Rovex Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Bad news for quality Cinema, good news for the Box Office, but really this is one of the easiest movies to predict is it not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 That's fantastic. Much more than I was expecting. Should come pretty close to New Moon. 135-140m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted November 18, 2011 Founder / Operator Share Posted November 18, 2011 Just out of curiosity, if the midnight number is the biggest yet, why would it fall below NM? I think it will do between 140-150. I'm just not sure why it would fall below 135?My own opinion is mostly out of conviction to my predictions. :lol:New Moon was the second film in the series whereas this is the fourth. I think there's as an equal argument for it performing like New Moon as there is for it having a larger fall-off after midnight/opening day. Which is to say, let's not count our chickens yet: anything from $120-150 million is on the table right now, I feel. I'm just standing by my prediction and going to the low end of that until it proves me wrong (as this series so frequently does). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Just out of curiosity, if the midnight number is the biggest yet, why would it fall below NM? I think it will do between 140-150. I'm just not sure why it would fall below 135?I don't see it falling below $130m, unless it has an OD of $66m. If so, then there is no chance it'll exceed $135m.But, like I've told you already, I really can't see it opening below Eclipse's OD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Can this hit 50 today?It will hit 50M no problem. The question is whether 60M+ is in play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted November 18, 2011 Author Share Posted November 18, 2011 Can this hit 50 today?50 what? Do you mean 50 on top of the 30 mill? No, that is almost impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 50m without midnights... no way.Should do near 70m for the full day though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted November 18, 2011 Author Share Posted November 18, 2011 If this were to hit 80OD, that would be more tickets sold than DH2 and I don't think that will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted November 18, 2011 Founder / Operator Share Posted November 18, 2011 Its an interesting dynamic. New Moon had the larger opening day, despite having lower midnights and no matinee show advantage (due to the time of year) where as Eclipse had the larger midnight (due to the time of year), but lower total opening day despite having a matinee advantage (as well as IMAX).So, we've already seen one film break the midnight record and still miss out on NM's total opening day...its entirely possible that could happen again. Or, it may not. It'll be fun finding out though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cozmeesah Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 (edited) 82.1 M on Friday? Meaning 52 M more on top of MID today? No. :lol:I try not to ever underestimate Twilight myself, but no. That won't happen. Edited November 18, 2011 by Cozmees Everdeen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted November 18, 2011 Author Share Posted November 18, 2011 That's insane Hiccup.NM adjusts to 76 mill OD. No IMAX either. Its not impossible, just unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
