X3 Box Office Tracker

[liamoversion2]

Wasn't talking about TV.

.... yeah... I got that. I was making a joke...

 

[crappymovie]

I said it wouldn't make it to 250 and you pretty much called me out on that, and now you won't even good-naturedly fess up that you were wrong?

So your style is basically to throw around bravado statements, and then when they turn out to be incorrect you just shrug and say "So?". What exactly is the point of even engaging you in friendly debate then?

Agreed.

 

[GL's Light]

Ok. If it makes you feel better, and satisifies some ego trip. I was wroung. And I repeat so ?

Oh, please. It's not about an ego trip. It's about staying true to the terms of friendly debate (although I'm starting to think there's not really any friendliness in your debating).

Meh. We're on different wavelengths on this. If X3 had hit 250 you would've gotten a good-natured "I was wrong" from me. But evidently that's just not your style.

I wouldn't need an I was wroung from you. I know you were and that's what matters. No need to broadcast it for all to see. I never admit I'm wroung, except to my wife, and kids. Everybody else ? Meh. Only people on an ego trip, need or want an apoligy. When I'm right, I know it, and that's all I need.

 

[danoyse]

No that's not actually true at all. Watching too much TV doesn't make you go blind?!

Not that I watch tv really... it's mostly bullcrap anyway... so I'm safe...

That's just something parents say to keep their kids from sitting too close to the TV.

Fox International's X-Men: The Last Stand was a fraction behind Da Vinci Code in the weekend stakes. According to early estimates it added $14.9m on approximately 6,500 screens for a $182.5m international tally. The fantasy adventure opened top in South Korea on an excellent $5.9m haul on 353 screens that produced Fox's biggest ever opening in the market. It also opened at number one in Taiwan on $1.4m on 166, and added $1.4m on 455 screens in the UK for $32m.

I am happy the movie opened #1 in south korea and it is a POWERFUL opening weekend.

MUCH MUCH BETTER than X1 and X2.

There is NO doubt X3 will do between $10-15 million in South Korea.

I've updated my #'s to reflect that 182.5 million overseas.

 

[phantom47]

WOW it made 1.4 in Tawain when X2 made 1.3 overall there. while in sSouth Korea it made 6 mil while X2 did 7.3 overall

 

[borinquenknight]

I believe he DID face the same if not worse constrains
more pressure, bigger movie, less time

Sorry but I can't agree with you on this one. There is a huge difference between creating a successful franchise and destroying it. Atleast IMO, Singer did more with less money and too many variables even though he might've had a bit more time. But most of the resources or lack there of can be attributed to Fox. What we can hold to the directors is what they did with what they had. I think in this rational Singer came out on top. But then again I can't say that Singer would've continued well enough if he'd taken a Brett-established franchise forward.

 

[Advanced Dark]

...and we still have Japan and all the holdovers till September. LOL

 

[phantom47]

Im hoping for 225-235 International after Japan and 235 Dom. with a 450+ WW

 

[Advanced Dark]

Well at 200 international now it depends on how the holdovers go before Japan. I think Japan is 22 million easy. So can X3 make another 10-20 million international before Japan? I think so.

Seems to be that you're the only one on an ego trip when you can't admit you're wrong in a debate.

 

[Advanced Dark]

C'mon children stop fighting or you'll go to detention! Here's a blurb from Yahoo Canada:

Finishing a close No. 2 this weekend was 20th Century Fox International's "X-Men: The Last Stand," which compiled $14.9 million from 6,500 screens in 62 territories for an overseas total of $182.5 million.

"X3" opened gangbusters in Korea, where it was a huge No. 1, generating $5.9 million -- about 55 percent of the market -- from 363 screens (making it the biggest Fox opening ever in the market). In Taiwan, it pulled nearly an average of $8,500 per screen from 166 sites for an estimated $1.4 million. With the same gross estimate, "X3" finished No. 2 in the U.K. playing 455 sites.

 

[Loganbabe]

Here in Brazil I think it was a nice surprise how X3 managed to stay on the top position of the box office for 3 weeks on a row, seeing how Da Vinci Code is a very popular book here. I don´t know if it has to do with the reviews...the reviews for X3 were in general very good here, and rather bad for DVC.

an ego is not being able to admitt that you were wrong to anyone you were wrong too. if i am wrong and i am, often... i have no issue apologizing to anyone i tried to "man handle" with my opinion. Now if it is an issue of different opinions and not cold hard facts... you better bring the facts cause we gonna dance. But when it is cold hard facts and numbers... i enjoy being right as much as wrong and have no issue taking a knee before the better insight than my own. With every word you type you are just merely backing up what he is saying about you.

