[miggizle85]

$200 opeining!!! WTF are you smoking.

You'll see...

[explode7]

Well we still aren't sure if TIH will beat TDK because TDK hasn't come out yet.

 

[miggizle85]

miggizle...i respect your opinion but...wall e making a billion all together and dark knight making 200 million ow is insane

I know it sounds crazy man. Believe me I know it does. I said you guys would call me crazy and I understand why. Just give me 3 months though. Give me 3 months. I'll come back and check-in at the end of August. Then you guys can laugh at me for grossly over-estimating those two movies. But maybe, just maybe, I'm right and I'll look like a genius.

Two LOLs for the day:

LOL @ the guy with the $200 million OW prediction, and the $400 million domestic take for Wall-E.

LOL @ holding out hope that Hulk will beat TDK even after this decent-at-best $54 million OW.

 

[Stupify_me]

lol I know what you mean
I thought the movie was good they should of waited a month or two to finish up the CGI work cause there where moments that it looked bleh and they should of gotten a better betty imo

Meh I like Liv and thought she did a good job.

Pretty respectable predictions, though I think your Hulk number (now with the OW figures out) is a bit high.

But, it'll be a photo finish race between TDK, Iron Man, and Indy.

Yeah, but we all can tell TDK is going to beat TIH. TIH just made $54 millions in 3 days & $21 millions in one day, when Hulk made $24 millions in 1 day. That is not a good sign for TIH. With more competition coming next week with "Get Smart" & others, I doubt TIH is going to make $200 millions. Or it could get there, but barely. TDK won't be facing competition like TIH or IM or Indy 4, so it will make healthy money at the box office.

Whats the metter with it?

Yeah, ok how about 150 million for TIH then?

 

[Cmill216]

Yeah, ok how about 150 million for TIH then?

That's probably about right. But it'll probably crawl to it.

sounds good CB

 

[gwynplaine]

I don't think Hulk will be smashing records. On the other hand, I really hope that the Knight slays its competition, like St Georges with the dragon.

 

[Pfeiffer-Pfan]

We aren't psychics (...really explode7)... so there is no point in trying to guess down to exact numbers.

In saying that, 'The Dark Knight' has everything going for it. I won't repeat the list, but you know what they are. This should, by logic, be one of the biggest movies of the year.

People want to see this movie for whatever reason:

Well we still aren't sure if TIH will beat TDK because TDK hasn't come out yet.

All right this is just getting sad
TDK has the most hype out of any movie this year in fact out of every list in movie sites TDK either was the most hyped or 2nd behind Indy

now that says alot not to mention the fact that this movie has been hyped and talked about since last year

the moment the first Joker pic showed up to December This movie's hype went up and up and up

Then came Heath's death that made this movie a house hold name

Now its not just comic fans action fans bat fans that are going to see it
its Heath fans and friends and family

now here's going to be the huge kick in the boot when actors like Johny Depp Jude Law Colen Farel and so on and so on start to talk about this movie it will only get bigger

Just mentioning the name The Dark Knight gave the MTV croud a huge reaction meaning they all know what it is and there all hyped up as well

This movie has the chance to open up 100 mil to 150 mil domestically then it will live on for weeks cause i dare you to name a bigger movie after the dark knight

its hard isnt it

TDK has the chance to make Spider Man numbers

now that being said you really need to take off your fan goggles and realize just how big TDK can be on potential alone it can rival any of the spidey movies and if the actual movie lives up to what it says it is

then theres nothing stoping it

Hell Iron man is far to over hyped imo
and Hulk has the curse of a bad start and tough competition

 

[kyuubijavi1]

Meh I like Liv and thought she did a good job.

Well i just re watched Iron Man today and honestly I think Hulk was the better of the two I know crazy lol but I guess its just after already knowing all the jokes Iron Man wasnt as great the second time around

TIH won't beat it. Just because TDK hasn't come out yet doesn't mean jack ****.
