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

[ecstasy]

Went to a theater for a showing today, sold out, then drove to another theater with a line about 100 people long that had its showings sold out, then drove back to the first theater and bought tickets for the showing in an hour to prevent being sold out. Both theaters were a zoo.Audience erupted in applause 10 times during the film (sold out of course lol).

LOL Awesome.

Will Rth update Sunday numbers later？

[BoxOfficeZ]

I'll bet to you Disney will fudge it if its a few million off.

[MovieMan89]

Disney took a ton of rightly owed shit for Carter, but they really did a helluva job selling this to such a huge audience.

Yeah, oceans of difference between those 2 marketing campaigns. To be fair though it was also about a billion times easier to market a movie like TA over one like JC.

Will Rth update Sunday numbers later？

Possibly. Someone earlier said he posted before. He said Sunday was looking very strong.

Good to know that！

[CloneWars]

Of course in 10 years the baseline price for a movie will be $20...so yeah that should happen.Had not thought of that, funny, but as noted it's blasted past 90% of comic films the same way, even Marvel ones.

What's really funny is that its OW is bigger than Cap's, Thor's, and Hulk's total grosses. lol

I am thinking 240-260mHype will be like that of TPM

$250M!!!!Okay, maybe not that high, but fun to think about.

Agreed, they hype will be insane.

[CloneWars]

What I want to know is what kind of boost the Thor and Cap sequels will get. I also think Disney should give Hulk one more go as a solo movie.

Thanks for your information.

[CloneWars]

That would be around $205M and $210M.

[druv10]

Possibly 3 days over 60M. Beyond belief.

Yah. There are no words to describe that. We would have to invent a new BO vocabulary to convey the sheer amazingness of TA's OW.
