Post Re: Avengers: Endgame 300 million+ opening weekend club
I can't believe these numbers being thrown around are possible, much less plausible. It's mind boggling. I remember shitting my pants in 2001 when Harry Potter opened to $90m. (and then the next year spontaneously ejaculating when Spider-man hit $114m). Fuckin nuts to be talking $300m in a "weekend."

Would be very cool if Endgame's opening weekend matched the runaway success total gross of the first Marvel movie: Iron Man's $318m would be the target. :huh:

I don't think this is hitting $300 million, that is a huge increase over Infinity War's already nuts gross. I will say - this is where simply tracking admissions in terms of dollars would help a lot.

If you add in 3D and inflation, $280 is just the next step up in the long line of comic blockbusters pushing the limits.

I think $300m is a formality now. All signs point to Endgame smashing lW's record.

If it increase by the same % that TFA did over JW or that Avengers did over Potter 7 (or as per any of the previous three record breakers) it will well and truly clear $300m.

Considering that Endgame is less Thursday centric than TFA, 80m+ really makes sense.

Final Friday Tally (Anchorage, AK)

Sellouts: 29
Showings: 81

there are still 7 showings to go today but 5 of them are sold out, and the other two do not have advanced seating and are also unlikely to sellout in advance.

pretty epic friday, 5 less confirmed sellouts than the thursday previews while also have nearly 25 more showings.

Two less sellouts than Friday, but the theaters were also double and tripling down on optimal time slots today. Performance was on par if not better than Friday with 5 extra showings.



I do not have the Saturday morning performance for TFA anymore :mer:

Avatar WW is out of reach. These movies are frontloaded even in OS markets. IW didn't reach $700m domestic so with a bigger opening that's the target domestically and even with China it's not reaching $2b OS.


Do you still believe this nonsense. its making almost 1.3B in just OW !!!!

The fact that it's going to BLOW past $300m...

Infinity War had SO much hype, instantly became iconic and a cultural phenomenon, the Thanos "snap" thing and people dissolving is easily one of the most iconic movie moments of the decade....and now this is going to make $100m more on OW. Just how.

SPIDER-MAN delivered the first $100m opening weekend
SPIDER-MAN 3 delivered the first $150m opening weekend
AVENGERS delivered the first $200m opening weekend
ergo
AVENGERS 3 has to deliver the first $250m opening weekend...


Never expected that AVENGERS 4 would skip $300m and go right for the $350m opening weekend record...

Gargantuan for Sunday in December (or any time of year on 2nd thought), a number of shows that are already at between 75-85% capacity that will most likely be sellouts tomorrow as well.
