fmpro Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Didn't TDK do $17m in midnights, and therefore $50m during Friday 4 years ago? I don't see $60m today with far more screenings being unattainable.Maybe 65? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmscholar Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) I think this will be the end of "Dressing Up In Costume" at the movie theater, I think new rules will ban it as many are saying they thought the shooter was just in costume. As for the numbers, 27-30 is solid to me. Remember this wasn't 3D like DH2 but I don't think the OW record will happen especially cause of the shooting.

redfirebird2008 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 You can't really divorce this horrible tragedy from box office discussion right now. Since it involves a movie theater, the two are intrinsically linked.Agree. This is a bigger deal than anything about the movie itself. Just unbelievably shocking and sad. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockNrollaDIM Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 My buddy smoked too much green before the movie and was passed out cold for the first 90+ minutes. I was at him the whole time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like the most they'd have to do is outlaw head gear that covers your face. Edited July 20, 2012 by tribefan695 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now the NY theaters are at worst on par with TDK 4 years ago. Regal has sold out through 11pm already. Every show. Its very strong on the WC as well.While it may be harder...it IS doable.

Jack Nevada Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Cowards are good, nice people compared to Roman Polanski. The accusations against him, which he refuses to face, are horrendous and extremely disturbing. What he did was horrible, and he should have faced the judgement instead of fleeing the country like a pussy. He's a terrible person fo sho, but boy, he can make a movie like a motherfucker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lancer1997 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 48.6 million and 18.5 million midnights...Right so....its not a stretch we would see a +$12 million increase given the screen increase. The tragedy is the WC obviously as our thoughts should be with them.But I don't see a 25% increase that difficult given the 4 year wait, TDK being beloved, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
