Post PREDATORS>INCEPTION: Summer OWNAGE At It's Finest Bitches
The title of this thread says it all.. Too much internet ype for INCEPTION and all cause Nolan's name is attached to it and if it were any other director, you wouldn't care, while PREDATORS hasn't been getting much love at all and unncecessarily.. I'm calling PREDATORS killing and skinning INCEPTION at the box office.. The mainstream moviegoer won't care about INCEPTION like the Nolan nut lovers do.. Who's in?? Be brave..

That's quite confident in saying that INCEPTION will make 100 Million OW and it's not happening.. I'm calling PREDATORS to match AVP's OW total and OWN INCEPTION.. Too much hype for a directors name attached to it that no one outside the net will care one way or another.. Mindless action rules when it comes to PREDATORS: Something the audience wants to see and not have to try so hard to think about to enjoy like INCEPTION will be: Complicated and boring..

$75/80m should be enough.

For INCEPTION??? You really think the general public outside the internet cares about this movie or Christopher Nolan??? Really???? If Brett Ratner were Directing this, would you be as hyped about it??? PREDATORS on the otherhand is a reboot and a type of movie we haven't seen yet this summer that audiences will be clamoring for...

Trailer reception has been generally positive and has sparked the average Joe's attention, I think.

The Summer is also lacking in a more male themed film than many past Summers. So the opening should do well, if only out of people wanting to see what it's about, and younger males not wanting to see another family/teen/female themed film that the Summer is packed with.

I am in agreement. This will happen. Predators will come before Inception.

WB is milking the "from the director of The Dark Knight" angle very intensely. I won't be surprised if Inception's opening day is larger than Predators' total.

You laugh at this but it's true.. No one outside the internet gives a shit about INCEPTION whether WB insists on the whole dumb "From the Director of TDK" Angle or not cause that's the only way they can sell this.. This has a SHUTTER ISLAND feel to it which means it won't do well either.. PREDATORS will own in a few weeks.. FOX is saving the best for last with keeping a tight lip on the movie itself.. Good for them and smart..

Good will counts for a lot. History teaches this time and again. Predators, regardless of how good it is, has no good will at all going into it. Inception has tons. Good will trumps title recognition. This alone is enough to state that Inception will gross more from day 1 onward, before even looking at any tracking.

um, Shutter Island made 130m in February against an 80m budget. That's extremely good. Inception has far more agressive marketing, the same leading star, a more action focused concept, a much bigger budget, and opens on a prime date in summer.

Exactly. If they don't know how to behave, and feel OK offending others, they get their ass kicked, so they'll think next time before opening their rotten mouths.

An even better quality trailer of this in redband.. This will OWN INCEPTION.. I'm gonna love the threads wondering what the fuck went wrong with INCEPTION when it doesn't do as well as many of you think and just because it has Nolan attached to it to..

Trouble with your philosophy is that many people don't give a shit about "Good Will" trumping "Title Recognition" cause the so called "Good Will" portion in the form of INCEPTION isn't a summer grabber while "Title Recognition" in the form of PREDATORS and being a Reboot has more appeal to it.. This new reband trailer for PREDATORS is better than anything INCEPTION has showed us in the TV Spots.. Again, if it were any other Director but Nolan, you folks wouldn't care and you know it.. :funny:

Here's a Gallery of Pics.. Fucking looks AWESOME!! WB Should push Nolan's movie back to the Fall where it might be better received cause it's not a Summer film like PREDATORS is..

I... don't see that happening. AVP was able to grab $38 million in 3 days back in August 2004, but that was rated PG-13 and also appealed to the seemingly larger Alien fanbase. When AVPR was released in December of 2007, it was rated R and managed to gross roughly $27 million... in 6 days.

Predators, like the first two Predator movies, will likely be rated R. It will also not appeal as much to the Alien fanbase, since, well, there is no Alien. But the Predator franchise certainly has its own strong franchise, and the July release date should help, so I'm sure Predators will be able to grab $20-25m on OW. Hell, upper $20m range wouldn't surprise me. But that's hardly a threat to the $40-60m which Inception is likely to grab in its OW.

My current predictions for these two films:
Predators - $25m OW / $80m total
Inception - $50m OW / $175m total

this could get interesting as we approach the release date. If you want BKB around, you should let him be at his worst. I am sure he will blame heath ledger for this one as well.

What Söze said! Also, has anyone checked lately the health of Levitt, Murphy, Watanabe, Page or Caine?
