Man of Steel Box Office Prediction Thread - - Part 11

[BH/HHH]

LOL "only" 115m more is quite fun, dude. Please.

The point is that WB wanted to greenlit a SR sequel at the end of the summer, the box office wa at least decent, but the movie failed even to become a hit even in the home entertainment market and a sequel would have been too risky.

I'm sure that far more people will buy MOS on dvd and blue ray.

I think it'll be huge on DVD/Blu Ray

 

[Stephen K. Hone]

$305M is the highest it hits now.

It will be $270M by Sunday. They will get it to $300M. They have the juice to do so after its third weekend recovery.

I think I agree with you. The other day I was going to post that $305-310 million seems to be where it will end up and probably high $400's OS. WB will undoubtedly be happy with combined total and I think there is a chance it'll do just as well as IM3 when they are released to DVD/Bluray.

 

[BH/HHH]

What's it at worldwide right now?

 

[Stephen K. Hone]

Well I hope it's announced soon and that we get one. Idk how much MOS will end up with at the end of its run but I can't see it getting too much more than it has right now (re: won't reach 700).

We'll be sure to remind you of that little prediction when it crosses $700 million. Once it opens in Brazil we will have a better sense of what the ultimate WW BO will be after that. Also if it crosses $600 million or comes close early next week you might be rethinking your #'s.

Honestly for some of the reasons i mentioned earlier $300 million domestic will be more important than 700m ww if only one of those targets can be reached.

 

[FilmNerdJamie]

It's not important. They got what they wanted/needed. They're very happy with the grosses here and overseas.

 

[X Knight]

well, I'm happy if this just reaches $270m, so reaching $300m would just be icing on the cake!! t:

Read this doubters if anyone knows its this guy

Of course their happy but $300m domestic is considered one of those blockbuster milestones so i'm sure they'd make a big deal if MoS did reach it. MoS breaking June's OW was pretty highly publicized.

They didn't release a press release for nothing lol.
Yes, quite pleased
I wonder when a date will be announced for the sequel.
Didn't you say on Twitter you thought WB could make an announcement right before the start of Comic Con ?

The beautiful part of this all is that by the end of it's run MoS will have made over 3/4th domestically what SR made worldwide.

The foreign numbers are just a nice bonus.

 

[BH/HHH]

There's gotta be something at Comic Con surely? Unless Robinov leaving delays any announcements

 

[dalonewolf]

as long as it hits 300 dom it will still prove the haters wrong

 

[BH/HHH]

It's just strange how some people think its flopping and that some wanted it too. It's all bizarre really.

 

[Liam_H]

Kind of silly to see it that way.

 

[BH/HHH]

What way?

If I know well the WB they will wait for the 300m mark.

 

[BH/HHH]

If I know well the WB they will wait for the 300m mark.

Yeah maybe probably be a good time to do that

 

[writer0327]

Are there still people doubting a sequel?

I guess I can understand the nervousness until there is something officially announced, but I truly believe the sequel was going to go ahead regardless of the box office numbers provided they weren't horrible.

 

[Liam_H]

What way?

Wasn't referring to your post but the one above.

Yeah definite nervousness I'd say although there's those that don't want a sequel from what I'm reading.

what's it at worldwide right now?

$531,476,000

 

[BH/HHH]

$531,476,000

Thank you

 

[chamber-music]

WB is looking at Man Of Steel as a whole. I think the Box Office, Promotional tie-in money, merchandise sales and DVD/Blu-Ray Sales will overall be viewed as a worthwhile investment by Warner Bros.

That's without any OS #'s since last Sunday. Just adding the domestic since Monday.
