Avengers: Endgame Tuesday Thread (4/30): 33.11M (3rd best Tuesday ever, 2nd best non-opening)

[SteveJaros]

BTW, are these $37m and $35m grosses Monday and Tuesday good numbers or do they represent "falling off a cliff" relative to the opening weekend?

keeping on repeating Global inflation (and domestic inflation, something no one ever considers when adjusting for foreign exchange rate), and market expansion does get tired, but I can't help it, each time I see someone tries to adjust Avatar (legitimately a top 3 greatest worldwide run ever) for foreign exchange rate without adjusting for inflation and market expansion, I just feeling like chiming in.

They are terrible numbers. They didnt even set daily records. Endgame is probably looking at a sub 500M DOM total.

37 and 33. But the numbers are good, yes, slightly better overall drops than IW.

Awful. Theaters are actually gonna get rid of End Game in preparation for the real event movie of the year

Funny enough which were probably some members predictions (and to a degree understandably so) before Infinity War came out

Looks like 37 and 33. Good numbers. The Mon+Tues % of OW is similar but a bit better than TA and IW

I think we should just accept the fact that both Avatar and EG are phenomenons without constantly trying to adjust to make EG "win". I want EG to beat Avatar worldwide but that doesn't take away from what that movie was able to do in 2009.

The Monday number was a great hold, better than Infinity War or the Avengers.  The Tuesday number would be a bigger drop than either movie.  These aren't super predictive though, because IW had better Monday and Tuesday holds than TA did.

I meant Avatar specifically as i think its a special situation with that film for reasons i think have been discussed to death

 

1. what Brainbug said

2. why do it in the dailies? There has to be an area for people not wanting to see the xxxxxxxx-time the same discussion (Avatar).

 

Its like cancer, it spreads into every high earning movie's thread, into dailies, into country's thread, into where-ever someone starts to shoehorn it into.

FWIW, Avenger's opening DOM weekend gross of $357m is equal inflation-wise to an $80m opening in 1977 (Star Wars) and a $220m opening weekend in 1997 (Titanic).

I had to double check, but holy heck, it is.  (It's actually even a bit more).  That's very cool.  #ItsASign

I always find it extremely hard to "adjust" Avatars run. There are so many factors - 3D, Inflation, Exchange rates, market growth - that i think we should really only use the actual 2,78B number and work with that without trying to adjust anything.

Yes, 3D is a factor, but I don't really think adjusting for it is necessary. I always thought if audiences are willing to pay 3D surcharges to see a movie in a premium format, then the movie fully deserves the higher box office if gets. Secondly, I think 3D subcharge might have an effect in deflating tickets sold, for example, if I was going to have a second viewing  of Gravity in theater under normal circumstances, because I liked it so much, expensive 3D ticket might prevent me from doing so.

i see this discussion about Avatar or EG, but i think Titanic WW adjusted today will be 3,5 billion, so the real champ is this one
