htall90 Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 If it's any good could be huge biggest hit of the year maybe can only really see The Hobbit 2 breaking £50 mil as well here this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted February 7, 2013 Author Share Posted February 7, 2013 This year there's a lot of big hits, but lack of any monster hits like Skyfall, DH2, TS3 etc. Should work out fine though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
htall90 Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 You never known something could breakout. what do u think will be top 5 for the year i think hobbit 2, MU and iron man 3 defo top 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted February 7, 2013 Author Share Posted February 7, 2013 Hobbit, Monsters University, Les Mis may get in there as it's heading for near £40m. Iron Man 3, possibly Catching Fire and maybe Star Trek 2. A few other contenders aswell... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
htall90 Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 I honestly thought Les mis would be bigger but still $47 mil and counting is impressive. Iron man 3 should scrap in will be like a diet version of The Avengers Hobbit 2 will increase slightly i think. Catching fire to do $60 mil here books have exploded in popularity. 1 TH 2 - $90 mil 2 MU- $ 80 mil 3 iron man 3- $65 mil 4 CF- $ 60 mil 5 Les mis- $60 mil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCS Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Die Hard is now on sale everywhere. I have Wreck-It at £3.5m, should win the weekend. Yep, between £3M-£4M seems to be the most likely scenario for WIR this weekend. Let's hope it does it! Yeah. £50m potential there. Definitely! Pixar + Monsters Inc. sequel will make it huge!

Something will break out too to fill the void of no 100% huge hit like Bond or Potter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because everyone had it £25-30m, I think I was the highest with £40m. That would keep it ahead of Star Trek, IM3, Man of Steel and Catching Fire.

The Dark Alfred Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 MU will win the year. I doubt that IM3 does more than Les Mis, CF maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 MU will win the year. I doubt that IM3 does more than Les Mis, CF maybe. I'm not sure what Catching Fire can do. 18 months between installments can definitely expand the fan base though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would keep it ahead of Star Trek, IM3, Man of Steel and Catching Fire. I was expecting it to be huge because i could not escape people talking about it during january maybe it's just people i know but £40 mil is huge still should be top 5 for the year unless a load of movies over perform.

I think it can slightly iwas well received in the Uk compare to the US from what i heard i personally enjoyed. What kept people away from the 1st was lack of much going on which will be much different with the 2nd so i predicting a small increase based on more happening and smaug.

Catching fire will do twilight numbers maybe bigger thats why I predicted $60 mil it's popularity has shot up since the 1st the 1st was not popular relatively it benefit from a lack of other big movies during march last year. It is now the big movie for young women it is also more popular among men then twilight due to there being more action then twilight and being less soppy lol! So i think it will be top 5 of the year here. Edited February 8, 2013 by htall90 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted February 8, 2013 Author Share Posted February 8, 2013 Yeah, $60m+ is definitely doable for Catching Fire. The Hunger Games has more appeal than Twilight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yh although i thought the 1st was overrated it was way better then twilight the last few twilights have made over $50 mil each so $60 mil is possible for CF.

Heretic Posted February 8, 2013 Author Share Posted February 8, 2013 Don't imagine it'd open higher than £1m. The market is quite saturated at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
