So the argument for you is already lost. There is no chance it could do 275 million. And the fight will have no impact only the SB generates that much in sports. Unless you think 100 million people are going to be watching it. I doubt it will get even a tenth of this past SB.

Technically it is possible for a film to open well above 300m with a large enough theater count, a large enough 3D share, and based upon the maximum capacity of the collective theaters in the US. _________________The Force Awakens

I'm not sure it is possible. Let's take Eclipse's theatre count of 4,468. To get $300m, Age of Ultron would need an average of $67,145, and with so many theatres getting the film, there would be pretty much no way it could achieve such an average. People would have too many cinema choices to attend. Eclipse could only manage $45,000 in its first 9 days! Let alone 3 days. It is pretty much impossible to get a $300m opening regardless of how many people will now cite that there are enough cinemas in the US to achieve it -- it's just not realistically possible. The Avengers was up to $47,698, so using Eclipse's count, Age of Ultron could get $213m. Still very, very, far off from $300m, and Age of Ultron is likely to decrease, not increase. _________________STOP UIGHUR GENOCIDE IN XINJIANG

Re: The Avengers 2 250m+ OW Club The rules of the sequel still apply here. I don't see anything that is bigger, more threatening, or more epic than The Avengers. Nothing that wasn't already seen and disliked in Transformers: Age of Extinction. Nothing has been added or upped. It's just more of the same.
So I see a drop off. It will gross $450m this time. Perhaps $500m.

Re: The Avengers 2 250m+ OW Club algren is right. my prediction:
175m opening
450m total
i have a feeling that this won't beat iron man 3's opening.

Re: The Avengers 2 250m+ OW Club Magnus wrote: Thursday Night. All Friday. Saturday from morning/afternoon. All Sunday.
There is plenty of opportunity for anyone to watch the fight and Avengers 2. Stop being retarded people. I'm not saying the film won't break the ow record, I think there is no excuse for it not to, barring terrible reviews. I am just saying the fight is going to have an impact. I see no way around that. It's been hyped for years and targets the main demographic. One does not need to be a huge boxing fan at all to have interest. All serious sports fans are going to be interested. I won't say it's like the Super Bowl, because it's not. But it's going to be a huge deal. Avengers 2 is not going to be the biggest pop culture event of it's opening weekend. I'm not sure how much of an impact it will have on it's total. Avengers 2nd Saturday drop should be very good. _________________Ari Emmanuel wrote: I'd rather marry lindsay Lohan than represent Mel Gibson.

It is not impossible, just very improbable. U.S. theaters technically have the necessary capacity to meet the demand for 300m+ in 3 days, the simple fact of the matter is no film has ever come close to selling that many tickets. And a twilight film, c'mon man, those are known for their extreme front-loading, for a film to reach 300m it would have to behave much more like TA than twilight opening wknd. _________________The Force Awakens

Re: The Avengers 2 250m+ OW Club boxoffice.com forecasts 217 million. That would be more than plenty.

Re: The Avengers 2 250m+ OW Club So to get boxing news, you have to be motivated to search it out. I doubt anyone who isn't really into it does that.

Re: The Avengers 2 250m+ OW Club Not really. Like I said, go onto any general news site and if there is a big fight nearing, you will know about it.
