 Predict Taken 2's opening weekend The international trailer has been released.
The film opens via 20th Century Fox on October 5th, opposite Tim Burton's Frankenweenie, the musical comedy Pitch Perfect, and the Ethan Hawke-led supernatural horror film Sinister.

Re: Predict Taken 2's opening weekend Is there any chance of a Bourne Identity/Bourne Supremacy box-office dynamic happening here?

Re: Predict Taken 2's opening weekend Any word if it'll be R or PG-13.
PG-13 I think 44-55 is definitely possible

Re: Predict Taken 2's opening weekend $50-55 million at this point, but a Bourne Ultimatum type opening is very possible.

Re: Predict Taken 2's opening weekend I don't think it translates as well into a sequel as many. 40m-45m.

Re: Predict Taken 2's opening weekend No OW. Look this isn't going to pull the same crowd as the first and this is going to be all Hangover 2 situation again.

Re: Predict Taken 2's opening weekend I think the trailer does a really good job at not making the premise seem retarded, thinking $60-65m at this point.

Re: Predict Taken 2's opening weekend I voted in the 40-45 range. I'm staying conservative for now, but I wouldn't be suprised if it did go higher. Liam Nesson's appeal should not be underestimated, especially when he is back playing a iconic role. He was already able to turn a R-rated, indie, survival thriller into a $50M+ hit, so he is definitely at the peak of his drawing power.

Re: Predict Taken 2's opening weekend Looks like Niam will get a big hit from this and expect increases overseas...

Re: Predict Taken 2's opening weekend Could see Rush Hour type of increase.

Re: Predict Taken 2's opening weekend This will do well, but it will have been almost 4 years since the original. I don't think this is automatically doing $50 m + from Taken goodwill. I can see $30's. If this were released within two years of the original, I'd say it could have done $60 m +. But 4 years is a long time for this type of movie imo.

Re: Predict Taken 2's opening weekend Taken is nothing special but it was very pleasing movie.
You had Liam Nesson doing everything possible to save his daughter and you rooted for him and cheered him on. Add in some epic one liners and some cool action...
I think that is the reason why Taken was such a big hit and was so well liked. It has a 7.9 on IMDB which is great for a action flick.

Re: Predict Taken 2's opening weekend Taken opened to $24m. There's absolutely no chance in the world this opens to less.
