X3 Box Office Tracker

[Carp Man]

I don't think this film is going to surpass X2's total gross by a large margin as some may be thinking.

Well it has 7 million to go to reach X2 worldwide total. It still has to open in Japan and China, there's 25 million from those 2 countrys. Plus more domestic, more overseas before that time. What do you consider a "large margin" ?

X1 to X2 jump...

X1-= Worldwide: $296,250,053
X2-= Worldwide: $407,557,613

About 110 Mill would have been amazing. This franchise was going up, up and ........only to be brought down when it should have been X-Men's version of 'The Return Of The King' in scale, scope, and success.

Oh well.....There will be sequels, DVD sales/rentals will gaurantee that.

BULL SH#T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh really!!

I don't think so buddy u want X3 to drop more than the estimates BUT it won't.

Btw superman and their fans suck balls.

Batman and wolverine do NOT wear underwear in MOVIES. They would look extremely stupid and GAY. They wear in the comics and sometimes in the cartoons.

But Superman does in the movies so he is GAY.

This is the best part, then you say THIS to Lightning:

please check before saying something.

Child, think before speaking.

^ The Superman being gay because he wears his underwear on the outside is by far the best quote. He exhibits such worldly knowledge with his quotes. Wiser than any of us could ever hope to be.

Thankfully, although I like to kiss other boys, I wear my boxers under my jeans, so I'm clearly not gay. It's amazing how where you wear your underwear can change your sexuality.

 

[Carp Man]

Leno commented in his monolog last night about reports about Superman being gay. Batman and Robin have had those questions for years. And now Batwoman is comming out, sooooooooooooo. What's up at DC ?

 

[Carp Man]

Thats some pretty big numbers for Superman to go up against. If it were generating more buzz I would say it would definitely pass X3 but im not sure.

 

[Avalanche]

^

I'm almost certain Superman will pass X3 in both the domestic and internation box office. Not sure if it will have a larger opening weekend, but I think it will go on to be financially more successful, and a better received film in general.

I expect myself to enjoy Superman Returns more than X3, which is something I'd never had thought a few months back.

 

[CapBeerCino]

X3 has already done $398 worldwide. So i am very sure the movie will surpass X2 worldwide without any doubt.

It better surpass x-3 with a $100 cause that's the budget difference between the two.

 

[Amm-arD]

well considering the figures X3 gross will easily surpass x2's gross, even before the DVD's are sold!

DVDs aren't included in X2's gross are they?

The X2 DVD made a lot of money from what I can remember. It was a very large selling DVD.

Xmen aint a strong franchise. It is a loser compared to spider-man so forget it.

Xmen movies open big then get mediocre legs PERIOD.

expect the same from X3.

X3 budget is $165 million +$90 million in worldwide marketing and distribution.

It will break even with worldwide boxoffice and then make tons on DVD sales and rentals.

hahahahahaha

check the link-
http://www.leesmovieinfo.net/Video-Sales.php?y=2003&type=3

X2 was released on nov. 25 and by the end of the year sold 5.30 million units ($92.40 million) after that it might have sold another 1-2 million copies that is it.

so it made no where close to the money it made in boxoffice on DVD sales.

 

[Lightning Strykez!]

please check before saying something.

Excuse me?

Considering the content of your posts lately it is you who needs to check themselves before typing anything.

I suggest you settle down.

You forget rental revenue, international rental and sales too. That's not tracked online.

 

[TheVileOne]

X-men 3 could've made a hell of a lot more money if it wasn't such a rushed, hacked up disappointment.

That's a fact.

There's a reason X-men 2 was so much more successful than the first movie.

X-men 3's money is about on par with X-2 if you think about adjusted grosses. It's really not that impressive considering the budget was twice as big as the second movie.

Summer 2006: 'Pirates' Likely to Squash the Competition
The top prize this summer may end up going to Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest. The epic production has potential to earn upwards of $100 million for three days, and maybe even $400 or more domestically (which would put it in direct competition with Shrek 2). The original opened to $46.6 million in three days and $70.6 million in five; and with the help of tremendous word of mouth, the film finished with $305.4 million domestically – a staggering 6.5% multiplier. The film was also a phenomenon on DVD.

Superman Returns could take second place. Bryan Singer, who previously worked on X2, is behind this remake and was able to lead X into an $85.6 million debut, and is now becoming a big power-player in Hollywood (X2 finished its run with nearly $215.0 million). Batman Begins should be a good comparison in the possibility that Superman underperforms; though its story is very well known, it is not guaranteed that there will be a huge rush-out effect. However, with Singer’s credibility stronger than (Batman’s) Christopher Nolan’s (who was riding off Memento and Insomnia), that factor could really make up for Superman’s weak spots and help deliver a sizzling performance throughout the summer.

Thanks to the $123.0 million four-day opening, X3 is looking to beat X2's total, but isn't likely to near $300 due to being very front-loaded. Most diehard fans will have seen X at least twice by the end of its second week, which should lead to a long line of weekend drops.

They also predict Superman $ 78 million opening, $ 285 million domestic. POTC, $ 105 million opening, $ 445 million domestic.

Per rottentomatoes

NUMBERS
Box Office: $214,813,155
VHS Rentals: $7,330,000

51.8 million was the last X2 was in the top 50 http://www.imdb.com/boxoffice/rentals?date=2004-01-25

so for total rentals in the US its safe to say 60 million

+ International rentals and US and International VHS and DVD sales

so maybe another 60 mil = another 120 afterthe movie release

Lee's also has 92.5 million in DVD sales so 92.5 + 7.3 in rentals = 99.8 million + 407 million in box office = 506.8 million total. Not bad at all for a $ 110 million investment.

 

[phantom47]

92.5 in DVD sales + last known figure of renatls 52 + 407 BO = 551 mil

 

[Carp Man]

^^ does that include international DVD and internaional rentals and sales or just rentals

No idea. Just know the sales and rental figures. Don't know if they cove international sales. I would assume that is just domestic.

 

[Advanced Dark]

No it doesn't. Oh and Carpman check out the FF2 thread. I have a bit of speculation that I think will turn out to be fact re: Silver Surfer.
