There are two clubs so far, but no official prediction thread:
viewtopic.php?f=12&t=77321
viewtopic.php?f=12&t=75298

With JURASSIC WORLD doing what it does now, did GOTG2 go from a $300m grosser to a $500m grosser thanks to Chris Pratt?

Not sure it even beats the 1st.

155/425 if it is good

135/340 if it sucks or is even mediocre.

No.

Remember Iron Man 2 and Age of Ultron, guys. Following an incredibly well-received film does not guarantee a box office spike for the sequel.

They were both poorly received. I expect Guardians will do meh if it is poorly received as well.

Iron Man is the better comparison and I agree.

Both were box office disappointments from day 1.

I think mixed reviews had a factor. Notice how their most impressive performances (TA, IM, CA2 and GOTG) all had RT scores near 90.

But this is under the assumption that Guardians 2 will kick all kinds of ass.

The first was one of the worst films I have ever seen.

I mean it was. The beginning with his Mother had nothing to do with anything, not even SW himself because he went through no sort of character change.

It has to decrease. I'll go for $220m. After all, it's under the control of Marvel, so it will try and contain too many links to other franchises and it will try the same formula as the first without making anything more exciting or larger or more funny.

A bigger decrease than Age of Ultron from The Avengers? That's ridiculous.

I think 125/130 /325 sounds right.

It's not decreasing below 300m. It will open bigger - perhaps 150m and finish up in the 350-400m range. Even if it matches the original it would be fine.

Did Chris Pratt really help GOTG? I don't think that JW will make it jump so much. It will open big only if the marketing is great. The first one had inspired marketing which was very fresh and different. Its not going to increase huge OW if its just more of the same.

As of now $130m/$350m total.

Should open at around $105-120 mil.
Finish with about $310-345 mil.

It's all over again, people overpredicting marvel sequels.

300m max


Star Wars VIII is releasing in the same month

It's not so much that he was a draw in the first one, as the "Big name in the role that made him famous" factor, like you see with Arnold and Gibson.

But I guess we'll see if Marvel is just inherently incompetent/cursed at topping themselves with sequels.
