Gideon Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 this opening weekend will be LESS than Spider-Man 3 adjusted This opening weekend is bad, there is no other way to spin it. Ah, thanks for giving me the answer! (even if it wasn't your intention ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) "TA all will roughly sell the same amount of tickets on OW, the difference is 3D for TA."Big difference is TA was not expected to come anywhere near that.

baumer Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 With a good 2nd weekend and legs this will do fine and $500m+ as people will just watch it later on and not on OW.It was not going to do $200M+ OW without 3D so if it beats DH2 OW that will be a success.IMO, 500 was not going to be had even without the shooting. So 500 is definitely not going to be made with a 170-175 OW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 So the mentality is that if you go to TDKR you will die but if you go to any other movie than you should be fine?That's a simplistic way of saying it, but yes. People probably think it's far more likely to happen at TDKR than Brave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pieman Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Still leggy with pretty good but not outstanding like The Dark Knight? The Beyondthetrailer review was very lukewarm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With over 70 victims, that makes this the largest Mass Shooting in U.S. History. Even though it's not the highest death count, that belongs to Virigina Tech.

CJohn Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Bingo. And by theory, if parents are keeping their kids out of the movies, shouldn't IA4, Mad3 and Brave suffer 60-75% drops this weekend?It happened at Batman. Not at any other movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moviefanatic Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Oh my. Was not expecting that low of a number. Extremely interested in seeing how this movie behaves today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTX Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Why aren't any other movies being affected by the shooting? They are all in line with predictions. Aren't people supposed to be afraid to go to the movies?Who knows, Spidey fell 60% - that's more than most people thought. And these are just the estimates from Nikke, she may have easily overestimated it by 0.5M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 If a gunman wants to commit a mass killing, he/she is probably not going to shoot up a 4th week screening of Madea's Witness Protection.So only Batman will be effected by this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmandeep Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) Well the thing is the film could pull of TA hold on Saturday however I do not think a film would go to getting rather low day business on Friday to getting TA, Spider Man level Saturday?

Heretic Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 You can't just fucking beat this:http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jqq4j52Fb4No trailer from TDKR comes close to that.Watching this makes it even clearer to me that TDKR didn't touch TDK.

druv10 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 meh not happy with the box office.What is the "Bad WOM" BS I'm hearing. Who is spreading such lies?The movie has amazing WOM from what I'm hearing from friends & family & facebook so far.WOM will be good but won't be near TDK. I thought movie was very good especially the ending but it has flaws, that will hurt the WOM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixiesvision Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 So only Batman will be effected by this?People are already saying that they can't help but think about what happened yesterday in the back of their minds before, during or after watching TDKR.
