Kind of what I was talking about with the whole "nastiness" thing. Good job, Magnus.

Dark of the Moon's 3D share of the gross continued to be 60 percent at a record 2,789 3D locations. Also Cars 2 3D share fell to around 35 percent.

BKB is the only poster with rep.

Convenient that the 3D share is still reported at 60% when the industry standard being sought after is exactly that.

Fishy.

I disagree completely. At least for me, I'm not being a debbie-downer-I'm making an educated guess based historical precedence and other factors. As box office predictors, that's kind of what we do. Most blockbuster movies are making 13-20% of their gross on their first day, so if a film disappoints on OD, it's not knee jerk irrationality to think it'll continue to disappointment. Sometimes we're wrong, like in the case of IJ4 and now TF3, but more often than not those are simply the exceptions.

And I don't mean to rag on you, but as much as you get frustrated by the perceived negativity, I get annoyed by the "wait and see" proclamation. This forum lives and dies by discussion, as long as it remains civil.

Well, I still like Libs. But then I'm also bitter with most people here, so.

I like Libs too.

Libs is cool in general, but she should maybe cool it with all the, "Be positive! Come on! No arguments! So dark! It's a sickness!" stuff.

Darkside Libs would be pretty weird though. I don't think anybody wants that.

She needn't jump into every thread/argument with the same plea/rant, though.

Of course she does, she's KJ's mom.

What the hell are you talking about? Rev is one of the only people that predicted over $250 mil 6-day. $175+ mil is NOT weak. And it will NOT have "a hard time" beating the original.

Thing is though, from my perspective, calling Transformers 3 DOA is actually more optimism than negativity. Premature either way, sure, but the idea was strangely heartwarming if anything.

thats very sad for cars 2 but i have a felling that we might see it make over 15 million today and 11 for sunday, but that would still be very bad for pixar.

Cars 2= pixar's first box office and critical failure

Brave=maybe one of their best films but well be another box office failure if its in 3D, pixar might look at how cars 2 3D percentage is low and dont make Brave in 3D, plus i believe 3D begun to die lats year when Clash of the titans came out

fuck lib I hate her she wont e my friend on facbrook

Agreed.

Cars may not even pass $25M for the 3-day if it plays out like the family films in 2005, the last time the 4th fell on a Monday.

It'll probably be something like...

Friday- $7,871,000
Saturday- $8,618,745 (+9.5%)
Sunday- $7,196,652 (-16.5%)
Monday- $5,253,556 (-27%)

3-day- $23,686,397 (-64.19%)
4-day- $28,939,953 (-56.24%)
