redfirebird2008 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 That's an extreme reach, unless you're calling Rth out. I'm not calling him out. One year ago his first update for TA was 70 and "maybe more." It ended up at almost 81. He is saying 65 at least for IM3 and "maybe more." Based on the numbers we knew about earlier, 70+ is still on the table. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 It seems like the numbers for this all day have been the most unreliable for a mega blockbuster in quite some time. We can't seem to get anything locked down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druv10 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Is it a good number? Definitely, it's going to make 155-160M OW. Very strong for IM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayumanggi Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 That was the BOG number from hours ago. Rth has said 65M looks strong with lean towards higher gross so 160M is still very much alive. His initial report said 58 M - 64 M. Then updated it to "it's now CLOSER to 64 M. So after saying "it's closer", it could be like 70 M? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jandrew Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 It seems like the numbers for this all day have been the most unreliable for a mega blockbuster in quite some time. We can't seem to get anything locked down. Because they try to be fancy and report them while eastern theaters are rolling into matinee and western theaters are serving breakfast. Reliable late numbers is better than unreliable "9am just throwing shit out there then revising it 24 times until official estimate" numbers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfirebird2008 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Nikke's lack of updates concerns me Why would it? She didn't say squat about TA until really, really early Saturday morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Nikki's update would just be super wrong, anyway 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZattMurdock Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 (edited) I'll throw the gauntlet and say $175m -$190m. Let me be the worthy of this year, Rtheimdall. Edited May 4, 2013 by iStark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jandrew Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Is it a good number? May be a little dissapointing to some, but 60 something mil in 1 day is nothing to scuff at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayumanggi Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Not sure. I'm just waiting for Rth to confirm this number. But didn't he already say 65 M? Do you think 70 M is still possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Ok, so it's a good number, but pretty expected. So it still feels a bit "meh" to me. Katniss sold more tickets so I'm happy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druv10 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 But didn't he already say 65 M? Do you think 70 M is still possible? He said 65M with slight lean towards higher + west coast is usually strong for SH movies so 70M is still on the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catlover Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 No. Depends where the #s go. People are reacting to a number from hours and hours ago Ah, that's why I always skim through the previous pages to get the newest update. Btw, I had never heard about Mandarin until IM3. So the twist didn't bother me at all. Heck before 2008, I always thought Iron Man was a lame superhero lol. Although, Ben Kingsley could've been a much more exciting villain than Guy Pierce.
