Re: The Avatar Prediction | Tracking Thread Reviews are critical for Avatar. If Avatar maintains its 90% + review average some how by Friday, it would be the difference between a $50 m and $80 m + opening weekend imo. Google Trends are showing high, high search interest in Avatar's reviews over any other aspect of it. There are many people on the fence on this one, but if it keeps the reviews together its primed for a massive break out.

Re: The Avatar Prediction | Tracking Thread It'll likely finish in the low/mid 80's, which is just fine. The negative reviews so far say the same thing "weak story, but pretty", so that'll be a common trend that will probably keep it from 90,
Though it's getting slightly better reviews than I thought, so the reviews so far have me interested.

Re: The Avatar Prediction | Tracking Thread After having seen the film, I think the it will have good, but not spectacular WOM. So a 4.0 multiplier sounds about right to me. With a 60 million opening that would mean a 240 million gross. Which I think will be very good for it.
I have to say thought that the romance angle is something that will probably appeal a great deal to a lot of women. There's not uncanny valley in Avatar, the navi's feel completely real and relatable. So that might push WOM further. The love story is very dramatic, and might hit the right buttons. I thought it was engaging, but not *that* emotionally affecting. But a lot of females might disagree.

Re: The Avatar Prediction | Tracking Thread Chip Munkington wrote: I love how people point out it's cornyness/cheesyness... but Titanic was corny/cheesy beyond belief! The film is somewhat corny/cheesy, but in a way that is not going to bother mainstream audiences at all. It's exactly the kind of cheese that will appeal to big audiences. I saw the film with four males in their late 20's, and only one of them complained about the cheesiness, and he's a hardcore movie geek. The film has so much badassery and ass-kicking, that that the cheesiness isn't really a problem.
