riczhang Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 So I guess $170M+ is dead?Yes unless we get an upper 60s OD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Something to consider: IM1 and Avengers' first Sundays didn't fall on Mother's Day. IM2's did and IM3's doesn't. I expect a 25-26% drop.65m54m40m159m weekendI don't know about any bad WOM either. My crowd freaking ate it up last night. Well, Ive posted sources for mixed WOM....it's real. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 But we wouldn't have gotten amazing Trevor/Kingsley. I think that the probelm really isn`t the twist but the fact that the real deal is lame. If the real deal was great himself up to that point, not as a villain but as a character than twist wouldn`t piss off. But they really played KINGsley genius to the max without trying anything with Pierce and now shit hit the fan. And it stinks! Stay away for at least 20 minutes! I must see that scene.

John Marston Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 the trailer for this movie I hear was extreme false advertising 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wileECoyote Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Because there's no such thing as an "Avengers effect."Oh there is otherwise IM3 would've been in the low 100's at best. Just like TH3 will most likely drop from TH2. In fact if the worst case TA effect was true this would open lower because it isn't TA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitik Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Yeah, Avengers effect is bigger overseas because the 2 Iron Man movies were much more unknown overseas. But here the 2 Iron Man movies were already huge, so therefore less room for any Avengers effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementeleus Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Taking the middle ground: 64 51.8 (+7% from Friday minus previews) 37.3 (-28%) 153.1m. ...in which case the Stingray rules this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ball Lightning Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 So I guess $170M+ is dead? Numbers could still be from 55m-70m (no idea at the moment). So not dead, just dying. But a $150-$160 OW is still fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Well, North America has known Marvel and Iron Man is cool since Iron Man 1. International audiences seem to have really just figured that out with Avengers. We're just ahead of the curve...but it mitigates the effect.I just pulled that out of my ass in case anyone wants to argue my point. That makes sense. OS is always behind unless it`s something very known to them (HP) but once they get familar with the new thing sequels explode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 the trailer for this movie I hear was extreme false advertising Eh, only if you had a problem with the twist. You can't give it away in the trailer, otherwise that defeats the purpose. Trailers are very rarely 100% true though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pensivepenguin Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 So I guess $170M+ is dead? It was never really alive to begin with. People just got really carried away based on OS numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gopher Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 the trailer for this movie I hear was extreme false advertisingYes and no. The film delivers on all the action the trailer promises (can't say the same for IM2). But I love the way they hid the second/third act from trailers and TV spots. Much of IM3 was a delightful surprise for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted May 4, 2013 Author Founder / Operator Share Posted May 4, 2013 They'll be ok but I agree, hype will outweigh reaction. I was pleasantly surprised but I was walking in expecting iron man 2...you will be impressed if you come in like that. If you're expecting avengers though...you'll be let down. Or Iron Man 1 for that matter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Marston Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 I remember hyping up the filmmakers themselves hyping up Mandarin as the ultimate Iron Man villain, how it was all going to tie in the to the first movie, how the final battle was more epic than the Avengers and that Joss Whedon was wondering how he was going to top Iron Man 3 for Avengers 2. Jesus, maybe if they didn't overhype it so much expectations would have been more reasonable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
