Movies

You realize that tracking has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of a movie, right?

Posted by: diamondman56 on Jul 14, 11:05 in response to TwoMisfits' post This is not too high if it's good - see my post yesterday...

But it has everything to do with awareness and interest... people are polled and either they've heard about the movie or not and are interested in the movie or not... but it's getting less accurate. I'd trust BoxOffice's Twitter/Social Media analysis more at this point.

...does that seem...high? And like, maybe someone is? (I haven't a clue really) {nm} CSBD Jul 14, 09:22

Is this the real life is this a fantasy! {nm} b4bad Jul 14, 09:23

Caught in a landslide - no escape to reality. {nm} Freddie Jul 14, 09:42

No, it's less than the Fri-Sun of DEADP. {nm} Antibody Jul 14, 09:26

A tad high, but I'm looking forward to it too! Which means--I think the zeitgeist is there too. The marketing was a success. chosenone2oo5 Jul 14, 11:22

Some AMC theaters put up tickets for sale yesterday, and it has already sold more than Ghostbusters, Trek or Bourne at those locations reelreptile Jul 14, 09:26

Yes, but it does have to do with quality of previews and fan reactions from same TwoMisfits Jul 14, 11:34

Lobogotti - we got a double or nothing to settle...you want $125M & under on SUICD? MrZero Jul 14, 09:48

well, Suicide was my #3 entry for the year in teals contest. I had it pegged for $325-350M domestic gross. $125M tracking lobogotti Jul 14, 10:35

Yeah, SUICD is my #1 on Teal's, so we're both high on it...alternates inside? MrZero Jul 14, 11:21

I'll take Pete under $30M for me and over $40M you? {nm} lobogotti Jul 14, 11:33

Done, sir. Good luck! {nm} MrZero Jul 14, 11:37

you as well! {nm} lobogotti Jul 14, 11:38

Don't do it. Worst two weeks of my life. {nm} diamondman56 Jul 14, 10:54

really, the worst ever? I didn't rub anything in your face when it was over. I even offered to let you out of the bet. {nm} lobogotti Jul 14, 10:57

Or... he's joking. {nm} RogerMore Jul 14, 11:41

Yeah, man... you really need to work on your sense of humor. {nm} diamondman56 Jul 14, 13:05

DL: opening weekend projections ranging from $125M to $140M. Antibody Jul 14, 11:28

135 I think makes it odd on to top BvS in total domestic take. That would be quite the switch MattW Jul 14, 11:38

Joker + Harley may very well be a bigger draw than Batman. {nm} MrZero Jul 14, 12:17

+1! Remember, the highest grossing Batman films domestically (minus "The Dark Knight Rises") feature THE JOKER as the villain. {nm} chosenone2oo5 Jul 15, 00:12
