Wow, really? I really think you’re giving it a connotation that many people uisng it don’t intend then, which is just going to lead to an unnecessarily big gap between what they say and what you hear. I use “struggle” purely to indicate that a number is near the high of a possible range, and therefore has a decent probability to not be reached. I’m pretty sure that a lot of people use it the same way in a BO context, with 0 negative connotation intended.

Then why is there only two or three guys in here trying to make this out to be some kind of disappointment based on weekday numbers? It's done nothing but huge money on the weekends, dropping 55% off a record weekend, and is behaving normally on the weekdays. So why is it just you and a couple of other guys are trying to make it out to be something it's not. Do you have trouble understanding the box office? 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB33 Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 IW is mirroring GotG Vol 2 very closely this week in terms of drop/jump percentages. Now, the true test for IW will be if Friday and Saturday jumps are much bigger than last weekend or not. We're talking a Friday jump of 130% or more. If it's less, we can then begin having a serious discussion about legs not being as good as we thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NGGKroze Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 650M+ will be fantastic. There are only 5 movies into the 600M Range. MCU has 2 of them (could be 1 if Black Panther goes into 700M). So if Black Panther goes into 700M Range and Infinity War stay in 600M, the balance will be perfect and Thanos will be happy. However if Both BP and IW reach 700M then Marvel will had 2 there in that range. The Worst(not literally) is if BP and IW remained in 600M Range. HOWEVER, then there will be six 600M movies and half of them will be MCU, so the balance is perfect again and Thanos can live another day. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody is making this fucking movie out to be a disappointment. I said THIS WEDNESDAY NUMBER IS FINE. I said $675 mil would be a FINE NUMBER, and $2B WW would be GREAT. Do you honestly not know how to read? Or have you guys been playing victim for years and you can't get it out of your system? 3 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every day where it has a drop comparable to Ultron is a day it risks falling short of BP. And I'd say 90% of the members here would say that the drop on Wednesday is normal. Might want to think before you post something insulting and asinine next time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Craig Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 @ChipMunky is a diehard DC loonie and he's attempting to come off as objective now. However, he falls into his own category of troll when talking AIW numbers. I totally read the passive aggressive with negative underpinnings in his post. 7 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
