The Dark Alfred Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 (edited) It's a truly awful weekend drop for The Hobbit, it needs to recover next weekend otherwise it might suffer a humiliating defeat to Skyfall and BD2.

RTX Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Any chance Sunday drops will be more normal since these Saturday jumps look pretty normal to me...I'm talking about something closer to a 30% Sunday drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Marvel Fanboy Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 BOX OFFICE: THE HOBBIT Closes In On $300M Worldwide Despite A 73% Drop In North America fanboyish misleading title from CBM... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Maybe I am just jaded or maybe I am just use to a big tent poles doing giant numbers worldwide in their first 2 weeks but 300 just doesn't seem like it's that much to me. It's not huge for a film like The Hobbit. I have no idea where it will end up but I don't think it's hitting 1,000,000,000 and I don't think it's hitting 300 here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayumanggi Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 I'm perfectly fine with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 I also said this a few months ago before the film came out. There is nothing wrong with doing just under 300 or just over 300. It's the expectations hear that were a little bit out of whack. Doing 300 and say 8 or 900 worldwide is huge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elessar Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 (edited) If ROTK can manage $550m adjusted for 3D / inflation DOM and probably around $1.8b (including market expansion in countries such as China and Russia) WW, then predicting something like $400m DOM / $1.4b WW for Hobbit is not out of whack.

I don't understand why theater managers put 3D on their biggest screens and best showtimes and 2D on small screens in the afternoon or late night; a sold-out 8pm 2D show will make as much $$$ as a 2/3 full 3D show, but sell nearly double as much in concession. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elessar Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 (edited) You can't just calculate 3D receipts from 2DAnd i don't. Last time i checked $400m is much less than $550m. Even without 3D ROTK adjusts to close to $500m. Edited December 23, 2012 by Elessar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 But the Hobbit look nothing like the other films. And that is part of the problem with the marketing is that in my opinion it just does not look appealing. So when I predicted 300 and 1,000,000,000 there was nothing out of whack with that either your expectations your Outlook your analysis of it is what was flawed.

The Futurist Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 The hobbit is doing fine but with expectations people are calling it poor.Expectations have nothing to do with anything.Next to the original trilogy, TH is doing quite poorly with a massive drop in attendance.Next to the average tentpole, TH is doing very well.TH is a great success but we are talking about one of the most renown intellectual properties in the world.

fishstick Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 (edited) Sat looking likeTH1 14.3-5m,JR 5.7-8m,TI40 4,ROTG 2.2,GT 2, Liinc 2.2,Minc 1.9,Sky 1.9,CDSWA 700k,BD2 1m,WIR 744kTH Sat is higher than I hoped but lower than I feared. I hope it starts falling behind FOTR numbers soon and even BD2. Edited December 23, 2012 by fishnets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
