Jonwo Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Skyfall is doing phenomenal business, I imagine the next two Bond films won't perform as well but still gross a lot of money, I wonder if the 50th birthday is having an effect in a way, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I think this is Adele effect. Nobody gives any damn about an anniversary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I think this is Adele effect. Nobody gives any damn about an anniversary.Really? You think it made that much money because Adele sung a theme song that can easily be found on YouTube?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted November 2, 2012 Author Share Posted November 2, 2012 I doubt anyone would watch a movie just because a particular artist sings the theme song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCS Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I think the 50th anniversary with all the related marketing played a huge role! As well as Adele and the four year gap! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCS Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 (edited) More articles:http://www.screendai...le?referrer=RSShttp://www.hollywood...ce-record385817For Skyfall to be beating DH2 in it's first week is just amazing, almost lost for words. [skyfall has]...the biggest seven day gross in UK box office history.Just read those words and let them sink in.

Fake Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Really? You think it made that much money because Adele sung a theme song that can easily be found on YouTube?!?It is all in the psychological effects of advertising. Continuous exposure to Adele's song may have acted as a sub-conscious push in the decision-making process of seeing the movie, like the TV-spots do all the time.
