I doubt that matters. Once people get invested in a series, they will watch it regardless (eg Twilight), and the first movie was strong enough to keep the interest high.

Obv the second movie will sell more tickets than the first one.

WWZ looking at a 65M opening weekend...not bad since typically only one non-franchise movie a year opens over 50M

Just needs to have longevity now

B+ Cinemascore gives hope

I think Friday numbers are a hard way to gauge how the weekend will turn out based on the fact that there is a strong family movie in the running for number 1. Saturday/Sunday will turn out a lot more family moviegoers than singles, so I expect the numbers to taper off a bit for WWZ, and increase a bit for MU

Also, Man of Steel taking such a big drop on their friday numbers is something I didnt expect when I spoke of WWZ's demise.

Monsters will beat WWZ this weekend, sure

Nobody said it would out gross Monsters

Right, I get that, but I was expecting Monsters to take a bigger chunk of the WWZ audience than the friday numbers indicated, and I think we will see that more so on Saturday and Sunday

WWZ ended up at 66M so Friday numbers were a good predictor this time

Should do 150M as should Heat and Pacific Rim so 850M from our top 4 movies


I'm putting our overall over/under at 1.27B

Any other teams think they will go over that?

akson + Donkx4 look in pretty good shape even after MoS did poorly this weekend vs. WWZ. Should have around 800-850M with The Lone Ranger, Sin City 2 and Riddick to come. On your estimates you'd have a 130M edge with Jack Ryan, RIPD, The Delivery Men and Jobs. Probably come down to whether TLR sucks.

zomg/domer2 are still in it although I thought the Anchorman 2 trailer was a little underwhelming :/ TimeLady/filthy are the dark horses. Elysium looks awesome. Frozen looks promising (Tangled and Wreck-It Ralph made 200M~). Ender's Game and The Mortal Instruments are massive wildcards.

We know it was delayed. We can pick anytime? Subject to the film picked not opening for at least four weeks right?

I did not know that.


I guess we'll take The World's End. Maybe this will be a breakout hit by the director of Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and Scott Pilgrim v. the World, all of which I enjoyed but none of which did more than $31.5 million.

Estimating closer to 900 than 850 from our top 4 movies as wwz gonna do 180-190 and heat 150-160 so up to 350 total instead of 300...just need pacific rim to not flop
