jaybox Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 If that 17 mill number is true...ouch. It's either the olympics, the shootings still, or a mix of both. I think some or underestimating the shootings impact. I told a girl i was going to see TDKRises again with family yesterday and she flat out asked "aren't you afraid to go? " and basically she's not going to the movies for a while. There's a LOT of people like that, not to mention the copycats right now, the fact that it's been reported cops are studying Batman comics. To be simple, to many ignorant media brainwashed people right now Batman = Death. The movie has CLEARLY been affected by these shootings and as I said before, i think late legs will kick in about a month from now cause from my end the WOM has been great and evidence points to that except the BO drops unfortunately.

A Marvel Fanboy Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 17M ? TERRIBLE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnY Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Wow, The Watch bombed, but it'll still finish in second, since Step Up is more frontloaded. And, yeah, people are still scared. I still have hope that TDKR will start getting much softer drops soon, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olive Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 I thought The Watch could do mid-high 20s.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmnerdjamie Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 The Watch was screwed from the moment the Martin/Zimmerman tragedy happened. As for The Dark Knight Rises, at least it still has $400M locked. Guess $420M is where we're looking at now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans WILL eventually see it. But the people on the fence are gone for now, and WOM won't help cause of the paranoia from the shootings, not to mention parents not letting eager teens go, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yads Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 How about RTH's?Around $17-17.5m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darthdevidem01 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Thank god rth saved us by giving his numbers before Nikki. Or this was a THG 2nd Weekend situation.Hopefully it increases on Saturday & the dailies are good this week otherwise even $400m is in doubt.

Michael Seng Wah Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 (edited) The Watch was screwed from the moment the Martin/Zimmerman tragedy happened. As for The Dark Knight Rises, at least it still has $400M locked. Guess $420M is where we're looking at now? $420mil should be no problem if every week around a 50% drop, and of course if the weekdays performance almost similar to first weekdays $430-450mil if after 4-5 weeks has really good good good legs.

pieman Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 i would think that the olympics are drawing the media away from the shooting. plus, no live events were on last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoguy Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 (edited) Rth should start his own website so he can beat Nikki with his more accurate predicts. Edited July 28, 2012 by Mojoguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
