redfirebird2008 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Do you really think Disney / WB care about tickets sold? No, they only care about money! So, it's perfectly right Even then it didn't destroy them. Destroy would be TA's opening compared to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessie Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 (edited) It is wrong though. It had lower ticket sales than both. 3D is the reason it grossed more.I don't think it had lower ticket sales than TDKR. Edited May 6, 2013 by Jessie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I don't think it had lower ticket sales than TDKR. We'll see what the actuals say, but Rth's most recent update is probably going to drop it below TDKR's ticket sales. They are pretty close to each other. Certainly not a situation to talk shit about "destroying" anything. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do appreciate that regarding IMAX and you are right about the shooting. In any event, IM3 had an amazing opening and it'd be nice if people like Fullbuster would stop trying to start flame wars. I love both characters and I think it's amazing that Iron Man has come so far in a short amount of time. RDJ has Marvel and Disney by the balls at this point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stingray Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Any rational human being knows that TDKR would have done around 225m OW if it weren't for Aurora, and close to 800m domestic if it had 3D. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stingray Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 lulz...but seriously, 175ish and 460ish. I agree about the OW, but I think the total would have been more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lab276 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 The whole ticket sold thing vs how much $$$ the movie made is only used as a crutch when the movie you're championing ends up getting it's ass kicked at the box office and it's used to try and keep the movie in the game, and in this case, that would be both TA and IM3 beating TDKR in OW total..It's for the box office tragics.

redfirebird2008 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I agree about the OW, but I think the total would have been more. Who knows. In any case, it will be interesting to see how high IM3 can go with the insane amount of competition later this month. It has 2 weeks with very little competition, so hopefully it can rack up a ton of business before STID comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stingray Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Anyways, I had IM3 at 405m. It'll probably do a bit more now, say 420-430m. I don't think its beating TDKR. But we'll see next weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
