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

[spizzer]

She's saying 68M+75M is possible at this point

[riczhang]

Check the title. It says it in the article now too.

NVM, see it now.

[Cedarpoint1111]

Did it go down? Her first estimate was 60m.

She did 60-65 and then changed to 60-64, and now she just went up again to 68. She is all over the place this chick...

[GiantCALBears]

Over under how many newspapers use this exact headline, "Avengers Assemble to Shatter Opening Weekend Box Office Record"

[riczhang]

She's saying 68M+75M is possible at this point

75M is kinda wishful thinking, that's a 6% drop from FRI+MID to SAT. But, if it is that's just fucking awesome.

[RTX]

It'll go up from 68M, but let's extrapolate anyway18.7M Midnights61.8M Friday68.0M Saturday (+10.0%)49.3M Sunday (-27.5%)197.8M OWSunday drop is a bit conservative IMO

Is this the most attended weekend ever?

I don't think it'll happen, but it's possible. It's already above my projected 66M.Sunday's going to be huge. There's just too much demand right now that still needs to be burned off quickly

[spizzer]

Is this the most attended weekend ever?

No, it's around 20.5M tickets, under TDK and SM3

[Lordmandeep]

Update again ^^^Its 68++++ WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Also this will drop a max of 32%No film has ever dropped over that on this weekend and frankly the bigger the Saturdays actually the better the Sunday holds...

[Cedarpoint1111]

Is this the most attended weekend ever?

Definitely

[Kvikk Lunsj]

Is this the most attended weekend ever?

I think TDK and SM3 both hit 200m with 3D.

[spizzer]

Is this the most attended weekend ever?

It won't take the attendance record unless it hits 210-215M (depending on 3D share for OW)

[GiantCALBears]

Gotta counter the no love for Spidey...

1. TDK

2. Spider-Man 2

3. Avengers (Tentative)

4. Spider-Man

5. Superman

6. Batman Begins

7. X2

8. X-Men First Class

9. Batman

10. Iron Man

11. Kick Ass

12. Thor

13. Captain America

14. Iron Man 2

15. Superman II

16. X-Men

17. The Crow

18. Superman Returns

19. The Incredible Hulk

20. Watchmen

So where in the list is Spidey 3??? We'd all love to know

[redfirebird2008]

Here is my list prior to seeing Avengers. I would probably put it in the same neighborhood as IM1 or TDK, which would put it 6th or 7th on my list. But I still need to see it more to truly rate it. These other movies have held up during numerous repeat viewings.1. Batman Begins2. Batman: Mask of the Phantasm3. Superman: The Movie4. Batman (1989)5. X2: X-Men United6. Iron Man7. The Dark Knight8. Batman Returns9. X-Men: First Class10. Batman: Under The Red Hood

[Fake]

Nikki also saying 68m+ Sat? Awesome!!

[Eldenfirefly]

So, 185m OW? or even higher ?

[spizzer]

Definitely

Nope, it's not. Not unless Saturday is at 75M

[spizzer]

So, 185m OW? or even higher ?

No. 200M

[Cedarpoint1111]

Oh... Well it is if you don't count midnights, right?

[riczhang]

Oh... Well it is if you don't count midnights, right?

Nope, I believe TDK sold more tickets either way. And probably SM3 as well.
