May 4, 2012 Weekend (AVENGERS Opening Discussion): ACTUAL 207.4 mill!!!!

[Poseidon]

200Mio is within reach. It's a long way from here, but it's doable and not a ridiculous prediction anymore. Look at Spider Man 3s sunday drop. And remember how IMAX is a bigger factor now than 5 years ago, so "The Avengers" could even drop better.It just needs to jump 7% on Saturday and drop by 20% on Sunday and wouldn't it be an incredibly nice story, that a Marvel movie would open to that magical number, exactly one decade after another Marvel movie crossed the 100Mio mark for the first time?

Post of the day! +111111100

I continue to use the prices provided by the Consumerist, adjusted for inflation

I calculate about 52m :SThen again i dont know if what im calculating is the same thing. This is friday day totals if there was no 3D Edited May 5, 2012 by eXtacy

Guys, who would have thought that Choco would have been the most accurate predictor for TA's OD. (you guys read wrong, she typed 80M OD )

[fishstick]

I`m so happy.

[Chewy]

I`m so happy.

You'll be even happier after you see it

The theater a mile away from me has a showing in 3D/2D from 12:30am to 10:30 pm every 30 minutes! Thats insane for my area. The theater two miles away is about the same!

[Fake]

I came up with $69m excluding 3D (30% higher prices on 60% of tickets).

It is more like 35% on 50% of tickets, but the end result would be quite close, yeah.

[redfirebird2008]

Here's what I came up with:

OD Total = $80.5m

3D Share = $48.3m (60% of total gross)

Adjusted 3D Share = $37.1m (30% lower)

2D Share = $32.2m (40% of total gross)

Adjusted opening day in 2D = $69.3m

I think 63% males is good sign that families didn't see it yesterday and should see it today.

I`m so happy.

I think my favorite part of this is Nikki being off by $15m

Hey guys, I gotta go. Enjoy history. Peace.

TA won't even need a Saturday jump. It just needs Spiderman 3 like drops and it's at $200m. Edited May 5, 2012 by lilmac

Theaters should be adding more shows on Saturday and Sunday.

I`m so happy.

...and blames AMC's credit card processing problems to boot!

[vc2002]

Does anyone think TA has a shot at the 2nd wknd record?

[Accursed Arachnid!™]

"No record."
