superduperm Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 From HSX- "Just thought you guys might want some BATM3 Comparisons from my theater today. BATM3 Down 25% from AVG opening Day, Down 10% from Harry, up 2% from TWIGH. BATM3 Sat Mat Down 48% from AVNG, Down 47% From Harry, Down 40% from TIWGH." Batman is screwed. I don't get it. Why are TA and HP8 so close? TA did mountains better than HP8 did on Saturday... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfirebird2008 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 TDKR is an absolute lock to break 400m.Nope. I think it won't reach 350. This was a nuke against the film. Noctis, I enjoyed it very much. Teared up during a couple scenes near the end. That has never happened to me in a theater before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claire of Themyscira Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I'm really bummed out. I don't find this amusing like some. The cast and crew worked hard on this film.Exactly. If you do find it amusing, you deserve a good fuck you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 People living outside USA have no idea the coverage it's getting with news channels. (24/7) At this point, it wouldn't shock me if it misses TDK or even SM3 OW and then people will realize the effects the shooting had.This. At this point the only news channel that I can watch without seeing the shootings is CNBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 "film will still break 500 million. those who were deterred to see the movie this weekend will watch it anyway between now and 10 weeks from now."You just don't get it..Films can get leggy runs but unless they are made by JC they need to get a massive opening weekend to get a huge gross.

Noctis Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 This is a complete fucking disgrace. I want that James guy to be tortured until death.That's exactly what this world needs. Torture. *sarcasm* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hasanahmad Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Families are not going to the theaters this weekend. This has to make the bulk of its money from the night shows for the time being. Huge disadvantage.if they are not going this weekend they will eventually go next 10 weekends, whoever is skipping going to TDKR this weekend will see it in the next 10 weeks. only like 2-5% will likely hold a stigma against the film. I think its going to pick up again and have long legs. something like Avatar but on a slightly smaller scale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Honestly I think it might be time to cue the meltdowns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theultimatebiu Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Just came back from a sold out show. Gotta say I enjoyed it but its not on the same level as TDK and too long and the ending is WAY overhyped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Anyone who wishes a film to do poorly like SO many here make me sick. I don't even believe in karma, it's just very negative thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmandeep Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I don't get it. Why are TA and HP8 so close? TA did mountains better than HP8 did on Saturday...One has to remember that many people reported that TA Sat Night business was as strong as Friday night business.

DAR Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 This. At this point the only news channel that I can watch without seeing the shootings is CNBC.I'm doing with watching the coverage, too depressing, watching Friends just for something lite.

Jay Beezy Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I haven't read all pages, but I remember that it was said cochofles when to the screening in Colorado, or something like that. Did she make it out of there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teared up during a couple scenes near the end. That has never happened to me in a theater before. Way too early to write this thing off. Yes, the opening has been hugely affected, but the attention span of the average person is very small. It's on everyone's mind now but it in a few days or a week from now, most people will have moved on. It's just the way it is. Looks at Kony. Huge internet sensation one day, a week later nobody gave a shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
