Hiccup Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Unfortunately, that should steal away just about any remaining audience that might give it a try. I'd imagine we're looking at another 55-60%+ drop.It should make between 2.4M-2.0M this up coming weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

friendofnarnia Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Okay guys. We can dispute and argue about how The Hunger Games fell on Tuesday and how it will definitely fall on Wednesday. But Tuesday it fell -4%. Yeah 4%. That is excellent. Also we can argue if it will or will not reach 350M or 400M but really guys. Who thought a week or two ago this would be at $173.7M in five days and for sure finish somewhere over 325M. Whatever it makes from here on is fantastic since it is a first film in a series. I am amazed at this film's run. Yeah, I predicted 375M total because I knew the demand was there, I just didn't realize how many people wanted to see it opening weekend! That was the real shocker! 173.7M in five days for a non-sequel in March? Awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Ticket sale wise, this film is likely to pass the final instalment of a hugely popular franchise that sold 20 times the number of books and people are complaining about a 6% drop during a march weekday?? There seems to be no way of pleasing you lot.QFMFT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robertron Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Pretty good drop if you ask me. Over $10m on non-summer Tuesday is pretty good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackspider Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Nice it went up about 150k with actuals. I'm predicting about a 18% drop today to around 8.5m. Then a 5% drop on Thursday to 8m. It's shaping up to have a good 2nd weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seduh Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 great number for HG, it could have been higher but also lower, a 4% drop coming froma veri big monday (a $10 in march is very very very rare). If it stays above $8 for friday then a +$18 friday is assured and a $65 second weekend is on track. $375 is a very likely finish (if not higher) SM3 finish with $340 and have awful legs, HG will have better legs, count on it!

blackspider Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I'd give it about 57 mill of an 8 mill Thurs.I don't get why you are being so pessimistic toward this film. That would be less than SM3's 2nd weekend which was coming off a 5.9m Thursday. Your 110% increase prediction for Friday makes no sense. It's gonna be a lot higher than that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spizzer Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Using my own rather complicated, calculus based method of projecting daily grosses using dailies of comparable films, (a method that tends to get more accurate later in a film's run) extrapolating this against Alice in Wonderland gives me a Wednesday number of 8.985 million, for a drop of 13.2% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spizzer Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Also, my current projected total still stands at 418.4 million Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
