I thought this thread would get more hysterical-explosive with the first numbers...So much talk about it these last weeks...And that's it?

It was a little about The Avengers....

[rockNrollaDIM]

Baumer if more numbers come in please update first post. I'm out right now then seeing SW later.

[TLK]

Its okay at best and the film will lose money in the end.

How is it doing in your theaters?

After battleship and dark shadows and a few other under performers, it's good to have two 50+ OW weekends back to back weeks if this number holds. But the budgets for both MIB3 and SWATH were out of control so it's hard to celebrate knowing they had to throw the bank to get 50 Million OW. Edited June 1, 2012 by filmscholar

The 200M predictions are "officially" dead, right?It will close even under MIB3 now.I definitely want a Prometheus over SW&TH.

You're right...

I like the sound of "50".

50 is still a beautiful-magical number.

Perfect middle between heaven and hell.

I took my dad and sister. My mom's a bore. >.< But my sis loved it, and my dad said it was okay. He actually found K-Stew extremely attractive. He was like "Charlize is one of a kind, but Kristen is just whoa." <3

lol, my mom cant stand Kristen, but I will take her anyway, I am waiting for this film since last comic con. From reviews the script let everybody down, the characters should have been more developed, I just hope they make enough money for a seaquel.

"Its okay at best and the film will lose money in the end.How is it doing in your theaters?"Well its hard to say...MIB3 did really bad around me but was doing much better in the States.I think Snow White is doing pretty good around me.Many shows are quite full tonight..TA is still going strong..However still think this is going to be frontloaded.

What will be the next fairy tale to be LOTR-ized?- Beauty getting an armor to fight Gaston in order to protect her Beast?- Ariel getting an armor to fight the underseas fish-orcs of Ursula?- Pocahontas getting an armor to fight the leagues from the Old Continent?

Don't jinx it.

Universal needs to fast track a cross-over sequel:BATTLESHIP meets LITTLE MERMAID.

Did you forget about OS???It ain't losing money.

[RichWS]

It has a long road to become a bona fide hit but $50M is a very solid start.

[Dementeleus]

Did you forget about OS???It ain't losing money.

Universal has put $250-300m on the line (production + marketing). Are you saying you think it's gonna gross $500m+ WW?

I hear overseas it is off to a slow start, in Asia it is opening pretty badly and Prometheus is raping it in the countries where they open together

[Mayhem2x3]

I forgot how James Cameron started these fairy tale remakes with his Pocahontas one.

Don't jinx it.

lolIn a way, i like doing this.Finding nasty-cashgrab ideas is so easy.It's frightening when you think about it.Even depressing...So, no lol.

It's not out of the realm of possibility.

[ecstasy]

LOL Give the movie a chance. We haven't even gotten the second update yet. Too early to tell what it's gonna do either way. We really need to see the what the whole weekend will be like.

[kayumanggi]

Saw this last night, Really dark. Dragged a bit. Not sure about the sequel. And to fishnets, Claflin did ok.

[Gideon]

Any talk about the dwarfes?
