Man of Steel Box Office Prediction Thread - Part 5

[TheNextNolan22]

Busy week, indeed.

 

[sf2]

I thought saturday will make more?

 

[Herolee10]

i think 350 is looking likely now.

Considering MOS's budget, is that a good thing or a bad thing?lol

A bad thing.

 

[Anita18]

Yeesh, y'alls have high expectations. Everyone on the box office forums are like WOOOO!

 

[Herolee10]

A bad thing.

 

[Sup3rman81]

I have no idea where you are getting your numbers, but they are not from any box office site.

from the BoT forums, WWZ is projected at 22M Friday and 57M for the weekend, which if that holds MoS will be in 3rd place. MU is currently tracking for 32.5M and 80M weekend.

You got your numbers from a forum? I seriously doubt WWZ does 57m. It aint happening and you can book it.

 

[Sup3rman81]

A bad thing.

Lol 350m Domestic is not a bad thing. Where do you come off thinking that? WB would love to see MOS make 350m

 

[Sabaoth]

A bad thing.

I assume you and the poster you are responding to are just kidding.
I think 350 domestic is highly unlikely but 300-315 is realistic.
275 + domestic would be a good thing (and pretty much guaranteed ), 300+ would be very nice.
Also, around 50 mil for this weekend is expected and would be great.
Also note that by Sunday, Man of Steel will be blowing past the total domestic gross of Superman Returns.

It was just a joke.

Oh you....

Even if it makes 47 million this weekend it is still getting a sequel.
And the Fourth of July weekend will help it too.

Now that RTH has some more solid numbers, it looks like it will do exactly as expected, which is good. However people vastly under predicted WWZ, which I had a gut feeling would be a big hit, and it looks exactly like that.

All and all, I don't think June has seen a weekend this busy in a long, long time.

Based on everything I've read I think the film will end up topping out around my prediction. I'm thinking it will probably do in the region of $300m in the US & I'd expect a similar, if not higher foreign income. Based on it's current course if word on foreign market is accurate, it will probably top out somewhere between $600m - $700m.

Have to see if WWZ dents it's foreign market income.

So.....$45 million?

 

[Notrip]

Man of Steel will make 45-50 million. based on the 14-16 RTH number. Good for 3rd this weekend. WWZ looking like 57-60 million and MU 80+. WWZ could have a huge dive, so it is still up in the air on what its final number is.

 

[Liam_H]

With Rth's range I think that would put the weekend around $46-52 milllion. So right in line with a 55-60% drop.

With these kind of numbers this should be the biggest June weekend ever since...last week.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

That's actually pretty good.

 

[Notrip]

Yes, very good considering two big movies opening this weekend.

 

[Liam_H]

Also if MoS can make it, first weekend ever with 3 movies above $50 million.

 

[Notrip]

I bet MOS falls just short of 50.

 

[rayc1971]

i knew monsters u would do 80 mill this weekend but no way in hell I thought wwz would do 60mill this weekend I had it hat 40 to 45mill.so now mos will top out at 300mill domestic wich is still good.too many people in here were getting carried away with mos doing 400mill domestic with its 225mill budget 300mill is acceptable for a sequel

 

[Marvin]

Also if MoS can make it, first weekend ever with 3 movies above $50 million.

Just thinking of all the business MoS could have had.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

I still wish MOS got Pacific Rim's date, but MOS is doing great business so far.
