Eraserhead Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Well, the estimate has been veering downward throughout the day...somewhere around a 80M total looks likely at this point. Having said that, no one really knows with certainty what effect the shooting is having, so it's probably best to sit back and wait for more concrete figures.What was the initial estimate?

riczhang Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I still think that the West Coast will bring the number up, as it looks a hell of a lot stronger than the East Coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adm56 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Audience reaction to Avengers opening weekend was much more energetic than what I saw today at TDKR, Obviously a very small sample size of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riczhang Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 80-90m THR 80-85m Nikki 75m VarietyI'm still hoping for a mid-high 80s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nAlkaline Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 What was the initial estimate?I believe the earliest estimate was in the 80-90M range, after which it has dropped to 80M according to Nikki and 75-80M...if you listen to Variety, which seems like a poor decision considering that track record. Pretty up in the air at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walt Disney Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Can't say the same for my showing. Audience seemed to really like her. And she was the only one out of the actors from the movie that was in the top trending topics on twitter.If you say your audience laughed, then I believe you. I can say for a fact that my audience did not laugh once at any of her lines. And my audience clearly enjoyed the movie by the applause at the end of the movie and sprung to see in REAL IMAX (not the converted theater). So they would have laughed if they thought her lines were funny.Ironically, I thought Marion did a fine job (I saw above that you and Chewy didn't care for her as much). She didn't have any witty lines, so no reason to laugh at her lines. However, she competently handled the part that she was given. I have no criticism of her.

Claire of Themyscira Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 -The movie had great memorable moments. - The casting was great. The acting was great all around (there was no one that was as bad as Anne Hathaway in TDKR), with the actors delivering their lines just right. -The movie had witty lines and funny moments - The action sequences were great. The action was great. -The movie had a little bit of everything and everything worked perfectly. It was the definition of a great action movie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eraserhead Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 80-90m THR 80-85m Nikki 75m VarietyWow, 75 would definitely be a bit disheartening. I do think the shooting, while not necessarily scaring that many people away from theaters, is sort of sucking the fun out of Batman at the moment. Not what this movie needs on OW.It sucks that we were robbed of a completely legitimate Avengers (Marvel) vs. Batman (DC) showdown. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
