If this does 200 Million WW this better get a sequel.

Oh, it is a lock for $200 million worldwide...I am talking $200+ million overseas alone as a possibility.

Well that would be really impressive.

$4.8m/$110.4m

I don't thin $200m OS will happen with Jack and Oz releasing soon still $150m OS seems achievable. I think they should consider a sequel.

$15.2m/$127.2m

I really think it has a fighting shot to hit $200 million overseas, which would be absolutely terrific. The very minimum I see for it is $170 million OS and $225 million worldwide.

That's a really good hold in face of Jack. $200m OS might not happen but it is crossing $200m WW for sure now. That is quite good for this kind of movie.

It's off to an awesome start in Germany: http://www.boxofficemojo.com/intl/germa ... =09&p=.htm

Is headed for 200+ WW. Come on sequel!!! Could be a consistent franchise like Resident Evil or Underworld. I bet a sequel would only grow overseas.

I would love, love, love to see a sequel. I am not sure Jeremy Renner is at a place in his career, though, where he will move ahead with a modest, safe action-horror franchise.

If, in a couple years or so he's not that big, maybe he'll be in a place where he'd agree to one.

Replace him. He's nothing special anyway.

Yeah I don't mind replacing Renner from this franchise. It might loose some of its steam initially but you can get some other low-budgeted action star anyways.

Most reviews say he's one of the worst parts of the movie anyway because of his lack of charisma and noticeable disinterest at times.

Possible replacements the studio would probably consider:

Sam Worthington
Ryan Reynolds (could work given the comedic nature of the first film)

Ryan Reynolds could be an excellent choice IMO. He should be doing more stuffs like these than the god awful Green Lantern.

I hate when they switch actors. I wouldn't even want a sequel if they did. That's just too distracting.

Renner was terrible in the first one anyway.

I enjoyed him in it. I liked both him and Arterton in it. Regardless I just hate to see significant characters played by new actors in movies or on shows.

See my syndication thread in the TV forum for an extreme example, heh.

I too agree that I hate seeing sequels with different actors though I would still like to have a sequel rather than not having one because an actor cannot return.

$142,500,000

$3 million away from hitting $200 million worldwide.

Looks like this will end pretty close to DH5 in domestic as well as WW total. Who would have thought ?

$6.2m/$151.2m

It's over 205 Million WW.

So I guess this wasn't totally off.