You only admitt you are wrong to your wife and kids? sounds like a name drop to try to shove in an "age dominance" to me. Like you are married and have a kid and that makes you mature. Then after trying to state such maturity you play a whole game of lame rhetoric of "A or B LOGIC". One of the most used rhetorical tools for verbal and language manipulation over others. Politicians use it alot. "Either you support the war on terror or you are not a patriot." Which is not true. Just like your statement "Only people on an ego trip, need or want an apoligy" is ******ed and just not true. but you want to assert it as it was true. Try to show dominance. The truth is, that in a debate of any sort... there first has to be a respect for the truth. Knowing that who ever is right or wrong doesnt matter, as long as you both come to a revelation of the truth then you both win. But with out a respect for the truth... why argue? why debate? and you seemingly show very little respect for the truth when you make comments like that one.

 

[Carp Man]

Everyones entitled to their opinion. However, I shall continue to pontificate.

 

[Angry Sentinel]

Edit...
and when he dies in x3, no one cares, including me.

I wouldn't say "nobody"... I cared, well before it happened, although for months I was told how WRONG I was about that as well... and nobody has admitted to that one either!

I would concede that the Singer-Cyke treatment was the instigator to what happened in X3, except for the fact that his commentary in X2 and supposed treatment for X3 & X4 was to heavily favor Cyclops. I believe that X3 shows us who truly had it in for Cyke/Mardsen, where as the supposed Mardsen-hating Singer readily accepts him in his Superman movie.

Oh you are talking rubbish.

There wasn't a great deal of Cyclops in X2, with Singer at the helm. Cyclops wasn't in X3 because FOX didn't want him in it much. Nothing to do with the lack of Singer, but rather Marsden going over to Superman Returns.

Logan was always the main character, so that's due to the lack of Singer.

Leaderless Storm? She was more a leader in this movie than she was in the prior films, with Singer.

Your points make no sense.

First, I'm not totally defending Singer, nor am I his greatest fan. I'm just pointing out the state of the characters as X3 portrayed them. Any 'REASONS' you give for this doesn't change the fact that this is EXACTLY what happened in this movie, a movie done WITHOUT Singer.

Secondly, since you want to bring up reasons...

-You conveniently leave out the great deal of Cyclops in X1 and the fact that even without him in X2, Singers movie WENT OUT OF IT'S way to make it clear who JEAN chose. The movie didn't need the line, but it did it anyway.

- Logan was the focal point character in TWO movies that had a great deal to do with his BACKGROUND... what was the reason for his UBBERNESS in X3? Especially since he practically stole the role (and mannerisms... more things the supposed Cyclops-hating Singer never did)of the character they so conveniently killed!

- Storm was a leader in X3??? Please illustrate your examples. And considering Cyclops was there in X1, at least Singer has the excuse of already having someone to fill that role... Where is X3's reasons?

- Debatable...

On top of that...every non-comics fan I know who's seen X3 was really happy for Rogue at the end of the movie.

See my first comment to Avalanche...

 

[Carp Man]

X2 did 407 million in worldwide sales. If all the weekend estimated #'s hold true, X3 is real close. Bout 9 million shy.

sunday X3 was #5. Did $2.6 million. PRETTY GOOD.

Cars did much better than expected. I think Cars did well, X3 and Nacho did great.

Don't worry guys i think X3 will do just fine. I think it dropped between 50-52% this weekend.

 

[Milkman95]

Actually 55.5% to be exact.

wow...it moved up past garfield and break up...not bad...but technically the movies are dropping and X3 isn't moving up

Those are estimates NOT Actual boxoffice.

With the actual boxoffice it probably dropped 50-52%.

The SBD numbers are the actual sunday numbers.

The sunday estimate for CARS at BOM is $9 million but it actually made $11 million according to SBD.

Similarly BOM says $2.185 for X3 but SBD says $2.635 million.

When the actuals come out it will probably be MORE than 55.5% and closer to 60%.
