blackspider Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Solid Tuesday for Bond. 40-45m seems like a safe bet for the weekend. Maybe even better depending on how it responds to Twilight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Skyfall increased further! Nice!If it can manage 5.5M today, 40M will be locked for the weekend and 45M likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accursed Arachnid!™ Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Just a sidenote...After we had just seen Skyfall, I was waiting for my wife to get out of the bathroom. As I paced back and forth, I was looking at the four promo posters on the wall.There was one for OZ, Man of Steel, BD2 and The Hobbit. Then it struck me. The Wizard of Oz is 112 years old, Bilbo Baggins is 75 years old, Superman is 74 years old and Edward Cullen is 7. So that means, of the four movies, Twilight was the "freshest" and most "original" of the bunch. It was then I realized creativity hit its peak well before we were all born. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MovieMan89 Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 So just how big will this weekend be? I think if BD nears 150m and Bond around 50 then it could challenge the XMAS '09 one as the biggest weekend ever. The rest of teh top 12 would just have to gross around $60m combined.

Accursed Arachnid!™ Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 (edited) Bond isn't coming close to 50M. The biggest pre Thanksgiving weekend ever(2009) adjusts to near 260m for the top 10. Weekend Warrior is predicting BD2 to do 150m+ and Skyfall at 47m. Yet, his top 10 still adds up to under 260 even though the movies in the top 10 this year are way more appealing than in 2009. 2009: New Moon The Blind Side 2012(irony) Planet 51 A Christmas Carol Precious The Men Who Stare at Goats Couples Retreat The Fourth Kind This is It 2012: The Twilight Finale First Bond film in 4 years Wreck it Ralph Lincoln(you know, that film Spielberg has been planning for ages?) Flight Argo Taken 2 Here Comes the Boom Cloud Atlas Hotel Transylvania I think this is destined to be a record breaking weekend and rather than being hurt by it, Skyfall will be a part of it.

BK007 Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Hey, don't knock it. People follow their own beat. To be blunt, if you're into movies only because of horror, you're not really into movies at all.Especially when it's the umpteenth take of Saw, Paranormal, Halloween, Friday the 13th, Texas Chainsaw or equally creative and mind blowingly original and progressive The Devil Inside, the Apparition and so on, so forth.

ACCA Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Solid number for Skyfall, but it's not anything spectacular. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Marvel Fanboy Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 It definitely wont come close to 50M.43M the max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACCA Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 What would be a spectacular number, in your opinion?Well given that the Monday was unique, being a semi-holiday, big drops were expected for Tuesday. Of course, Skyfall was easily the biggest film on Monday. Given than, any number over 8M would have been great for Tuesday, and if the Tuesday number was anything over 9M ... now THAT would be spectacular.So had Skyfall gotten a 9M or higher Tuesday number, that would be spectacular in my opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACCA Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 (edited) Anything over 8M was impossible. Never say impossible. It would have been highly improbable, but not impossible. That's why I said it would have been spectacular, but spectacular numbers occur extremely rarely. Edited November 15, 2012 by ACCA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
