Zactly. 2 different movies. One was good the other was doomed months before it hit the screen. {nm}

I think that Hunger Games is going to tank Saturday and Sunday. g2 Mar 23, 15:14

Really? 100M ceiling is a pretty bold call right now! {nm} David_Francis Mar 23, 15:17

Considering it's already made ~$50M, it's impossible unless the world ends tomorrow. {nm} Antibody Mar 23, 15:22

Maybe we've all misread the Mayan calendar? {nm} DTravel Mar 23, 22:31

Even if everyone who sees the movie today has the same reaction and spreads bad WOM, that WOM will not impact as largely for OW as you think {nm} Paul2k Mar 23, 15:18

I'm not sure how your "its just ok" feeling is going to generate such negative WOM to hinder OW prosepcts.. {nm} dioneta Mar 23, 15:22

Good luck with that. I was VERY disappointed with it, but teen girls seem to be loving it, so I'd be wary. hankquinlan Mar 23, 15:22

Unlike you g2, the target audience for this is embarassingly easy to please so they'll love it. {nm} HarryWarden Mar 23, 15:22

Harry, will you be seeing HGAME this weekend? Just curious, 'cuz I know you tend to see a lot of movies, even ones you diss. Paul2k Mar 23, 15:27

It was sold out at the theatre I go to for the showing I was going to attend. Plan on going tomorrow or Sunday {nm} HarryWarden Mar 23, 15:28

Are you serious? I don' {nm} Carcharodon Mar 23, 15:29

t see how ANY movie could do only 5x midnight for the weekend. I'll eat my shoe if this thing only does $100m {nm} Carcharodon Mar 23, 15:31

Sandel or full-blown shoe? ;) {nm} HarryWarden Mar 23, 15:32

Full blown shoe, with ketchup :) On another note, I'm also eating my own words - HP7.2 did less than 5x midnight for the weekend {nm} Carcharodon Mar 23, 15:41

TWLI4 did 4.56 x midnights, HPOT8 did 3.89 x midnights. {nm} KalElFan Mar 23, 16:42

6x midnights would give HGAME $118.5 (Nikki's low end range is $120), breaking Alice's March record. {nm} KalElFan Mar 23, 16:53

Went to an 11:40 am. showing today in Manhattan and i loved it. 57 year old male here. Oh and i did not see nor had any urge to see tradermark Mar 23, 15:31

Are you an aggogger blogger like Paul2k? {nm} PVL Admin Mar 23, 15:33

I may gag or be agog. It depends on the film. {nm} tradermark Mar 23, 15:35

heh {nm} HarryWarden Mar 23, 15:38

If you enjoyed John Carter, which based on it's puny legs to date most did not, your opinion may not be the best guage for HGAME legs. {nm} BionicMoron Mar 23, 16:01

Good luck with that. {nm} ryancoke2 Mar 23, 16:33

Given your post, you sound like someone who didn't read the books. Those who did will be seeing it regardless of anyone else's opinion MiyazakiFan Mar 23, 19:10
