Captain Craig Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 So is the assumption that $400m is now almost a lock? Which I admit, as much a believer as I was, I had trouble going all the way to $400m with my call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pensivepenguin Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I sort of figured that I just can't fathom how people could be disappointed with a film that still is going to be the number 2 opener of all time. Yeah. The expectations are borderline ridiculous sometimes. I mean, I guess there will be some mild letdown when you were initially told it'll be at 175 but in the end it's "only" 172. But I don't really understand any disappointment with being the #2 opener with 172M, especially when just three days ago on Friday afternoon in these very forums, estimates were being projected to only be 150-160 and people here were freaking out then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be a lock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jawa Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I predicted a 410m total and #1 DOM. I'm feeling pretty confident about both of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayumanggi Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Source puts final #IronMan3 opening wknd at about $173M, very close to what Disney est it would be. Same SUN drop as IM2. https://twitter.com/giteshpandya/status/331408251491074050 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyGossamer Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 (edited) I thought a few others expected a 27%+ drop from Saturday to Sunday was very possible given Spider-man 1, which had phenomenal WOM, had a Cinco de Mayo Sunday and dropped 27%. So, sans the holiday, Iron Man 3 likely drops harder from Friday to Saturday than it did OR drops 25% or so from Saturday to Sunday. Either way, an OW over $170M's still damn impressive. Also falls in line with previous Iron Man flicks... Edited May 6, 2013 by JohnnyGossamer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SultanOfWhat Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 So No Sunday Avengers effect?Oh.Lets hope today stays over 15M... $1.2B WW for IM3 coming off just IM2, without the Avengers in between? No way! Can't believe people still don't believe that there is an Avengers effect. At $9 average ticket (reasonable with kids tickets and matinees pulling the average ticket price down and 3D pulling it up), Avengers would have sold about 168 million tickets WW. For a film with great reviews and great WOM, that will have a lasting impact on follow-ups. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 out of the world weekend for IM3. sunday drop is not relevant at all. After all I doubt anyone is expecting avengers legs with so much competition ahead.it will still make 450M+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Should make around 75 million next weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pensivepenguin Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 (edited) So The Avengers effect only works Friday and Saturday? I'm confused. Expect IM2-ish legs/drops, but with bigger numbers in play courtesy of the Avengers effect.

Captain Craig Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 The Disney Board members who approved the go ahead in '09 to purchase Marvel Studios for some $4 Billion have got to be continually patting each others back. Talk about a return on investment already! And that's just Box Office. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
