Lordmandeep Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 I think getting 70% of TA overseas gross seems fair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullbuster Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 lol, so true. I've been arguing with Baumer and few others about TA effect but nobody wanted to listen. Good times ahead for Marvel fanbase. Thankfully they won't be silly enough to say the same thing about Thor 2 and Captain America 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druv10 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Thankfully they won't be silly enough to say the same thing about Thor 2 and Captain America 2 They'll. Once Thor 2 overperforms then they'll move to CA2 and then GOTG. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grey ghost Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Amazing start OS, it's pretty much doubling or tripling IM2. With decent date in China, I think 650M OS seems possible with outside shot at 700M, if it receives great WOM. 600 m be solid, especially if IM3 makes 400 m dom/1 billion WW. 650 m would great and would pretty much assure 1 billion. 700+ m would highly impressive and would put 1.1 billion and 10 ten WW in play.

Fullbuster Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 They'll. Once Thor 2 overperforms then they'll move to CA2 and then GOTG. When they do they'll see gifs of Iron Man to help them remembering this moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Marvel Fanboy Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 I think 600M is pretty much asured atm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grey ghost Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 They'll. Once Thor 2 overperforms then they'll move to CA2 and then GOTG. Fast forward to Ant Man. All the arguments with be the same as they were against Thor and GotG. "The concept is too silly to succeed". Even though by this point the haters would've been proven wrong almost half a dozen times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though by this point the haters would've been proven wrong almost half a dozen times. They'll never learn, biggest thing Feige has created is the Marvel name brand. Fanbase has expanded quite a bit. Even if it's obscure, Marvel name will ensure 65M-70M OW and after that WOM will take over. Same applies to BP, Dr. Strange or maybe Captain Marvel movie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 It always were to us who understand OS Boxoffice That's not entirely fair. If it hits 600 mill, that's great. But the first two films didn't exactly do well overseas. So for those of us who thought it wouldn't double its gross, doesn't mean we don't understand box office, it just means I didn't see a reason for it to jump that much.

We explained the Avengers Effect to you so many times, you knew guys, you just chose to be blind..It will double IM2, and it was expected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 TA effect is a pretty good reason :PThough IM3 being a quality movie will be a solid reason for its success too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had been arguing with you and few others about it. Ent said it best. TA effect, it expanded the base audience for IM and results bare that out. It's doubling or tripling IM2 even in developed markets like France, UK and Australia. Edited April 26, 2013 by druv10 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its so obvious that IM3would benefit from that. 2/3 seems like the leastit could do. TF3 doubled from TF2. It was so in the cards that this would too. This was never going to make less than 600 mill no matter you look at it Im not talking down to people who thought otherwise, it was so obvious IMO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IM3 has this so called Avengers effect, hype, non-IM/2 rip, better movie, so why not an 89% jump for 600M OS. Also has the China factor which should see a sizable increase.

baumer Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 If it hits 900 mill I'll be the first to admit I was wrong. I simply don't get it, to be honest with you. Avengers is fun because they are all together. IM is fine, but I really didn't think there would be this much interest in him alone. Looks like I was wrong.....again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I originally had it just shy of 600 with the same DOM/OS mix as TA. Definitely surprised but loving the results so far but question is will the legs be as good as your predicting. I hope so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
