A Marvel Fanboy Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 It might hold a little better than 39. You're taking Nikki's extrapolation and treating it like gospel. With actuals, maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndustriousAngel Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Firedeep i think u are living in a different box office world than the rest of us right now lol. Ralph is doing what its supp to do. Skyfall is going to hit everything this weekend. And BD2 Isnt going to hit other films like Skyfall will. Truth be told, last weekend in Germany Skyfall shattered opening records and expectations left and right and no other films were hurt except maybe BL which was near the end of its run anyway. HT even managed an increase. MAD3 dropped 10%. Taken2 only dropped 34%! Even PA4 only dropped 38%. So I don't see why Skyfall should hurt other films in the US?

John Marston Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 The fact Skyfall is barely opening more than Quantum despite all the great advantages Skyfall has is kind of disappointing. It really shows how little American audiences care about Bond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Marvel Fanboy Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 WIR has 55% male audience, which means it mostly likely wont have as amazing legs as Disney animation traditionally had anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalo Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 BD2 is sort of 13 - 25 age group I think.WIR - ?Don't Forget Moms. the 35-45 age range kind, I'm 22 and Am going to see it. so I fall into the first category though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Skyfall effection was exaggerated here by many. It is not like its a mega 100M+ OW, which BD2 will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beating that is great and it likely will have much better legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really shows how little American audiences care about BondGood point.QoS OD 27M.Skfayll OD 32M, and this is with 2M+ from IMAX previews.Wait, didnt even QoS have IMAX ? (In terms of OD ticket sales, Skyfall maybe even had a decrease compared with QoS) Edited November 10, 2012 by firedeep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lab276 Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 this.The Skyfall effection was exaggerated here by many. It is not like its a mega 100M+ OW, which BD2 will be.I'm pretty sure there were holidays in Germany, not to mention films hold better there anyway. And there could've been a spillover effect that didn't happen DOM because it wasn't as large. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Gittes Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 this.The Skyfall effection was exaggerated here by many. It is not like its a mega 100M+ OW, which BD2 will be.US is not Germany. When PG-13 four-quadrant blockbusters open big in the US, they have an effect, they always did. And yes, when Skyfall opens to $80m+, it's going to have a fucking effect on movies around it.

Jake Gittes Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Also, QoS had one of the most reliable advantages a franchise movie can have - it directly followed a predecessor that was received spectacularly well. Skyfall had a lot going for it, but that it didn't have, which only makes its opening more impressive in my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wileECoyote Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Decent hold for WiR considering Skyfall's opening. Gonna wait for some official estimates first, but still hoping that WiR will drop only 33-36% when the weekend is through. And very nice for Skyfall. Still looking at the best Bond opening ever. Probably gonna watch it tonight with my dad who is a major Bond fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is more than enough to make up for the meh reception of QoS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#ED Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 (edited) Does the 33M include the 4M from previews? RTH posted 33M for "the day" which I assume means Friday. Edited November 10, 2012 by iTz ReaLLy ED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
