acab Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Jaw dropping opening for Iron Man. Now he is obviously part of the A-list comic book characters worldwide. I still remember the skepticism about the character and Robert Downey Jr back in 2008. Times change so fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenithtim Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Jaw dropping opening for Iron Man. Now he is obviously part of the A-list comic book characters worldwide. I still remember the skepticism about the character and Robert Downey Jr back in 2008. Times change so fast. Actually, this opening proves that Iron Man, as played by RDJ, is not only part of the A-list comic book characters, but the very definition of it. It is more bankable than every other superhero and will remain so as long as RDJ won't retire. After he'll retire, a big drop is to be expected, tho.

fishstick Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Any projections for end of this week OS cume? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 (edited) hmmm with May day holidays it should get around 100 million from the weekdays and 100 million from the next weekend and that is including the new openings from China Russia and Germany. I think it will be well above 400 million overseas by next Sunday sounds insane but likely? Edited April 29, 2013 by Lordmandeep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCS Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Everyone's hyping Germany up but they don't like superhero films... Both Iron Man and IM2 made under $10M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neo Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Everyone's hyping Germany up but they don't like superhero films... Both Iron Man and IM2 made under $10M. That was pre-Avengers. There are some OW for IM3 that made more than IM2 DOM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I'm thinking over 400M overseas at the end of next week too. I remembered TA grossed over 40M on its first Tuesday last year with only some small markets opening, so the main reason for big gross is Labor Day holiday, which is May 1st. For IM3, May 1st has both China and Germany's openings. So I expect its Wenesday numbers to be big. Then Thursday May 2nd is opening in Russia, should add a nice bump too.
