The Toymaker Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Went to my local multiplex. Expendables 2 flyers everywhere. Grabbed me about 30 of them. :DI think the cinemas know this is going to do well. A bit of late promotion. No trailer yet though being shown in and outside the cinema. Hopefully start soon.

Olive Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Early pre-sales for TE2 is quite good, it's almost TDKR level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Toymaker Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 You also think it can do 125-150 mill? In ChinaI have no idea. I am not an expert on Chinese grosses. I just say what I see and hope it does well. $30m is all I'm expecting, so I have a feeling that I will be pleasantly surprised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fmpro Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Early pre-sales for TE2 is quite good, it's almost TDKR level. Thats awesome... But should'nt it be near Titanic 3D to reach firedeep/fake numbers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Toymaker Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Thats awesome... But should'nt it be near Titanic 3D to reach firedeep/fake numbers?These are only early pre-sales. Perhaps TE2 isn't the type of film to get pre-sales. Much like the first one, it will probably do well via WOM and have a good 2nd weekend hold.In other news, I pre-bought my Spider-Man tickets today for tomorrow morning in 3D. That's 90yuan I have given to TASM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kswiston Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) Thats awesome... But should'nt it be near Titanic 3D to reach firedeep/fake numbers?They were talking about local currency in that post, not USD. You can tell because they mention ASM and TDK doing 200M+ first week.125-150M Yuan would be under $30M USD.

kswiston Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) They were talking $ total!!!!Here was Fake's post with the 125-150M number for Expendibles 2.If TASM makes 220m this week, and TDKR 200m, then next week, we could see....TE2 - 125-150MTDKR - 90MTASM - 75MPROM - 65MWhat do you think firedeep?He mentions 220M for ASM and 200M for TDKR this week. Then says next week we will see those totals for the films listed. I think it is pretty clear he means A) that those numbers are in Yuan, and B ) they are for next week only.
