spizzer Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 That's the smart approach. TDK and DH2's Friday numbers were both overestimated by $1m.But both went up with actuals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackspider Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 (edited) That's the smart approach. TDK and DH2's Friday numbers were both overestimated by $1m.They've already revised it from 68.3m to 68m flat. Wonder if it will change again.

redfirebird2008 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 But both went up with actualsThat's because their Sundays were underestimated. TDK's Sunday went up by $4m, but the weekend only went up by $3m because Friday was overestimated by $1m. Was $68m on Sunday morning and ended up at $67m actual. Same thing with Potter, which was $92m and dropped to $91m with the actual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceroll Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Even if Sunday does go up, I doubt it will go up 3.4m to beat TDK. That would require a 20.8% drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would require a 20.8% drop.It's not out of the realm of possbility. We're all thinking it's in store for an increase. Question is how much?

vc2002 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Much better than small. Sunday projection was pretty conservative. We haven't heard from Nikki tonight, which is odd. When TDK's Sunday overperformed, she did an update around 8 PM Pacific saying it was headed for well over $40m. :oIf THG beats TDK's OW, DOM is it gonna be a bigger franchise than HP? I mean the first goddamn film opened to 150m+, and unlike Twilight that people love to compare with, THG actually has great reviews which is the same for HP1. Holy crap what the sequel could do if the quality holds up? 180m OW and 450m? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 It's not out of the realm of possbility. We're all thinking it's in store for an increase. Question is how much?It's kept pace most of the day so I don't think a 3.4 million increase is out of the question.In other news the downtown theatre is down to one unsoldout show now. 10:05pm sold out.

iceroll Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 During my screening some guy shouted something really funny when she did that. I think it was "yeah bitch" or something like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totem Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 This is getting ridiculous. Absolutely stoked for it, very deserving. Haven't seen the film yet but I trust the opinions of people on this site and it looks like they did a good job.155m. Holy cannoli. 400m seems very possible.

My 2:40 probably had 99% capacity, pretty sure that's considered a sell out. A group of people decided to sit on the stairs because there weren't enough seats in a row to sit together. The theater even looked busier as we were leaving. Probably a few more sellouts or close to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing with Potter, which was $92m and dropped to $91m with the actual.I think The Dark Knight was actually at $67.5m before dropping down to $67.2m. It was also estimated at $66.4m on Saturday lol. Obviously someone at WB was using their batman earnings on dope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 $450m isn't even out of the question for THG now.Agree. As far as the franchise question, isn't this one only going to have three movies? Potter had 8. THG definitely has the potential to make more money (domestic) per film, but beating the 8-film total for the HP franchise is pretty much impossible with only 3 movies.

Totem Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 The last one is being split in two I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 That is a bit insane.....Crazy thing is it's not though. A 2.9x multi is all it will take now, essentially the same as Twilight got. And if its OW is closer to $160m with actuals then it will only need more like a 2.8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
