This is really absurd. Even if this looks bad it will manage 45m-50m OW so I don't think it will wind up without an IM less than 2.0. Being superhero movie I don't think it will do less than 100m
EDIT I meant 45m-50m OW and not 45m-90m OW

The posters are getting ridiculous (some really, really fake-looking creatures) and I don't think I realized how much of a sci-fi film it is rather than a superhero movie. Even master comedian Ryan Reynolds can't save this one. Anyone else feeling the same? Members: MG Casey BK asalem182 MadGez The Dark Shape |

nope, it should do 125 at the worst. I see around 150-170 for it. |

I also think $120M is the lowest I can see it going, but you never know. Out of all the superhero films coming out this summer it deffentially looks like the worst one. However, I will still see it because I'm a big GL fan. I'm OUT. |

The whole "sci-fi is a hard sell" angle applies to movies like The Island. People are going to understand what Green Lantern is: a superhero movie. No way this does less than 100 mil. |

I'm in. Not sure what the hell you guys are on. So what if it is a superhero flick? Shit looking flicks don't do well. How is different from A-Team and Prince of Persia and etc etc etc. 4 superhero flicks in one summer, joke advertising, cheesy and campy, unknown character, rom-com star etc. Americans must be real superhero nerds if it does well. |

In. $29.5m / $77.2. And I feel I'm being generous. |

I don't know why, people in theaters and what are still reacting to this one better than any other superhero films this year. Its only disadvantage is coming out later in the summer |

OK, after the new trailer, it makes me feel a little better about the marketing. It does look like a fun movie, just not for everyone. I'm raising the club to under $100 million.

Still no way....Ryan will definitely help appeal women and this could be a little frontloaded compared to any other superhero movie this summer. Also that the movie seems to be good so good WOM can get this stable very soon. Sub-100m is not happening....this is not even the last summer superhero movie, so this is not happening |

Are you kidding? Green Lantern looks the worse of the four. People are on some good superhero drugs. |

I think that the huge variety of aliens will appeal to kids. I think that Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds will make this appeal to women. I think that solid reviews and marketing that keeps getting better as the incredibly complex f/x are finished will get lots of butts in seats. I think that this club will be a massive failure. |

IN!! This film doesnt look too good. I was looking forward to this when they announced it a couple of years back, but it doesnt look good and one of the comic book films will have to disappoint. OW -$35m Total - $80-$90m Thing is it still will have a decent gross just under $100m. |

So when you made Change Up making 180m club which no one joined (yet) is ok but if a superhero movie looks appealing to others they are kidding? Are you telling me that your views/predictions are superior to others? Are YOU kidding? |

I don't see how anyone could argue this is set to do less than Green Hornet. You really think this movie has less appeal than that did? Not a chance, 120m is the absolute floor. |

Easily out. There is too much talent working on this film, and too much of a good story that will appeal to mainstream audiences for this to finish with under 100M. |
