Lets take a look at total multiples for "Marvel new character solo films" Apr 06, 13:23
Thanks for this. I'm sorry you had to do it, but find it valuable in it's own right. {nm} Apr 06, 13:59
It's still pacing nicely ahead of Hunger Games that it could make it to 400M. {nm} Apr 06, 14:37
Don't see it beating HG's final gross of 408. Doesn't have the same legs. {nm} Apr 06, 15:38
Their opening weekends were just 1M apart. As of Thursday CM is 19M ahead. Apr 06, 16:11
Endgame is giving it a boost. Its general audience number increased from week 1 to week 2 so non fans are catching up Apr 06, 16:37
Really its 19m ahead and is still neck and neck on a daily basis against stronger competition. {nm} Apr 06, 18:14
"The lower your opening weekend, the easier it is to hit a 3 multiple." {nm} Apr 06, 15:42
I get that.. but we're talking CM being at GS and DD levels here. That doesn't scream strength to me. {nm} Apr 06, 15:46
Captain Marvel has more than doubled the combined worldwide grosses of GR and DD. Apr 06, 16:45
Combined, those two only grossed ~407.92 WW - which CMARV could hit domestically. {nm} Apr 06, 15:48
We're talking the film mulitples, not the overall gross. {nm} Apr 06, 15:50
What matters is how you finish, not how you start. Don't see CM beating HG #'s overall {nm} Apr 06, 16:00
You're spreading misinformation again. Captain Marvel's total multiple will be within 5% of Hunger Games. Apr 06, 16:23
Within 5 percent? So it'd be a lower multiple, you're saying? {nm} Apr 06, 16:48
aside from all this, how are you doing these days? staying well i hope! {nm} Apr 06, 16:38
Ha, yes thanks. Enjoying your analysis here ... ~400m = a wonderful result. Best wishes from the antipodes! {nm} Apr 06, 16:55
thats great to hear! And thanks! although its less an analysis and more a reality check {nm} Apr 06, 17:03
Actually Studios would rather have a 400m film with a 150 opening then one with a 100m opening Apr 07, 08:50
thats not true anymore. Most films dont use a rolling film rental anymore {nm} Apr 07, 08:53
Of course as you ignore the facts and make things up to fit your narrow view. It will pass HG. {nm} Apr 07, 08:52
Great discussion board. Really enjoying the data. So what we have -- (full take inside). Apr 06, 17:19
Are you a cherry picker for a living? Apr 06, 18:41
At this point you are just being ignorant or a troll. Probably both. HSX is a site for people who love movies, Apr 06, 18:50
Your entire argument that it's not a success is based on a single point - its multiplier compared to other first outings Apr 07, 05:04
There was an Elektra movie?! {nm} Apr 08, 09:15
