10/10 in reviews, 9/10 totally utterly loving it,with 1/10 saying its just "very,very good". Tell that to Cinderella Man and every Woody Allen film ever produced.

Between Pirates, and frontloadedness just being really high this summer, I don't think a 3 multiplier is unreasonable. Remember, it's Wednesday and Thursday will be low because all the advertising has been saying the 30th. It won't make that much less that weekend than if it was coming out on a Friday.
And WOM is no guarantee yet, most early reviews for movies like this are strong. And even so, strong reviews does not mean strong WOM. Judging by the fact that it has more romance than action, people could be turned off and bored. Or they could love it, and I'll be eating my words there.
Still though, I'll stick by a 3 multiplier. Getting a 4 is nearly impossible, with Pirates undoubtably killing it.

plus its a kids movie + quality=multiplier much higher then 3, no matter how big opens. yes, lots fo teenagers will be seeing this i think, after the insane crowd reaction they got at the mtv movie awards, but kids andquality qill give this amultiplier probably over 3.7. wotw, with big compitition , little kid appeal, and mixed wom, got a 3.7. superman wiith what looks to be good word of mouth, huge kid appeal, but big compitition, should atleast match that, even if it opens to 90 million.

SR's opening obviously will be the determining factor on its legs. If it has a smaller, disappointing opening, it will have good, durable legs like Batman Begins. If it opens big, its legs will be mediocre-average. Even if the former happens, I still don't see it falling below $200 million.

I think SHAK has a valid point of superman turning off some people.
Those who are expecting an action packed movie with amazing visuals like SM2 won't be getting that here.
THE PLANE SCENE IS SIMPLY NOT ENOUGH AND DOES NOT LOOK THAT GOOD!!
I know people were expecting an awesome HULK smash movie but were teriibly dissapointed when they watched it because they found out it was a PSYCHOLOGICAL DRAMA movie.
If that is what superman becomes. I mean a chick flick with too much ROMANCE and EMOTION with only one or two JUST GOOD action scene NOT AMAZING like SPIDER-MAN 2 then i think SR will end up with 230-250 million domestically.
POTC 2 will be the MOVIE EVENT of the year because it looks like it will be the ultimate action, adventure, comedy and FUN FUN movie of the year.

If BB wasn't so phenomenal, it would've struggled to reach $150 million. _________________

Look I go to the movies all the time in the summer. i've seen pretty much every summer film thus far. And I have to say that the marketing for this film is about as lacklustre as you can get. I'm not sue what marketing you are speaking of.
