MasterDodsen Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Well, if part one can garner 30M midnights, what will part two get? Deathly Hallows will have a run for its money next November, that's for sure.I'll still think it could pull 148M for the weekend, and about half will come from today.

MrWhoopee Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I loved the movie, I must say that the fans are going to flock to this, it's the best of the franchise IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kells Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 How is it every other weekend, we have outlets fighting to get estimates out there by 2:00, but now it's totally quiet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CramaG12 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I loved the movie, I must say that the fans are going to flock to this, it's the best of the franchise IMO.I'm pretty sure fans will flock regardless of whether or not it is a "good" movie. Impressive number, but I don't think DH will be in much danger come November. I don't think twilight numbers will get the same kind of boost HP got for being the last movie.

kayumanggi Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Have just watched the film. Enjoyed it for what it is. Fans will love the ending the most. Wait after the end credits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilmBuff Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I think slight under 300 mil for this film. It seems to have TOXIC Wom, and it will be even more front-loaded due to it being the final film in the Twilight series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The part one should have given it away. Edited November 18, 2011 by 75live Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ariadne Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Awesome for BD1 - beating all the previous Twilight midnights with no Imax - you can't ask for more than that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone I know who's actually seen the movie, has liked it - most fans loved it. Now certain critics, who have always hated Twilight and sat down to watch the movie expecting to hate it - wow guess what, they hated it. That was entirely predictable, what wasn't predictable was the overwhelmingly positive fan reaction. Among all the Twilight fans I know, this is the only movie they all loved.

Trixie99 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Great number for BD1. It should make over 145 million this weekend for sure. Maybe even over 150 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is the way it usually plays out with Twilight. I remember when Eclipse came out, the reviews were mediocre but the fans really loved it. The bad reviews will never affect a Twilight movie and their fans reactions to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tracygee Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 How is the reception of this one compared to the other movies?From what I'm seeing...it's better. The critics (and men) really liked Eclipse a lot. The fans were mixed on it.This one definitely has its "WTF" moments (and the fans acknowledge that because the book was so bizarre), but the fans think they got the romance right--and in the end, that's what matters with this series.

flyingsolo Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 How is the reception of this one compared to the other movies?I didn't care for the book, but I just saw it and loved it. (Second fav behind Twilight) It's definitely a return to what the fans loved about Twilight: More Edward and Bella and it just felt more emotional and character driven.Bill Condon should be given a lot of credit for taking some really difficult and strange book material and making it work on screen.I definitely want to see it again, and that's something I didn't feel walking out of New Moon or Eclipse.
