#ED Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 No sellouts here at the IMAX theater. The busiest IMAX in the USA. Lincoln Square. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cedarpoint1111 Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 (edited) I think the estimate will be 170m but then with actuals it will rise to 171m even though everyone thought it would go down to below DH2. Edited May 3, 2013 by CEDAR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 With my own personal extrapolation, I got 165.8M. Maybe it will fall a little short of DH2. I got the EXACT same. Stop looking at my answers! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmasterclay Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 My crowd seemed to like the movie.....but I wouldn't say they loved it, to be honest. Lot of "Yea, it was good" comments while I was leaving the theater, but no real raves. Laughs throughout, but no "whoas" or "that's awesome" type reactions.

ChD Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Based on what precedent? I simply don't think that after a 15.6M midnight, it's going to barely add 36M on Friday to make 51.6M and then to increase. It's midnight opening is too big to score that low on Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementeleus Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Just to clarify, my $149m was including previews. I'm aware I'm low balling it, but I think it's going to closer to that than all this $170m+ being thron around. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 I give it 0 chances to increase on Saturday. Avengers did. Iron man 2 did. Iron Man 3 will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackO Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 So.....1. Will IM3 open higher than TDKR?2. Will IM3 open higher than DH2?Post your fucking opinions. Those who get both right will get hypothetical cookies. 1. Probably. 2. I don't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 hey lest not forget TA opening weekend ^^^ I served a lot of crow on the world of kj forums that weekend with people dimissing my theater reports... I still dont see any pattern that can let us extrapolate canada gross to overall domestic number. Some movies(like potter/lotr) do lot better in canada compared to other movies. So I am not convinced we can just take that as a gospel. Anyway it is going to be HUGE. As I said it will be between 160-180M. I still doubt it will have avengers kind of OW and so smaller saturday increase and bigger sunday drop. So my OW extrapolation is 170M for now.

I am skeptical it will go that low. Plus that means since this opened at 9PM crowd which normally would have gone for friday evening show went for thursday 9PM show since that ended at a sane hour.
