Jack Nevada Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 I was riding my bike: what's going on, is TA making 100M this weekend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 (edited) That's better than TDK through the same point, right?I came up with around 41m for both of them. That is after taking out IMAX boost for TDK and 3D/IMAX boost for Avengers. Edited May 13, 2012 by redfirebird2008 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackspider Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 lol its hard to say at most TDK is around 1 million tickets ahead...I think TA 3D boost is not that big anymore.Catching TDK ticket sales will require over 640 million total.Nonetheless TA to match up to an all time hit like that is impressive.640-650m seems like a reasonable finishing point IMO. What an amazing run, regardless of where it ends up from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BK007 Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 This is why we should have seperate threads. "WEEKEND ESTIMATES" yet NOTHING in post one.Plus, no numbers at all on page 97. Avengers was on page 96 and of course 0 other movies.Plus, so much crap talking in here throughout the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least update first post so all this other banter can be avoided. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cory Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Mind doing a chart for Days 8, 9, and 10 with TA included?I'm waiting to hear the IMAX share for this weekend. I've nudged the format shares around in different directions and it all ends up around 11m for the weekend (TDK was about 10.5m) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlipsLikeAPancake Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 I think I'd consider the "true" record holder to be the film with the highest adjusted gross in the modern era.I say modern era because I think it's an apples to oranges comparison to anything before that point. Films that didn't compete with cable TV and home video/DVD just shouldn't be considered as being the same. That's not to say that films like Gone With The Wind don't deserve credit (after all, the population was half of what it is today in 1939). I just consider it a separate record.I think that tickets sold is an interesting thing to keep track of, but personally not what I judge films on. Part of it is that it's not something that's actually tracked. Everyone can come up with estimates, but that's all they are: estimates.Ticket prices have increased faster than inflation. I know several friends that almost never go to the theater anymore because of that. Hence why I think the adjusted gross is more important that tickets sold, because it represents how much real value customers were willing to spend to see the movie.But on topic:Amazing to see Avengers hit $1B today, though we'll see if those estimates hold up. I didn't think the overseas would see such a small drop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldenfirefly Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 You know, most movie are super happy to even hit 100 million on their opening week! In fact, before Spiderman, 100 million OW was something movies could only dream about making. Now, TA is making 100 million in it 2nd weekend ... TA is just soooo amazing. I am lost for words. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superduperm Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 This film passed $350M in 10 days. That beats TDK (14 days).This film should pass $400M in around 15 days. That beats TDK (18 days).This film should pass $450M in around 20 days. That beats TDK (27 days).By the end of Memorial Day weekend, this film should pass $500M (25 days). That beats Avatar (32 days).Does that sound accurate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
