blackspider Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 "There’s dissension among my sources over just how big Lionsgate’s holdover The Hunger Games will be this weekend despite two major releases opening against it." Wary of that 24M number. It may be a million or two too high. Makes you wonder if there was even a higher number. Unlikely I know, but maybe Nikki just picked the number she thought was right.

riczhang Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 And I'm just going to say that if it actually is 24M that would put 85M in play for the weekend, absolutely unlikely I know, but it would be a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackspider Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 As I've been saying for a week now I've been right there with you. I was comparing this thing to SM1 and HP1 on numerous occasions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthdevidem01 Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 (edited) Holy balls. Maybe this is the SM1 of this generation after all.Bigger than SM1 in attendance if it's over $500 Million. But yeah that's the closest trilogy we can compare it to.Edit: wait no it doesn't. Wow Spidey was massiver than I ever thought it was with $544m adjusted Edited March 31, 2012 by darthdevidem01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBatman Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 (edited) Damn could you just imagine if HG upsets everybody and becomes the Highest Grossing Movie of 2012. When everybody's picking Avenger The Hobbit or The Dark Knight Rises this would so come out of left field.

It's weekends today are still really impressive but knowing that it was doing those numbers 10 years ago is insane. I said earlier its 2nd weekend adjusts to like 96m. Unreal.

blackspider Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 THR spices things up a bit. "Hunger Games is projected to earn anywhere from $20 million to $23 million on Friday." They still suck at extrapolating though, saying 64m 2nd weekend. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/box-office-report-hunger-games-wrath-titans-mirror-306484 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least Nikki isn't way out there on her own now. Edited March 31, 2012 by Magic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CloneWars Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 lol at Fake, and Baumer ... Yah, really...I don't know what it is about Baumer, but he keeps downplaying this film and comparing its run to Twilight all the time. Quite annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know why I always thought the spidey movies did well but not "that" well. hmm I blame Spider-Man 3 for just putting a shroud of negativity over that trilogy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
