lab276 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Well you shouldn't be. It would make it the 2nd most attended OD of all time time! And if it manages to make 83M - the highest attended OD in motion picture history. The 100M OD talk was always a pipe dream.It's more about the rest of the weekend than the day by itself. And you also have to think of the potential this film had, but now doesn't because of the shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sims Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 If TDKR can still manage a number in the 80s, I really don't see how anyone could say 100M was "always a pipe dream." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessie Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Has no-one thought that maybe this tragic even could end up doing this film good (without sounding harsh). its getting a lot of publicity right not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utesfanami Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Anyone else think Sunday might stay flat with Saturday? People are going to feel better about seeing the movie by then.I've actually thought that might happen. Or we will see a better drop next weekend. I think the WOM is going to be very good too, judging by the insane reaction the movie got once the credits rolled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I refuse to grade a film after my first viewing if the crowd is insane and I've been hyping it for so long. I didn't grade DH2 until my second viewing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moviefanatic Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Anyone else think Sunday might stay flat with Saturday? People are going to feel better about seeing the movie by then.No. I really believe that most of the general audience is not affected by the shooting. The only demographic that may hold off is the family demo but that group was going to make up a pretty small amount of TDKR gross anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travod Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 My theater clapped every 15-20 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Also... were there trailers for anyone? In my theater the movie started immediately. That's only ever happened with Passion of the Christ for me.Though I guess it was just to fit all the IMAX showings in.I got trailers but I read that some theaters are skipping them because the length of the movie plus ads is a strain on the projection machines.

Lumos Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Agreed. We'll never know if 100M was a possibility before this.Impossible. You think it would have managed to make 70M for the rest of Friday, without 3D? The highest single day ever, excluding midnights, and adjusted for inflation is the original Spiderman's Sat, and that couldn't even get to 60M.

rockNrollaDIM Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I didn't grade or formally review TDKR but I came back on a high saying I loved it, which sadly I'm not sure it's deserving of all that because there are many flaws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think the OD record would have been in reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

utesfanami Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 My theater clapped every 15-20 minutes.My theater was extremely quiet for the entire movie. I though maybe everyone hated it. Once the credits rolled though, people were cheering and yelling and clapping like crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the WOM is going to be very good too, judging by the insane reaction the movie got once the credits rolled.I wouldn't put much stock into that. If they were planning to see the film this weekend but didn't, then they're probably not going to go at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
