LAT: CAPA2 likely to generate $90 million or more, according to people who have seen pre-release audience surveys. Apr 03, 12:25
V: Captain America: The Winter Soldier targeting a projected $90 million bow or higher. Apr 03, 12:27
A 100+ OW would be great gift for a great movie like this I saw it again yesterday WOW {nm} Apr 03, 12:31
unless you can quantify % uptick to RT %, it's still anecdotal. {nm} Apr 03, 13:12
So CAPA2 has gone down from 92 to 89? What does that mean? Still waiting for something more substantial than the obvious Apr 03, 13:57
That's casual observation = anecdotal. The % number itself is still unquantifiable and meaningless. {nm} Apr 03, 16:46
Difference not different. :-) {nm} Apr 03, 16:55
Yes, I know there's no formula, but you seem to believe there's one for RT%. You put way to much value in RT%. {nm} Apr 03, 17:05
You still haven't told us what the correlation is between RT% and opening weekend box office. Still waiting... {nm} Apr 04, 08:56
The burden is on you to show how RT% correlates to OW box office because you're the one who post RT%. {nm} Apr 03, 14:03
It's not backtracking or conceding, I'm saying that's all anecdotal. RogerMore showed below there's no relationship. Apr 03, 16:59
Yes, small sample size, casual observation, no formula = anecdotal. The RT% is meaningless as a measurement of box office. Apr 04, 09:02
While I believe it will pull in more on Sat than Fri, I doubt it has much to do with WOM or the reviews, and if anyone... Apr 03, 15:14
"I don't see much relationship between RT and the Fri-Sat bump" {nm} Apr 03, 16:50
It's pretty clear from my post that I don't believe there's a magic formula, so please stop making straw man arguments. {nm} Apr 03, 18:39
LOL - talk about turning on a dime. (Also, Aurora was TDKR, not TDK) {nm} Apr 03, 20:34
You've gone from suggesting that CAPA2 will have a strong IM because of its high RT score to saying that it won't do well with families Apr 04, 06:37
