May 7 - 10, 2012 Weekday Numbers: AVENGERS 12.5 Thurs pg 61

[Robertron]

Battleship won't be much of a competition to Avengers.

It should make as much, if not a tiny tiny bit more, than The Avengers second weekend - that just sounds awesome to say - TRY IT!

A lot of people do not know that Spider Man 3 was the last champ in Canada, before Dh2 not TDK..

So many films got close to Titanic, then a little film called Avatar came along and just annihilated everything. Lol.

LOTR was huge they were bigger then almost any film here apart from Avatar since.

Canadians sure love the Lord of the Rings films.

[Lordmandeep]

TH has a solid chance at winning the year based off the past.Its going to be a crazy year.2 films should get 50 million and maybe the Hobbit.Last few years were horrid for grosses..

Any predictions for Tuesday? 17-18M.

[blackspider]

Canada's population is about a ninth of what it is in America so the LOTR films did really well in comparison. Avatar did amazing there too.

Because they are stupid. However, Torontonians redeemed themselves on TIFF 2 years ago when some Shitto movie was the only one that wasn`t sold out. Lmao! Out of 100s of movies, there wa sno rush for Shittofest. Tee-hee.

Anything above $17m and ill be satisfied!

18m would be great, 17m would be okay.

[TLK]

I think 12% drop will be par in this case. The movie is still in burn mode but cheap Tuesday should help. Anything better than 12% is good.

Maybe someone already mentioned this but Hunger Games has now out-grossed DH2.

You know, you are the only person that I have ever met that had a problem with that character. Why do you focus on one element of a movie and hate on it so much because you don't like one character. There are many films where I won't like one character, but I don't allow that to take away from my enjoyment of the rest of the film.

I'm wondering even with discount Tuesday if this can increase on Tuesday.

An increase would be unreal. A 5-10% drop is where it should land.

[grey ghost]

People were unsure if Disney buying Marvel for 4 billion was a smart decision.Now The Avengers franchise alone is worth twice that.

Merchandising is going to be a beast.

Too bad THG is a joke overseas.
