The Summer Game Questions for next weekend are half done already. Talk about category six. You will see cows flying through the forums.

I need to answer them early before I get category 6 Internet connection loss. lol

[kayumanggi]

BRAVE is ahead of WALL-E which finished with 223 M. What's up with these 215 M - 220 M numbers.

[Jake Gittes]

If Brave falls another 50% next weekend, I wouldn't be too sure.

Even if it does, it will be at around $208m by next Sunday after a $5.5m weekend. Then it won't have any competition for a month.

Dude, as soon as TDKR opens there will no audience left for Spidey.

LOL!!! Dude, it's not like DKR is TA, so I doubt it.

Of course TDKR is not like TA, it's bigger and better. TDKR will easily sell more tickets than TA over the OW.

[Hatebox]

Hooray, a TA/TDKR pissing match!

2. Amazing Spider-Man 3D (Columbia/Sony) Week 2 [4,318 Theaters] PG13

Friday $9.8M, Weekend $32M, Cume $197M

Spidey dropped, just like I thought it would. RTH overestimated it yet again.

[whoot]

Wtf Brave. NOOOOOOOOOAnd this is why I said I'd wait until after IA4 hit before proclaiming Brave will beat Mad 3. I should have listened to myself.

[kayumanggi]

What's up with the obsession?

Whoot, you are hilarious.

Or Rth ends up closer to the real numbers like he does many times

Ice Age's DOM performance is irrelevant.. It will be a monster OS. Is MM making 100M?

[Chewy]

Hooray, a TA/TDKR pissing match!

Get used to it, we have at least six weeks of nothing but to look forward to

[Sin Graft]

Mine is probably,

1. Bond

2. Bond

3. Bond

4. Bond

5. Bond

6. Batman

7. Potter

8. Marvel

9. LOTR

10. Star Wars

Cool list! Here's my revised one:

#1 - Marvel properties(Avengers & satellites Thor, Cap, IM, ?, ?, etc. / X-Men: FC2, X2, FC / Spidey: TASM2, SM2, TASM / the new F4 / DD?)

#2 - DC properties(Bats: Nolan et al., Supes: MoS, a GL done right, JL?, WW?, Flash?, & yes... Aquaman?!)

#3 - Star Trek '09, the new & improved reset, from Abrams' reboot

#'s 4 & 5 - Potter & LOTR, they flip-flop back & forth for me, but loves 'em both 'bout equally

#6 - Bond, with Daniel Craig... as of right now anyway, could get knocked down the list by...

THG? When I finally see it, that is. As mentioned, there's also Indy, Sherlock, etc., etc. ... Besides Star Wars & Matrix, what other BIG $ franchises are there? Computer animated films, like Toy Story maybe? Oh, and there's Twilight too, I suppose. What else tho? What am I missin'? Hmmm... perhaps this topic deserves its own thread. What say ye?

I wouldn't consider LOTR, HP, Twilight, Hunger Games, etc. movie franchises. They're just series of adaptations.

They're still media franchises though.

But just about everything I listed above could be considered a series of adaptations, from comic books, TV shows, and yes, novels. It's true, LOTR, HP, & THG have a finite number of entries, but so did Star Wars.

Media franchises, but not movie franchises... huh? Not sure I'm followin' or can agree on that. Why can't they be both?

Of course TDKR is not like TA, it's bigger and better. TDKR will easily sell more tickets than TA over the OW.

Silly child... you know not what you speak of.

[Sin Graft]

... Is MM making 100M?

By the looks of it, yes.

[lab276]

Silly child... you know not what you speak of.

It probably will, but that would still mean less money.

[Sin Graft]

Oh, I don't think so, it'll be over long before that... w/TA declared the clear winner! It's over before it even starts, lol.

[Sin Graft]

It probably will, but that would still mean less money.

I'm thinkin' NOT!... But we shall see soon enough.
