Actual already purchased ticket sales that I can verify with my own two eyes show that I was ever so slightly off. To put this in Old Man On Porch speak that we are both very familiar with and to channel the no-longer-with-us-on-this-board BKB: The Parking Lots are packed with nary a tumbleweed to be seen. Nicely done. 🤣 Thanks for bringing a smile to my face tonight. I needed it. Been having a bit of a rough day, but you cheered me up. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take away a few mill because of the pandemic. And this is strictly about domestic, isn't it? The thing is, we can actually see tickets that have ALREADY been purchased. That is what is driving a lot of the discussion here, not enthusiasm for the movie or worry about how people feel about the pandemic. Like I said. Just be prepared to be pleasantly surprised. Or shocked, even. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just foolish imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menor the Destroyer Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 (edited) I think we exhausted this point already in the other contest's thread. At this point it's only a week away so no point in getting heated over this. Edited December 11, 2021 by Menor 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john2000 Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 800-900 mill dom are probably unrealistic though its christmas and who the hell know how the WOM will be, i could easily see a A+ cinemascore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I agree it’s unlikely, I don’t think it’s foolish per se. This is (potentially) pointing to an opening north of $250M (though I would say closer to $220M) but Christmas legs of 3x or more wouldn’t be impossible or even improbable. We will see how it goes. As long as it’s over Avengers DOM and my club succeeds, that’s all I really care about 🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cap Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Just popping in for a second. I don’t have any numbers or predictions, because I am not going to participate since I am not eligible. I think there is a difference between being cautious about numbers, and not adapting to new data. There is substantial amount of data in the tracking thread that can tell us What’s going on next weekend. I’ve been really vocal about not getting too excited at the large pre-sales. But we’re getting close enough to the release date, that the writings pretty much on the wall. I also want to stress that my quote/unquote pessimism was really just a moderation tactic. I would much rather us be in a scenario where we all think it’s going to make 100 million opening weekend, and then are excited that it makes 200 million opening weekend. Instead of a scenario where we all think it’s going to make 300 million opening weekend, it only makes 200 million opening weekend. And somehow that’s a disappointment. That has been my driving force behind all of my Spider-Man posts over the past month. TL;DR As Mel Brooks says, hope for the best expect the worst. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoyed both of the Holland Spider-man films, quite a bit. I enjoyed the hell out of IW and EG. I'm just not convinced that we are out of the pandemic yet and this means that mega grossing films aren't going to come back yet. Me saying it will "only" do about 340 mill is not a sleight against it. Are you on drugs? $340m? Are you living in the real world? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
