XXRDJisDoctorDoom Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Avatar 2 will have it’s time in 10 months. Let’s focus on something a little more immediate. Batman predictions for the UK? Can it do £45M? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it can't beat those after 10 years with CBMs becoming bigger and bigger in the UK, then it's pretty much failed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I know it's still in some theaters and having been at 96.6M for a couple of months I was curious £96.674.033. It grossed £7.429 last weekend. BFI just updated it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By that logic is it a failure if it grossed less than 440M in NA? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people agree Avatar 2 at least should do those numbers. I expect it get near 80m Euro, so I am not sure what you are arguing with us for.

Avatar did £94M but that was over $150M at the time. 75-85% in USD would actually be an increase in LC for most places. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My expectation is £60-75M for it. You made my point which was it’s unlikely to gross 75-85% of the USD. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people agree Avatar 2 at least should do those numbers. I expect it get near 80m Euro, so I am not sure what you are arguing with us for. I wasn't necessarily arguing with you, I was just posting my thoughts. And as @PenguinXXR says, I said 75-85% of Avatar's dollar gross in Europe (overall), not 75-85% of its 94m GBP gross in the UK. Due to the exchange rate differences, Avatar 2 will need to do significantly more than 75-85% of Avatar in local currencies in order to make 75-85% of its dollar gross across Europe overall, especially in the markets where local currency ticket prices have increased (e.g. the UK, Germany, Russia) in order to offset bigger dollar gross declines in markets like Spain and Italy (due to declining local currency ticket prices) and in Russia (the RUB now being worth around 35-40% of what it was worth against the USD in 2010). So yes, you'd need a gross in the UK approaching or exceeding Avatar's £94m to hit 75-85% of Avatar's dollar gross in Europe overall. I think that's perfectly doable, especially with the average ticket prices we're seeing at the moment for No Way Home and even more so with whatever Avatar 2's average ticket price ends up being.

I wouldn’t think any serious analyst would have a clue what to predict for Avatar 2. some of the expectations of people on here I’m finding pretty alarming. I’m usually very bullish on sequels to behemoths. This one though? Honestly haven’t a clue how big it will be. Cameron making four sequels to it seems like the biggest gamble in film history. And he’s gambled plenty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eduardo Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 There is a lot of movies right now in theaters and some more coming in the next 2 months, and this thread is debating a movie (Avatar 2) wich posible don't come out this year. Give dailies numbers or previous of existing BO and left those presumptions rest in peace. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter if numbers are low, is important we give numbers for the perception of this box office to grow. Be a reference and some times a little addictive for some of us.

Cooper Legion Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Numbers get posted when there are new ones, usually Friday if we get some weekly cumes reported or sun/mon for wknd estimates and then actuals. It’s fine to chat about past or future performance in the market when it isn’t interrupting that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
