What's the 3rd?

Posted by Will Hunting (aka JoeMetz) May 29 '12, 10:55

I'm betting Hobbit comes in lower than you expect if that's the 3rd.

- Then what's the other one? Avengers and TDK are the only 2 I'm thinking of. -- nm - Will Hunting May 29, 10:57 40
  - what does anyone guess Spiderman's going to do? -- nm - JenBro May 29, 10:59 19
    - I'm thinking 225mil. - Will Hunting May 29, 11:00 17
      - higher but not 500 million. I think it tops $350 -- nm - Remlik May 29, 11:05 6
        
        Don't Green Lantern this. -- nm - David, neutral May 29, 11:15
        
        I'm probably the most pessimistic person around on this -- nm - Will Hunting May 29, 11:11 4
        
        The early word on the movie is not good from what I've heard. -- nm - MDH May 29, 11:12 3
        
        grain of salt: I've read the opposite...so who knows. -- nm - Remlik May 29, 11:15
        
        Heh -- nm - Roger More May 29, 11:13
        
        Oh, I mean in terms of money. I expect it to be bad quality wise. -- nm - Will Hunting May 29, 11:13
      - Maybe, and I agree with your IM, though it actually looks better than the originals. - Don Homer May 29, 11:01 4
        
        I agree the trailer looks good, but the early word I'm hearing is the movie is not good. Grain of salt though because i heard on the Internet. -- nm - Roger More May 29, 11:06
        
        see I thought the trailer looked really good too ... - JenBro May 29, 11:05 1
        
        yes, looks alot less cartoonish -- nm - Beaker May 29, 11:17
        
        the trailer was definitely neat -- nm - Beryllium May 29, 11:03
      - Indeed - hmm. What about Skyfall and Twilight? -- nm - Beryllium May 29, 11:01 4
        
        175mil and 325mil -- nm - Will Hunting May 29, 11:02 1
        
        *Likes* -- nm - MDH May 29, 11:03
        
        "Skyfall" will be lucky to hit $200 I think, and Twilight barely makes $300. -- nm - MDH May 29, 11:02 1
        
        Yeah, $200m for a Bond movie is optimistic. twilight movies make all their money opening weekend then collapse. -- nm - Roger More May 29, 11:05
    - 312.50 -- nm - decline May 29, 10:59
  - did Hunger Games get there? nm -- nm - groiny May 29, 10:58 1
    - Internationally, yes -- nm - Beryllium May 29, 10:59
  - Hunger Games is just 5 mil short of 400 mil has a slight shot at 500 -- nm - eag May 29, 10:58 9
    - It's not guaranteed to pass $405 million. -- nm - David, neutral May 29, 11:00
    - It made 2mil this weekend. It's not even a lock to get to 400mil. -- nm - Will Hunting May 29, 10:59
    - It's $100M short and earning $2M a week. -- nm - Reagen May 29, 10:59 6
      - Yeah my goof no shot at 500 mil will probably make 400 mil -- nm - eag May 29, 11:03
      - Where is Avengers going to end up? -- nm - Don Homer May 29, 11:01 4
        
        600-625 seems like the range. -- nm - Reagen May 29, 11:03
        
        My rough guess...it scrapes 600mil. -- nm - Will Hunting May 29, 11:01 2
        
        Any shot at #2 Titanic? -- nm - eag May 29, 11:04 1
        
        Not likely given the 3D release. -- nm - Will Hunting May 29, 11:05
  - Prometheus has potential -- nm - Beryllium May 29, 10:58 7
    - If it gets to half of 500mil, the studio is counting it as a tremendous win. - Will Hunting May 29, 10:58 5
      - I think if it hits 200M the studio will be beside itself. -- nm - MDH May 29, 11:01 4
        
        Why the doubt on Prometheus? (I've been wondering about how it will go myself) -- nm - Roger More May 29, 11:11 2
        
        Well if you could decipher the impenetrable marketing, that's more than I can say for myself -- nm - con_carne May 29, 11:20
        
        High level Sci-Fi is a hard sell to the general public. -- nm - MDH May 29, 11:19
        
        I think you're under by at least 75M. -- nm - Reagen May 29, 11:04
    - Hahahaha, no. -- nm - MDH May 29, 10:58
