blenderbus Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Anything above 800 million would be a fantastic result compared to the previous two films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nAlkaline Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) And now a 150M opener is irrelevant. Irrelevant considering the audience. No one is saying BD2 won't have a huge opening. Don't understand why Twilight advocates are getting butthurt over the fact that there isn't a significant overlap between the core audience of that film and Skyfall.

Just look at their reactions when you tell them the series is terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Marvel Fanboy Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Big impact will have happen to all movies, no matter whatever target audience they respectively have, no matter whatever. It is simply the fact when a mega opening happens.Sorry, this is the truth and rule in the world of box office. No matter whatever wishful thinking Twi-haters may have, no matter how they spin how pretend.Twilight movies proved the ever true law four times in a raw in past years, all huge openers proved the rules too many times. I am not a Twihard, but I would not deny facts.Enough said. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 So when Skyfall does $40+ million this weekend will we say Twilight had a huge effect on it?That would be a 55% drop. I think that's what most of us are expecting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Marvel Fanboy Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 So when Skyfall does $40+ million this weekend will we say Twilight had a huge effect on it?A better question is: how much would Skyfall, an action sequel with OW of 90M and this kind of wom, normally do with no major competitions this weekend ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#ED Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 A better question is: how much would Skyfall, an action sequel with OW of 90M and this kind of wom, normally do with no major competitions this weekend ?52-55M? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) I don't think, even if Skyfall had absolutely no competition, that it would hold quite that well. Sure it has amazing WOM but it's still a Bond film. There is some frontloadedness to expect. Even The Avengers lost over 50%.

RichWS Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I'm thinking 43 for Skyfall. That's a 51% drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Marvel Fanboy Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 52-55M?Smallest 2nd weekend drop for 80M+ openers:AIW -46% March 2010SM -38% May 2002HP -36% Nov 2001So assuming the best it can do is 55M this weekend (with HP level drop ...) without competitions.We will know much hurt BD2 potential would have.

Gopher Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Lincoln will hurt Skyfall more than BD2 will. Why? Both are going after the same audience. Lincoln skewed 67% over 25 and like Skyfall it got an A Cinemascore. Having seen the movie it should be a huge audience favorite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
