Remember when such a ceiling was $100M? It was a simpler time... - Cuzzin Todd Nov 17, 08:06 7
- Indeed. As for my question, I don't think it can beat Avengers. Thus far (which means nothing in box office of course) opening in Nov is NOT like May. -- nm - Qale Nov 17, 08:18 6
  - I put almost no stock in release date. But the biggest reason is that it hasn't given any reason to explode the franchise. - Reagen Nov 17, 08:32 3
    - Right, I really wonder if they've not reached their ceiling with the first movie here... - Will Hunting Nov 17, 08:37 2
      - how have the DVD/Blu Ray sales been? Might be an even bigger market if they have been strong -- nm - Beaker Nov 17, 08:39
      - Exactly. -- nm - ♠Spawn♠ Nov 17, 08:38
  - I agree there. Plus, Hunger Games doesn't have the appeal to adults that The Avengers did -- nm - Roger More Nov 17, 08:26 1
    - I think they're going after the female 18-39 range. Cover Girl put out an award-winning couture line based on Girl on Fire. - Trish Nov 17, 10:49
