achooo Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Seriously though - what about something from left field '50 Shades of Grey'Simply put:If (# of females between 25 and 55) > (250M / Av Ticket Price) then x = 1 (or xxx = True if you like)Something tells me us menfolk will be surviving on take outs that weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blenderbus Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 I don't think Fifty Shades of Grey will make 250M in it's opening weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 AOU failed. We have VII, BVS, CW, VIII, IW1 and IW2, JLII. First three should be over 150M and latter maybe not IW1 yes to IW2 and JLII. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gokai Red Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Inflation alone will guarantee a movie makes 250 in one weekend. I don't think it'll be any time before the decade is over though. It's simply too high right now, and it won't be a movie currently in development, I don't think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Here's an interesting old thread. It's interesting that the last post in it was 7 months before SW came out and no one even mentioned it. Granted it didn't quite hit 250 but it came really close. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last Jedi will make less, but if Episode IX stays in the summer, it will make 250m+. Can't see any other movie doing it in the next few years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeCee Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 It won't be Marvel but Star Wars IX might have a shot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeCee Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Actually, we probably have one piece of the puzzle. It'll be Disney. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a2k Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 250 ow is an insane figure. SW7 almost pulled it off. Tri-quels have had the best OW at times and won't rule out SW9, though SW8's reception (and dare I say SW9's RT score) may matter. Else we will have to wait for inflation to do it's thang and let a few years go by till we have a 250+ opener. JW2, SW8, AIW, SW9 could be 200+ openers in the next couple of years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattW Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Star wars 7 and furious 7 blew up from their previous highs (also technically TDK was the 7th live action batman movie and that one blew up as well) so the next contenders will be transformers and pirates 7. Or avengers 7. Or jurassic 7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmbbox2390 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I think The Lion King and SW Espisode IX has a shot, but I agree with DeeCee, it definitely be Disney's to lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoMisfits Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Star 8 - 2 years of ticket inflation will probably get it there. I'm positive that this will open just like Star 7 - absolutely everywhere on 4+ screens with showings every 30 minutes through the night...and every ticket will sell that weekend for the Leia effect. It may come in under Star 7 by the end, but the 1st weekend should be the same...and that sameness + $.50-$1/more per ticket will get this to $250M...or at least give it an amazing shot... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caladbolg Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 SW8 definitely has a chance to do it. If future teasers/trailers/reviews can build up hype, combine that with Luke's return and unfortunately Carrie Fisher's death the OW could explode. Even so, there is the chance too it does like AoU- massive OW but short of its predecessor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxmoser3 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Star Wars 8 is likely. Unless it takes a while to 2020 or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daxtreme Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Jurassic World did $208M out of absolute nowhere Maybe not $250M since Star Wars might do it, but a $300M OW for example, it could be from a movie completely out of left field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 SW7 would have went over it if it had opened in the summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
