redfirebird2008 Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 No spinning here. Just a bit of common sense. Friday to Friday drop for TASM will be over 40% if only due to TC loss.A drop in the 40's with theater count loss is pretty good. Why would you spin that as a bad thing?

Accursed Arachnid!™ Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 That's cuz its not that great a film. Where's my dislike button? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Talk about a market share: TDKR's Monday gross is almost the same as the other nine movies in the top ten added together. I thought Batman would dominate, but no one is seeing anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accursed Arachnid!™ Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Comparing Monday to Monday drops is pretty silly. Let's wait till weekend. I'd expect TASM to have its first big TC drop this Friday. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druv10 Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 What are you talking about? TASM fell 70% when it really mattered. This Monday hold merely indicates some recovery, but again it's this weekend's hold that is really important.Looks like your TA hate has been moved to TASM. :PShawn, it's time to have a "dislike" button. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmnerdjamie Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 http://www.comingsoo...ws.php?id=93095 Comingsoon.net thinks Total Recall will barely beat TDKR. Ed is going off the tracking #s. So I get where he's coming from... but $30M feels way too high for Total Recall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Nothing's wrong with ASM's run. It's doing exactly what Pirates 4 and Shrek 4 did. The curse of the May 2007 threequels continues! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTX Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 At least Pirates had impressive OS grosses, that's why the sequels will be made. Spidey doesn't even have that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#ED Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Hopefully we can get that increase or for it to stay at 8M tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bballman24 Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Reboot vs sequel... I'm not a smart guy lieutenant Daaaaaaaaan but aren't they different?For a reboot, I'd say job accomplished. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 As a mentioned this before.......... average prediction in BSG for TASM was 255M. TASM will beat that. So it did better the average expectation and in no way can be called a failure. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finishing well below SM3 internationally, despite 5 years of inflation, market expansion and 3D, is not impressive at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your claim was that it's not making enough to justify a sequel. That's a crock of nonsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your claim was that it's not making enough to justify a sequel. That's a crock of nonsense.Calling it a crock is still giving it too much credit. Even if Spider-Man really hadn't made enough to justify a sequel, there would still be a sequel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bballman24 Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 SM2 at the time was seen as the best SH film and it set up SM3 perfectly. The fact that it being a reboot while going against the shit after taste aka SM3, even with inflation and 3D, while doing enough business to warrant a sequel is not a failure IMO.

#ED Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 The Dark Knight Rises will gross $300M Today. It will do it in 12 days which is the 3rd fastest to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
