Jay Beezy Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Before TA most of the people on the forum thought it would. After TA opened and made 600+ million, some of the loonies upped their predictions because the TA massively exceeded expectations. Basically whatever TA did, the people that wanted TDKR to rule the summer added whatever number that was enough to beat out TA.Yeah, before it opened, people had been referring to the Avengers as Iron Man & Friends and as such thought it would only do marginally over Iron Man 1.

Killimano3 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 The flaw in your judgement is that you think the wom is not as good as tdk because even avengers wom wasnt as good as tdk or else it would have won the attendance record as well. The reality is that the wom accross all places is below tdk but way above bb. I would say as a closer it is on par if not higher than rotk. As an individual movie it is : BB >>>> TDKR >> TDKthis is reflected in all the reviews as well be it user reviews or critics, there have been over 250 critics reviews and over 500,000 user reviews among a number of placesThat would only mean the shooting had a lasting and significant impact not only for this movie but for ga going to theaters in generalThe Avengers had a higher attendance than The Dark Knight according to pretty much all sources... even if only by a little bit. Also you put the wrong sign here: BB >>>> TDKR >> TDK. You said batman begins was way better than the other two and TDK was the worst... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fmpro Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 13.8 WedsSounds like a standart drop to me.. Perhaps on high side... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moviefanatic Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) Haters busy having a circle jerk over a normal number. Box office analysis just went out the window.That's kind of hypocritical of you. You were doing the same thing when Spider-man came out IIRC.

Kevin Bacon Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) I'm not very interested in box office anymore. It's like being a Christian after finding out God died. Edited July 26, 2012 by Kevin Bacon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackO Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 That's kind of hypocritical of you. You were doing the same thing when Spider-man came out IIRC.And it is going to fall below my predictions. Not comparable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfirebird2008 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Well Avengers is still estimated at 77 million while TDK is estimated at 74 million totalThose estimates are wrong for both. 3D boost isn't properly accounted for TA and IMAX isn't properly accounted for TDK. They're both around 71 million when you account for those two things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also you put the wrong sign here: BB >>>> TDKR >> TDK. You said batman begins was way better than the other two and TDK was the worst...Yea TA had more than TDK. Chicago Sun-Times said that TDK and Spidey 3 were around 22 million, while TA was at 25.6 million. That was going off of the 200.3 million estimate Disney gave out.http://www.newsy.com/videos/the-avengers-breaks-multiple-box-office-records/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darthdevidem01 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 71-75 Million does seem like the saturation point for these modern "uber blockbusters"...even avatar is said to be around 75 Million right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfirebird2008 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 no domestic total.OW was 25 million for Avengers and 22 for TDKAgain, the BOM chart doesn't properly account for 3D. Avengers is closer to 22.5m on opening weekend than 25m. I definitely think it has the admissions record, but certainly not by 2.5m admissions.
