Jack Nevada Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 The Avengers' run is really unfathomable. Such an amazing success.BTW, Oh good, Return of the King is on tv tonight. I'm gonna watch the shit out of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seduh Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 With $29.1 Avengers will easily make over $100 (last saturday it was up 12% without previews, so an over 45% satuday increase is very likely) i expect a $105 second weekend ($30 over the record, remember avatar was also in 3D and with a higher share) It will be second in admissions to SpiderMan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockNrollaDIM Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Fuck Avatar. I tried watching that on FX the other night, and passed out. Still haven't managed a rewatch since theaters. It's just not that special, and WOW, it really doesn't transfer well from big screen to small screen. It looked like a Final Fantasy game on TV whereas in theaters you felt submerged in the world... It's a shame that Cameron has stated he wants to focus exclusively on Avatar for the rest of his career. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 I accidently almost wrote Avengers as Avatar the other day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Nevada Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Avatar is a really overrated and bad movie. I almost fell asleep when I tried to rewatch it on dvd. So cliched and boring. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackspider Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 A great day for TA, slightly lower than my 31m predict but at least it looks on pace to hit 100m+. All depends on that Saturday increase. I think we're in store for a huge Saturday increase in the Thor range. TA had a 135% increase comapred to Thor's 127%. Plus TA dropped 9% on Thursday and Thor stayed flat so that explains its slightly higher increase. I'd be surprised if it doesn't increase by at least 55% today.29.1m46m (+58%)31.3m (-32%)106.4m (48.7% drop) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovex Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 It does need a big TV to work, luckily i have a 50 inch 3D plasma at the end of my bed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame that Cameron has stated he wants to focus exclusively on Avatar for the rest of his career. The problem with AVATAR is that a tv signal just isn't enough for the film (even hd tv signal), there is just too much detail on screen. Now check out the Blu-Ray on a big tv and it looks awesome, best looking Blu-Ray ever and it looks even better than at the cinema imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Nevada Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 I cant fucking believe that Avatar got 9 Oscar nominations and 3 wins and the dark masterpiece that is A Serious Man got only two noms and no wins. :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rovex Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 I have to admit that id rather rewatch TA than Avatar at any time, but Avatar is a movie you use to show off your TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
