There are still 90M shorts on AVNGR. It's gone up. Some brave souls. {nm} May 07, 07:43
Have you noticed that The Avengers has been understimated at every turn? {nm} May 07, 07:51
Yeah, the Best Picture Oscar is probably in the bag. {nm} May 07, 07:53
Oh, I'm sorry, I thought we were talking box office figures and not nominoptions. Please carry on then. {nm} May 07, 07:54
Would you consider Dark Knight to be a shallow, spectacle-laden film? {nm} May 07, 08:04
No. I believe it transcended its genre to substantial degree, thanks in large part to Heath Ledger. {nm} May 07, 08:16
You do realize Joss Whedon didn't direct Buffy the Vampire Slayer, don't you? Not that it matters. May 07, 08:43
The difference here is that The Avengers is quite entertaining good action/comedy movie likely to have good legs. {nm} May 07, 08:08
Though I don't think using its quality as an argument here, I'm in flippers' team. At least in short tearm. {nm} May 07, 08:09
Which Transformers should I see? The one with 57% fresh, 35%, or 20% fresh on RT? Avengers holding at a paltry 93% fresh, BTW. May 07, 08:13
Oh, I didn't bother with the viewwer's %, just the critics. Fanboys & fangirls skew things too much. May 07, 08:35
Ooh! A cherry-picked bad review, one that coincides with your opinion. Most critics (and viewers) disagree with you. May 07, 10:30
His comment is about how huge openers do post adjust historically...and the lack of research done by the poster May 07, 08:17
Really?! Do you think that any research could have predicted the AVNGR performance? May 07, 08:36
Once again....made NO CALL either way of how its going to do...just giving perspective with actual facts May 07, 08:39
Only $8M for TLKAM. {nm} May 07, 08:47
Yes...and that's 33-60% higher than your EMPHATIC prediction May 07, 08:54
I said $5M-$6M, so it's more like 25%-36% better. Still won't make the $90M delist that it was at last week. ;-) {nm} May 07, 09:15
DRKSH seems like a descent enough movie, but there's AVNGR has too much momentum. May 07, 08:10
Especially Fund Managers, wouldn't you say :) ? Three funds I found long on AVNGR yesterday have all flipped. {nm} May 07, 08:03
I don't find it unreasonable to think that it won't make the 2.7 multiplier with such a big opening. {nm} May 07, 08:06
Given the competition this week, it's not unreasonable to think that it would have another > $100M weekend. May 07, 08:16
yeah, I personally would give it 50/50 on making the multiplier, no conviction either way... {nm} May 07, 08:21
Delists: BATM2 $430/Avatar $430/HPOT8 $343/LRDL3 $312/Titanic $42. {nm} May 07, 08:39
Again, AVNGR has been underestimated, even for the adjust. The total domestic gross is $207.1M May 07, 08:52
You can't even compare Avengers to HGAME? May 07, 09:08
That's post flip. During halt, there were only about 13.918 (you know, just "about") million shares shorted. {nm} May 07, 10:45
