[druv10]

And loonies were convinced it was going to do at least 170M 6 day after its OD.

Who said 170M, other than your imagination? I had 35M OD with 150M 6 day. (93%)

Am I the only one who thinks he looks better with lighter hair? He is gorgeous, but the lighter tones become him.

With his natural copper hair he looks exactly like 50 Shades of Grey. Which is why his fangirls are terrified he might get the lead in that drek. Edited July 7, 2012 by fishnets

Yes Ice Age 4 next is totally going to destroy Spider-Man right? lol

with its opening day ASM should have cleared 150 million however Wed-Thur were much weaker then expected.

[BK007]

Except mid 200s is still horrible for a Spidey film in 3D. It will end up being a good 40%+ drop in admissions from SM3, if not worse.

Not really. I think we have to stop this thinking that 3D boosts the gross. It seldom does. Look at Brave, Madagascar 3, Prometheus, Toy Story 3, Tron Legacy, Pirates 4, Shrek 4 etc. practically every film except Avatar, Alice and Avengers. All of these films grossed amounts that I would have predicted if there were no 3D. What I don't mean here is I predicted their totals but that I don't say, "Hey wait! It has 3D so let's add another 20% on top" and I honestly really believe had 3D not been a factor all these films would still gross their totals. Because if you want to believe the opposite, that these totals are already boosted, just compare them to non-3D films that year or years past, all their final totals would be depressingly horrific. 3D has become a deterrent IMHO for many films due to its widespread use and acknowledgement of its uselessness. Anecdotal but every time there's a 3D option all my friends choose 2D. 3D is a last resort.

This.I compared Kitsch to Brad Pitt once too - and Pitt has had a LOT of bombs in his career. Yet Pitt remains a huge star.Like Pitt, Kitsch seems to have a lot of international appeal (or at least his films do). Thanks to international business, both "John Carter" and "Battleship" have approached or surpassed $300M worldwide. And that suddenly makes the fact that these films bombed domestically a bit more tolerable. Add in DVD/Blu-Ray, NetFlix, Red Box rentals, cable and TV rights and these films might even turn a bit of a profit for their respective studios (despite Disney claiming it will write off $200M, which I don't believe at all - it was a shareholder trick)."Savages" may not be a big hit, but Kitsch will not suffer, given the director and the fact that an Oscar winner is in the movie. The other two Kitsch films were big action/adventure movies. Kitsch definitely won't suffer because of "Battleship" as that was more about the alien invasion side. Had the film been successful, I don't think Kitsch would have gained a lot either - after all, is anyone more impressed with Shia LeBouf because of "Transformers"?That said, I'm sure Kitsch will be looking at his next few movies very carefully. He should hope he's asked to play his Gambit character in another X-Men movie. Those are at least mild hits domestically ($140M+) and he needs that now.

What the hell? Why are you analyzing Kitsch's appeal and even comparing it to Brad Pitt, an actually phenomenal actor? Kitsch hasn't shown he has any acting ability in his blockbusters and outside of America this year he was an unknown, there were some posters thinking he would add as a draw and I was like, WHO IS HE? Despite Battleship and John Carter doing decent OS numbers, there is absolutely nothing that says it was Kitsch who was the draw because, newsflash, these films do gangbusters OS all the time. Might as well say Logan Lerman star of Percy Jackson is a draw OS or that girl from the Golden Compass. Kitsch has nothing to do with their success and no one cares about him even now. If they can't even name Mark Ruffalo, Chris Evans and Hemsworth or Jeremy Renner why would they honestly give a damn about Kitsch?Sorry if this is coming off very harsh, I mean, I don't honestly have anything against him like I do with no-talent Worthington, but I just find it, again I apologize, laughable that anyone would even analyze Kitsch, his appeal and whatsoever, it seems very naive.

Brave's run has been underwhelming so far honestly outside of OW.

Compared to so many others, the total gross will be in the high end

So many others WHEN? It's barely beating Madagascar's dailies right now and Ice Age 4 and TDKR have yet to hit. It looks like it'll fall below Cars to be honest.

Excusse me before Brave was opening a lot of people said it will not make $200, it open big and held nicely, i mean it will make more than madagascar 3 by a $20 margin at least, it's weekdays are great and it should held better next week. Wall E drop very hard also on the weekends

I thought it had a chance to leg it to near Up's total since Tangled made it to $200m. I don't believe quality is that bad to make it have such underwhelming legs so it's very disappointing it's still holding very averagely.

TASM's gain is Avengers' loss: down 50% from last week.

Why do you even care? It's kind of sad honestly that even the Avengers fanboys have stopped caring but you go on, actually it's depressing, surely you have other things to keep you happy?

[John Harris]

At least RTX got something to be happy about.....

$609,614,000 later... :lol: :lol:Sadly, TA has just lost too many theaters this weekend. I saw TASM last night (2nd time), and TA wasn't playing at our theater after 3:30 PM (only two showings all day). Tough to make money if it's not playing! It's PTA only dropped 22% from last Friday...

[grey ghost]

we have to be careful..we always underestimate the legs of films.I think many did not think TF3 would get to 352 million after its first few opening days...

Yup, by Friday people were debating if TF3 could even beat TF1's 319 m.

So if I understand right :For TASM275m : Failure301m : Success

[Samson]

The drumbeat for TASM was $150 million 6-day, equal to Spider-Man 3's 3-day, with the help of a major holiday, summer weekdays, 3D, and IMAX.

[Lordmandeep]

actually some people started calling for sub 300 million for TF3.It will fall around 50% or so next weekend and be around 210 million by next Sunday.

275 million is the number no one is happy with. No one.Oh, they'll put on a good game face. The detractors will say it's the first Spider-Man film to not top $300 million, and that Marvel's most popular character couldn't even bring in half the business of Avengers. The advocates will just repeat "Its a reboot" and, uh, not much else going by the threads these recent days.Less than $250m or higher than $300 million. At least then half of us can be happy.

[The Futurist]

Even at 250m dom, Spidey is still Sony's biggest brand.

Do you have the under 300 and under 250 m predictions?

[Lordmandeep]

250-300 million would be a draw..Haters can't really hate on it and supporters cannot really claim victory.Same happened with TF3.Most saw around 375+ for it and haters saw around TF1...

[Moviefanatic]

Well...the OD was good. Everything after has been very meh. Should still make a ton OS though.
