.

He, now all the “this doesn’t feel like an event in my neighborhood “, “I don’t feel any buzz for this” people will become “this will have horrible legs” people.

It has done it. First film in 8 years to enter the top 10 of IMDB 

 

9. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966)

10. Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

11. Fight Club (1999)

The world "exclusive" has lost all meaning in today's media. Same as "breaking".

Yes, I'm making an oblique reference to TFA, which was very well received. WOM has very little to do with OW.

And one of the fastest to leave it, I think. Superhero movies released in the last 5 years tend to peak there early and then go into a freefall.

[Brainbug]

There are ALREADY pirated clips of Infinity War on YouTube with big ass spoilers in the titles and thumbnails. I just got heavily spoiled just from looking at the YouTube main page.

 

I just wanted to warn everyone here.
