baumer Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Nikki already has weekend numbers but no Friday numbers. Those were not based off anything but her projections. That's why this thread never should have been started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Too bad for people who have it on their top 12! I'll have to look into that. I think there were maybe 5, not many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted May 11, 2012 Author Share Posted May 11, 2012 Shawn just texted that DS was absolute shit. He thinks it might open ok, but die out fast.I was already expecting this based on the early reports. It is just very weird for the mainstream audience.

CJohn Posted May 11, 2012 Author Share Posted May 11, 2012 FRIDAY 4:30 PM UPDATE: Remember that these reports from my sources are still early. Warner Bros’ vampire sendup of the vintage TV series Dark Shadows began its release weekend by making a so-so $550K during midnight screenings overnight. But the re-teaming of Johnny Depp and Tim Burton isn’t drawing blood at the box office and only creeping out of the gate with about $10M today for at best a $32M weekend unless there’s a turnaround. Even with weeks of soft tracking, the comedy thriller was predicted to earn a minimum of $35M. But it should have opened to at least a $40M-$50M weekend with the popular Depp-Burton push that last sent Alice In Wonderland grosses soaring worldwide. Meanwhile the biggest is getting still bigger: Marvel’s The Avengers from Disney looks like around $25M for the day and a huge $80M second weekend. That means the holdover will drop only 70% after its record-setting domestic weekend opening. So what’s the total haul so far? Coming into Friday it’s North America $270M and internataional $533.3M for a global cumulative of $803.3M. Disney thinks $1B is possible for its superhero juggernaut through Sunday.

baumer Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 So that's the first real update. But it sounds too low and it will be again. I think it will be closer to 28 mill and hopefully 30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceroll Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Pretty expected second weekend, it was never gonna drop 50% from such a record breaking opening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackspider Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Relax guys, this 25m will go up. That'd only be a 100% increase. That's unheard of for an early May opener. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A "3" in place of "2" is hoped very strongly here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dementeleus Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Even with $25m it's probably closer to $85-90m. Her IMs are wack (as usual). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
