spizzer Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 (edited) What time do you stop counting? Depends. With TDKR I had stopped counting a few hours before midnights, as I couldn't get myself to do anything related on that Friday. Avengers, I did a count the night of, just to get a sense of the shows, but didn't get sellouts. THG, I did a count that morning, maybe a few hours before the one I just did. That said, IM3 had 820 shows listed yesterday afternoon, which was already 110 ahead of the next highest (THG). I have an exam at 7 today, so I won't be able to do anymore until after that.

Fake Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 ^ 60M-75M+. Not a record.Won't be surprised if she posts this. She is such a genius! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementeleus Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 (edited) The only place where I'm maybe lowballing too much is Friday's day number. I don't think my Saturday/Sunday drops are unreasonable at all. If Fridays end up a bit higher than my prediction, then low-mid $150s will be the total.

CoolioD1 Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Meanwhile, all of you who haven't seen the movie yet could be helping increase Friday numbers... I drove to all 4000 theaters that are showing it and demanded a refund just so I could make the numbers worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayumanggi Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 The 15.6 M number is no doubt big. However, I think this has a more rush factor than THE AVENGERS. People are excited to see this after the success of that 2012 behemoth. But with a divided audience and not so great reviews, I don't think this will hold well throughout the weekend. If it does, that's good. The second weekend is gonna be interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayumanggi Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 (edited) I expected a 156 M weekend by the way. Though I say over 160 M in Baumer's game. Edited May 3, 2013 by kayumanggi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However you may be right or I may be wrong but it looks to easily match IM2 day business so I think your wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmasterclay Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 I think this is finishing with 162 this weekend, slightly down from my BSG predictions of 166. It's a good number, but WOM is just solid, not outstanding, so 400 might be up for grabs in such a busy month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with Gatsby tracking very well. It may actually break the curse of the second May weekend (though not to the extent of Star Trek, obviously).

I think it is experiencing very good WOM. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
