AniNate Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) tribefan965, cool it the fuck down. I'm not sure why you're so agitated at everyone.Huh? I know I've done a lot of swearing today but that's all been directed at the scumbag who murdered these poor people, not anyone here. If Sims meant it as an innocent question I apologize. It's just I don't think any focus should be directed at the cast and crew who had nothing to do with this tragedy right now.

lancer1997 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Using his percentages based on the lower $30m figure and lower $80-90m range given by the hollywood reporter...looks like would work out to $193m weekend. All things considering that is insane. 30 midnights 58 friday w/o midnight 56 saturday 49.5 sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLK Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Midnight is 30.64 million. Someone asked xia for his old predictions and he provided that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superduperm Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Also, why is the midnight number changing all the sudden? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lab276 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 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.He only posted it an hour ago, but that's if the time on those posts is Pacific time.

Sims Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 He only posted it an hour ago, but that's if the time on those posts is Pacific time.It was recently but they're talking about a final prediction, not final numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) 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!edit- nevermind. I'd be very unhappy.

redfirebird2008 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 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 recordGitesh's sources seem to think it will be close to $60m in day business as well. Given how early it is, it would not be surprising if that is lowballed. Assuming of course that this isn't an extremely optimistic estimate by his sources.

lancer1997 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 All of you are reading way too much into the $35 million figure. Reality is its $30.6. Focus on the multipliers throughout the weekend he gives. Works out to $193 weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming of course that this isn't an extremely optimistic estimate by his sources.I am going to buy tix for tomorrow night on my way home from work. So I'll get a gauge of the WC mood. Last night it was bonkers. If it still is, you can bet any estimate, including Nikki's 10Pmish update will be lowballed by several million.

John Marston Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 considering superhero movies don't have huge midnights like book adaptation movies do, isn't a 30m midnight show this could still possibly get close to 200m or even pass it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gideon Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 193M would be a cool symetry case.7M under 200M.TA got 7M over 200M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
