Jurassic World - - Part 11

[Marvolo]

Where could they go from here?

Well D'Onofrio's character had another worksite and his men took Wu there so I'm sure this isn't the last we have seen of Wu and his abominations.

Inside Out has it on its ropes, but JW edges IO out in the end. While I like both movies, I was hoping that IO will have a chance to be the #1 movie before Minions come out next week.

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

Inside Out is going to make over 300mil, it doesn't matter if it ever hits number one.

 

[Marvolo]

Besides, Pixar has opened at #1 since 1995. It won't kill them to lose once in a while.

So a few questions I haven't been on hear has much lately. I know the movie made the most money all time in both weeks 1 and 2. What about week 3 did it break that recorded to? Also I heard the movie hasn't came out in Japan yet. How big is japan for movies now days? Like how much money could it make there? I heard the movie is around 1.40 million now and with out Japan yet and with the movie only being out for about 3 weeks I would have to say that 1.6 billion is a lock. But can it get to 2 billion? Has the movie reached 600 USA yet? Is 700 a lock?

 

[spiderman2]

This is how they approached the script of JW. Trevorrow wasn't happy with the original script and Universal moved the film's release date back a whole year so him and Spielberg could rewrite it. If that's how they handle the sequel(s) then they are off to a good start.

Yeah they really took there time with JW 14 years and there where rumors for years and years about a JP4 before JW came out.

Inside Out had the 2nd highest debut EVER for Pixar, and it's on track to be in the top 3 of the studio's highest grossing films to date. They'll be fine, lol.

 

[TX85]

Glad this one is a big hit and still going strong,Deserves to be!

Yep, it's doing great.

This movie is the very definition of a crowd-pleaser. Is not flawless, is not bad either, it just works, it entertains. It has a likeable lead character, it has an island, dinosaurs, action, adventure, a little bit of mystery, and nostalgia all over it. Is the type of film you go to experience, you want to visit the park just like the kids. I can easily understand why is making so much money.

If I like a movie better, then it's a better movie (to me). Sometimes a plot really grabs me and I say "Wow, that was a good movie". Sometimes the fun and likability of the characters (GotG and JW) really grabs me and I say "Wow, that was a good movie". I'm there to be entertained and not to make "objective" assessments of how good a movie is or isn't. When I go to a movie, it's about me, me, me and me .....except when I go with someone I like and want them to enjoy it too.

I think Avatar had the biggest 3rd week (and 4th and 5th and 6th...etc.). That movie had the smallest drops I can remember (except maybe Titanic which seemed like it ran for like 10 years).

I think it'll be pushing 600M domestic (ie US/Canada) by the end of next weekend and will get there sometime during the next week. I'd be surprised if it got more than $700M or less than $650M by the time all is said and done. I'd also like to know how much money Chris Pratt would make if he did an Indy reboot......

IO was determined to try to make me wrong, though. haha t:

Absolutely insane that these two holdovers, after already making bank, have still beaten the newcomers flat. At the very least I thought MMXXL would cut into things but it fell hard.

 

[InCali]

The Universal executives have been hospitalized for suffocating in money.

The Marvel execs are in the next room. They're the ones looking a little green around the gills.

I read that MMXXL's audience was 96% women. If I had known that, I might have gone myself.......

Actually, it scored 30.9 million this weekend. Ever since Ray Saubers left Box Office Mojo, it's been a hot mess. The new guy Keith is incapable of posting the data correctly. He never fails to screw something up when he posts his articles/charts.

But I agree with everything else you said.

I used to love BOM when Ray Subers was doing it. Now I just use it when necessary. There's a link on the home page that says "Fastest to $550 Million" and when you click on it, it gives you the page of the Fastest to 100-500 Million in $50 Million increments. Really annoying. I'm no webpage expert, but at least my links work.

I think someone is intentionally frelling that site up so they can tear it down without people going bat$#!t crazy like they did last time. I wish I knew what happened, but Ray isn't talking. I'm sure some @$$#0le had him sign some sort of confidentiality agreement and maybe made him promise not to bring any competition on line. Wish I knew what happened.......

Oh ok and yeah I heard Titanic was in theaters for a long time. So 700 is most likely not going to happened but it will most likely reach at least 650 so maybe it can reach 675 USA? What about WW what are the changes it makes 2 billion? I wonder how much it has made in china now with that being the second biggest place for movies and with it getting bigger and bigger.

Just looking at the upcoming openings, I'd say that 675 is in play (but tough). That would add about $100 US/Canada and bring things to about 1.5B WW. I don't know about the rest of the world, because box office mojo looks like it's kind of frelled up. If the percentages hold (just under 60% non-US/Canada to about 40% US/Canada), that would add another 250M total WW for about 1.65B, but I can't tell if there are any big openings left. You can't get the same level of info from box office mojo that you used to be able to get.

I'm not an expert, but I think the above is probably ballpark. Who knows? It could run off a bunch of 10-20M weekends during the rest of the summer and surprise us all. There are probably a lot of people out there who really like Chris Pratt and enjoy seeing dinos eat people.

Jurassic World.
Terminator 5.

Two movies tasked with breathing new life into their respective franchises.
One succeeds spectacularly, the other fails miserably.
Oh, also JW doesn't try to erase JP from continuity.

 

[spider-neil]

What a year for Universal Pictures. F7 and JW.
I hope with two major successes they green light some new and original movies. Big blockbusters should pay for more speculative movies.

 

[DarkSovereignty]

Time travel, THATS what this movie was missing,

 

[DyeLorean]

So, in the next one they are in a secret facility, messing with Wu's new creations. The science research team finds a way to actually bring species forward in time, but a group of people accidentally end up in the Jurassic period, for real, along with this new dinosaur-hybrid eggs that could potentially change the course of history and natural evolution?

"Jurassic Era"
Tagline: Who is in the wrong period now?

I totally agree. Remember that Star Wars: A New Hope was once upon a time a "speculative" movie. For that matter, so was Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Those did sort of okay.
