Surely X-MEN or FIRST CLASS 2 would have sufficed! Goddamn acronyms.

It's a bit more than just a FC sequel but that's the simplest version I can give. Edited December 16, 2012 by C00k13

Is this still going to make a Billion? Or is there a chance it misses it?

Should'ent Hobbit3 be affraid of DOFP now ?!??!!!

Yes, specially if it has a 3 hour runtime (which I think would be bad for a summer release) and X-Men DOFP can open in the neighborhood of X-Men: The Last Stand ($100m+ OW). Its highly possible that DOFP opens higher than Hobbit 3. Unless, The Hobbit trilogy gets a LOTR type effect where each movie does better then the last.

There and Back Again must go to December 2014.

It will.

[Chewy]

It will.

It seems like WB mostly stuck it in the summer because they didn't have another big tentpole ready to go for that mid-July date, and I don't see them letting another studio take the date. They've released a movie there every year since, what, Potter in 07?

[John Marston]

no fucking way are both those movies staying on the same date. It would hurt both of them badly

Haha I posted the same thing a while back. X Men can stay put.

It will make a Billion worldwide, International market has just grown so much that it can't miss it imo.Its not quite the AVATAR killer that some were saying months ago though.

3D really is dying. The norm seems to be a 40%-50% share but 3D still gets more screens. Unless it's used for IMAX or a midlevel hit made for 3D (Hugo, Life of Pi), audiences are actively trying to avoid it.

Days of Future Past is the title.

It's too bad, because I think 3D has endless possibilites. Too bad crap filmmakers keep fucking up with the tool

They have Jupiter Ascending., and I don't see them letting another studio take the date. They've released a movie there every year since, what, Potter in 07?

Hobbit is still going to make more money than any X men movie. Better tO move it though

[Fake]

40% or so drop next weekend

Over 50% drop.

It still has a good shot at a Billion.

[Olive]

Over 50% drop.

[ChD]

No way this drops more than 50% lol. That is just insane... I understand that some people consider it bad, but I don't think it's THAT bad.

memorial weekend is even worst, with FF6 and THGOVER3, exact same demo, what studios are thinking?

Release date chicken, no one wants to be the one who backed down. Everything in Hollywood lives or dies on perception
