lancer1997 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I don't know about the $35. My guess is he is including the 3 AM shows into that as a pre day number total.Either way, hes as good as it gets in the prediction game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 A Facebook friend just posted arguably the juiciest spoiler of TDKR's ending as his status. His friends complained and he just responded, "You'll live."Time to unfriend someone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAR Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Leave them alone. They're probably not in a mood to do any speaking right now and it just furthers the notion that they're somehow responsible for this.And really what can they say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancer1997 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Red, I believe he is counting all sales from midnight till 3AM, and then looking at what he expects from a Friday total beginning with morning showings.Thats how I read it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is he is including the 3 AM shows into that as a pre day number total.Either way, hes as good as it gets in the prediction game.That would still count for midnight figures based on precedent.

MovieMan89 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I am so glad you where not at the theater. My thoughts and prayers go out your community.I think it's a blessing in disguise now that the power went out last year at my DH2 midnight screening there. That theater's always had a rep as a dump and I try and stay away from it even though it's cheaper than any other theater around, but that incident really left a sore taste in my mouth and I think I've only been back one time since then. Anyways thank you, appreciate your thoughts and concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecstasy Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Oh wait. I think that was his prediction before we got numbers. I don't know. It's confusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) Red, I believe he is counting all sales from midnight till 3AM, and then looking at what he expects from a Friday total beginning with morning showings.Thats how I read it.$4.4m from 3 AM screenings doesn't sound possible. Maybe from 3 AM and 6 AM. Edited July 20, 2012 by redfirebird2008 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPink Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) If midnight #'s was 35m...wellThat's more like it Mr. Wayne Edited July 20, 2012 by MrPink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecstasy Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Where is the $35m number coming from?Reading the whole thread I think he was answering a question. Someone didn't remember what his numbers were. It looks like his early prediction before the actual midnight number came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 $4.4m from 3 AM screenings doesn't sound possible. Maybe from 3 AM and 6 AM.I would buy it. Or maybe it was the AMC/Regal trilogies. 35m would be a truly epic number. I feel shitty talking about box office on a day like this but the point still stands.

superduperm Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 THAT is what the general response should be. Not pulling TV spots and stopping screenings. That's BS and overreacting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancer1997 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 $5m from 3 AM screenings doesn't sound possible. Maybe from 3 AM and 6 AM.He posted under an hour ago, so presumably he had already seen the $30.6m estimate. I have no idea where he got 35, but that seems probable he included some extra shows in there or the est is slightly low. I copied and pasted directly.His assertion $60m today is doable backs up what I said earlier in relation to how TDK performed. Batman is going to show resilience today IMO. $90m+ No OD record, but still a possible OW record Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sims Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I think Ecstasy's right that they're only talking about Xia's predictions, albeit in very ambiguous language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
