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

[spizzer]

BOM list IMAX gross at 15.3M not 16.6M that will jump the admissions over 22M.

The audience was split evenly between those above and below 25 years-of-age, and it was 60 percent male. 3D screenings accounted for 52 percent of the opening weekend gross, which is an improvement from Captain America's 40 percent but below Thor's 60 percent. That 3D share breaks down to 40 percent traditional 3D, 8 percent IMAX, and 4 percent premium large format. The estimated $15.3 million the movie earned at 275 IMAX theaters set a new record for the format.

That was when the estimate was 200. With 207.4, the IMAX gross is 16.6M.

.08 x 207.4 = 16.6M

Also, one of Nikki's posts over the weekend specified that the IMAX total estimates were yet incomplete.

Did TDK and SM3 end up a few hundred K above TA in admissions? Or are they even?

[druv10]

TA is few K higher than them.

Too close to call. If I were to rank them, I'd put TA on top, just because it has the most uncertainty. The reality is that we'll never really know which of the three sold the most, however, if we ever could, TA would have the best chance of being #1.

Just call them even as it depends what ticket prices you use. Even a 2% error in ticket prices you use to calculate can give an error of half a million tickets. So yeah they all around ~22m with no clear winner.

I don´t care about the adm. anymore and who had the most and bla bla bla.TA smashed the BO record into pieces while telling Potter he was a puny wizard.Thats enough for me and alot of others here..

The 23m ticket crown is waiting for it at $193m with a 12% IMAX take. I think it will happen.

[TLK]

So 19 million Monday. Seems like a good drop, SM3 had a bigger drop on the equivalent day.

[Eraserhead]

At least TDK will definitely keep its non-holiday Monday crown then. We have to let the old champ keep something...

don't forget though that TDK monday was summer school vacation, TA isn't, in fact from memory depending on if Avatar's 2nd monday school was out, TA will probably have the biggest non-hol,summer monday because pretty much everything else has either had public holiday monday or been during summer school hols

[A Marvel Fanboy]

If Monday is not over 20M then 600M pretty much can be ruled out.550M is the target.

[Fake]

Did we get an update about the Monday business?
