I think people are underestimating the multiplier for MIB3 and I have math to back me up.

Posted by: austpow on May 26, 10:50

2009 Night At The Museum 2 $15.68 + $20.09 +$18.52 + $15.88 = $70.05

$70.05 divided by $15.68= 4.46

2010 Prince Of Persia $10.02 + $10.03 + $9.57 + $7.71 = $37.81

$37.81 divided by $10.02 = 3.77

2011 Kung Fu Panda 2 $13.1 + $18.51 + $16.04 + $13.21 = $60.87

$60.87 divided by $13.1 = 4.64

Average those three out and you get 4.29

 

18 x 4.29 is $77.22

Leave Persia out and you get 4.55

18 x 4.55 is $81.9 

And I think we can at least agree that MIB3 could play similarly, being fairly family friendly.

And it was second weekend, but Shrek 4, another sequel to a disliked franchise entry had a 5.02 multi for MD {nm} austpow May 26, 10:53

Shrek was a disliked franchise? {nm} PVL Admin May 26, 10:55

No, but people hated Shrek 3. {nm} austpow May 26, 10:57

IMO, MIB3 is not as family friendly as NMUS2, PAND2, or SHREK1-4. It aims a little older, as evidenced by its PG-13 rating. {nm} Paul2k May 26, 10:59

I agree. Good math, but not necessarily the greatest comparables IMHO. Not the same audience for Panda as MIB. {nm} PVL Admin May 26, 11:01

It lessens the impact of your math when you use three examples and then take aware the lowest number to prove your point {nm} dioneta May 26, 11:02

I gave the Numbers both with and without Persia because it was the least compatible comparison {nm} austpow May 26, 11:17

Though it is a better one than Sex and the City, Hangover or Terminator {nm} austpow May 26, 11:18

Right... I didn't say your math is wrong, I said its impact is lessened because you eliminated one of your own examples to improve the numbe {nm} dioneta May 26, 11:35

Here is MIB2's 4 day multiplier (July 4th weekend) as another example of note dioneta May 26, 11:38

Family friendly? What do parents tell their kids when they ask about the slapping incident? I guess it definitely has an impact {nm} karspov May 26, 11:02

?!? Seriously or are you kidding? It will not have an impact. Even the gay community has a brain and can see that the dude was out of line PVL Admin May 26, 11:07

"Even the gay community has a brain"? We're a lot more intelligent than saying something as stupid as that. STONYRN May 26, 11:20

fine, delete the word "even" and read again. I was trying to make a bigger point than to get into a discussion about grammar choices. {nm} PVL Admin May 26, 11:26

I think the "we are offended by Will Smith's slapping" community is straining to find something to be outraged over. {nm} Tanker May 26, 11:30

I'm outraged at the outrage. Since when do I not have a legal right to protect/defend myself with applied and appropriate use of force? PVL Admin May 26, 11:45

I'm outraged at all the outrage. {nm} Tanker May 26, 11:56

Then stop thinking, because it isn't working well for you. STONYRN May 26, 12:19

Hodor {nm} Tanker May 26, 13:55

That certainly fits your avatar. STONYRN May 26, 14:53

"I'm just a humble mother****er with a bigass dick." {nm} Tanker May 26, 17:56

"okay {nm} Tanker May 26, 17:57

"Okay, maybe I'm not that humble." {nm} Tanker May 26, 18:00

"A man surprised Will Smith and tried to kiss him. Will Smith overreacted and slapped the dude." That was easy. Tanker May 26, 11:25

It looked like Will was enjoying it until it got too serious. {nm} elchan May 26, 12:15

Well, a couple of helpful tools. Capitals May 26, 11:31

Oops Capitals May 26, 11:37

What would you tell your children to do if a stranger tries to force them to kiss? {nm} forlorne May 26, 11:40

If it is the opposite sex trying to kiss you, slap away. If you slap same sex, you risk being labeled a homophobe. {nm} Tanker May 26, 12:16

Or if they're black, then the slapper is a racist, or a woman then they're a misogynist? That's how much sense you make. STONYRN May 26, 14:59

Each time you post, I subtract 5 years from your probable age. ..I know you are but what am I?. No, you are. Mommyyyyyyyyyy! {nm} PVL Admin May 26, 15:20

Oh, stop projecting. Just because someone calls you for writing something stupid doesn't mean they're immature. {nm} STONYRN May 26, 16:28

You're right, but the three that followed took 15 years off ya. {nm} PVL Admin May 26, 18:44
