Man of Steel Box Office Prediction Thread - Part 10

[JangoNate]

Anyone know the predictions for Monday?

I'd like to know this, too. And way to get us back on topic.

 

[Princess Denise]

The Lone Ranger at 28% on RT. It was speculated in here how important RT rating could be for certain people in determining whether or not they will see a movie. Curious to see if this has any effect for this film or this kind of film with Depp is critic proof.

Normally I would say Johnny Depp is critic proof, but LR is not tracking well and is not even in the top five of Fandango's advance ticket sales (ouch!). The bad reviews may just may help drive audiences to other options.

Yeah hopefully it drives them back to see MoS

Absolute range is around $2.55-3.82M. Most likely around $3.1-3.5M

 

[Mysteryman]

I too saw "good ol' summer fun" in the advertisings and was hoping for a popcorn munching action adventure, but apparently its way too long, too dry, too dreary and tiresome. Looks like the POTC crew bombed on this one.

I will watch it and decide for myself,
Critics be damned.

And so you should. I wouldn't be so in love with MOS if the reviews had deterred me.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

I'm so excited to watch The Long Ranger tomorrow.

 

[MrMaooz]

I'm so excited to watch The Long Ranger tomorrow.

The Long Ranger was a kickass movie.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

The Long Ranger was a kickass movie.

Now I really can't wait to watch this "epic fun ride" where William Fitchner is the scene-stealer and 2 1/2 hours in length.

Hmm yeah William "The Shredder" Fichtner

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Hmm yeah William "The Shredder" Fichtner

MICHAEL BAY!

So what are the predictions for Monday's numbers? I did my part today by seeing it for a 5th time. Hopefully many others across the country did too.

 

[LostSon88]

Don't you mean, "Eric Sachs"?

(yes. That is the Shredders real name in the movie. Its not Oroku Saki.)

 

[TheNextNolan22]

At the moment, I think the numbers are $3.5 million.

 

[113]

At the moment, I think the numbers are $3.5 million.

That would be incredible. That means it's holding up quite well t:

 

[Marvin]

Hmm yeah William "The Shredder" Fichtner

Bane was very much a Hispanic character before he was an odd talking Brit.
If Fichtner is a strong actor with a strong presence...ah never mind.

 

[Knightstalker]

Don't you mean, "Eric Sachs"?

(yes. That is the Shredders real name in the movie. Its not Oroku Saki.)

Are you serious? If so,

 

[Project862006]

so

it be far more racist if they kept the name lol

do fitchner look like a man named oroku

 

[Princess Denise]

LR is now #3 for Fandango's advance ticket sales.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

LR is now #3 for Fandango's advance ticket sales.

Yay.

 

[Bruce Malone]

I think the difference in impact between LR's reviews and MoS's (besides MoS's not being as bad), is that a lot of people already had a lot of preconceived notions that the lone ranger would be a stinker while for MoS there was a lot of hope or assumption it would be a good film, so the negative reviews were probably easier to shrug off.

With the bad reviews some of the audiences are likely assuming their first notions were correct then.

 

[Cantis1]

That would be incredible. That means it's holding up quite well t:

Really hoping it can pull in another $20 million from Monday to Friday, with the holiday in there!

 

[Knightstalker]

Really hoping it can pull in another $20 million from Monday to Friday, with the holiday in there!

If the Monday total is correct, then 20 million mon-fri is easily doable

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Hell, it could even do a little more than that.

 

[LostSon88]

Are you serious? If so,

Yup. He said so himself in an interview.

so

it be far more racist if they kept the name lol

do fitchner look like a man named oroku

He looks more like a Billy Bob to me, but whatever...
