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

Recommended Posts



Fish, every day this week has been on par or better than other films of its ilk, with the exception of Wednesday. It's doing amazingly well. And yes, the weekend numbers are going to be huge.

Good to know. There`s only one way to secure that over $100 mio is happening - watch the movie, people! Keep watching! Get your friends, fenemies, enemies, family,etc to watch it!

Yeah, but this isn't IRONMAN 2 though or THOR or SM3 for that matter.. This is a movie that trumps all of them and is in alot of demand right now, even approaching it's 2nd weekend.. Your guaging too much on how things performed in the past more than they are now..

Movies don't usually increase their first Wednesday to Thursday, especially not in May, especailly not when it's a big movie and especially not 17% like you say to get to $16m...you're not thinking it through on this one.

Best case scenario is staying flat, but more likely, it'll be a 5-10% drop. Which is still very good and sets it up well for a possible $100m second weekend.

What he said.BKB, the only way that this goes up today is if the past days were freakishly different from other movies. But it's not. So it won't.

How do likes work? Do you get more of them the more posts you have?

You usually get 10 likes per day unless you're a donor which gives you 20. Edited by C00k13

At the pace this is going could it hit 400m by Friday next week?

It will reach 400m by then. Realistically, it should happen Tuesday or Wednesday. It really depends on how big the weekend is. TA is sitting at about $270m right now. If it has a huge, massive weekend on the order of 110-120m, then it'll happen by Tuesday for sure, and possibly even Monday. If the weekend is closer to 100m then it may take until Wednesday, or Thursday at the latest.Any way one slices it, $400m should happen before the third weekend. Something that took TDK 18 days to achieve, Avengers should accomplish in 14 or fewer. Simply amazing!

It is amazing for sure, but also proof of how big of an impact 3D and inflation are having. TDK would have reached $400m after 10 days with the same ticket prices Avengers has. That's $87m above its actual due to 4 years of inflation and a 3D boost on top of that.

3D makes a considerable difference, that I agree with. TA gets a bigger boost from it on weekends, but is still getting some boost during the week as well. However, inflation since 2008 has been very small. Use of http://www.usinflationcalculator.com/ shows that since 2008 the total amount of inflation is a mere 6.5%. So of those two factors, 3D is the one making a much larger impact.However, even with those two considerations TA's run is still more amazing than TDK's. I'm not going to get involved in a tangential debate about ticket sales. I'll assert that, while it is a relatively small amount, TA will have sold more tickets through 10 days than TDK. The numbers bear it out. Thus, your claim about TDK reaching $400M in 10 days with TA's ticket prices is incorrect. It would have fallen well short.

Appreciate an accurate source, don't question it legitimacy. He has proved himself for years at BOM.

If I remember correctly, Rth won the derby in back to back weeks and finished 3rd the following week.

You're a moderator for goodness sake. Shouldn't you know of all people? :lol:

No. I don't go to a lot of moderator meetings. :)
