- Opening weekend was like 75mil. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 20, 10:17 1
  - hmm, i knew it was lower than I would have guessed, but that's *lower*. -- nm - Andie - Go Jays! Oct 20, 10:19
FWIW, it's trading over there at a 158M OW. -- nm - Shaun Oct 20, 10:14
i'll go w/ the obligatory 312.50 . . . - call me The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown Oct 20, 10:12 1

201M -- nm - Andie - Go Jays! Oct 20, 10:08
150 -- nm - eag Oct 20, 10:07
What's Avengers' record? - jangles Oct 20, 10:06 2
- It doesn't have a record. Jurassic World has 208mil, Avengers 1 has 207mil. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 20, 10:07 1
  - Okay $209 -- nm - jangles Oct 20, 10:09
I'll go with $170, which will double the current record -- nm - Beaker Oct 20, 10:06 11
- That sounds about right. Something along the lines of 85 million Friday, 45 million Saturday, 40 million Sunday. -- nm - Inigo Oct 20, 10:12 10
  - Whatever % they might lose to holiday shopping or travel should more than be made up for by repeat viewers - jangles Oct 20, 10:14 9
    - Over time, yes. In the first weekend, no. - Inigo Oct 20, 10:20 7
      - This is my comparison. If LotR didn't bring the GFBs opening weekend... -- nm - spamlet Oct 20, 10:24 6
        
        Well, it did. It just opened on Wednesday, and was 12 years ago. - Inigo Oct 20, 10:28
        
        Star Wars has way broader appeal than just the hardcore fans -- nm - jangles Oct 20, 10:26 3
        
        If i even see it, it won't be opening weekend. - spamlet Oct 20, 10:40
        
        Let's compare 2002. LOTR2 - 340m, STAR2 - 302mil. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 20, 10:30 1
        
        Yes the prequels were turrible -- nm - jangles Oct 20, 10:40
        
        It's the most extreme test we've ever had of the BOP theory that a blockbuster will open huge at any point on the calendar. - David Oct 20, 10:26
    - yeah, i don't think this will follow models. -- nm - Andie - Go Jays! Oct 20, 10:15
My guess -- OW of 151.2m -- delist of $525m -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 20, 10:05
More than that. -- nm - JaxSean Oct 20, 10:05 2
- (Real guess: $186M) -- nm - JaxSean Oct 20, 10:06
- "More than that" plus $1, Bob -- nm - ty97 Oct 20, 10:06
