THR: Prerelease tracking indicates [BATM3] will eclipse BATM2 to Score Biggest Weekend Opening of All Time for 2D Movie Antibody Jul 09, 14:21

I wouldn't be surprised if it beats harry potter and eventually it will have similar legs like that of Dark Knight...i doubt it will come b4bad Jul 09, 14:24

I think it can beat AVengers of it's as good as initial buzz GMov Jul 09, 14:32

BATM3 would have to sell more tickets to make up for 3D which was an extra ~$2 to 40% of AVNGR's OW. {nm} Antibody Jul 09, 14:41

Yea it can sell more tickets than AVNGR and still have an OW below it. {nm} Jay_Beezy Jul 09, 15:15

Can I get a "Well, duh" islander Jul 09, 14:35

There are many who believe the death of HLEDG bumped up BATM2. {nm} Antibody Jul 09, 14:38

Still, excitement for 3 has been loud enough. It's just i can't believe an ow under batm2 could ever been considered {nm} islander Jul 09, 14:46

I've read a number of folks constantly state this and I've told them constantly that they're wrong. MiyazakiFan Jul 09, 14:52

yes, just simply unbelievable. i want so badly for BATM3 to hold that record and Avengers had to go and truly screw the pooch lobogotti Jul 09, 17:47

I think it did. BUT Dales Jul 09, 15:52

which is a HUGE reason Inception did so well...the Nolan draw. this is also a reason TDKR will capitalize even more. lobogotti Jul 09, 17:44

I think there's no question that Ledger's death caused somewhat of an uptick, but TDK wouldn't have had the run it had if it that were all LanceStorm22 Jul 09, 16:21

It was that amazing performance by HLEDG that bumped BATM2. {nm} mrbeankc Jul 10, 01:36

wow...people saying it might beat TDK...seems to imply it's a better movie {nm} tealfan Jul 09, 15:15

No, it doesn't... {nm} slappydavid Jul 09, 15:20

then what's the basis for it potentially doing better than TDK? {nm} tealfan Jul 09, 17:12

I don't know, but what I do know is that box office results are not indicative of movie quality... {nm} slappydavid Jul 09, 17:17

too bad not many traders are left to buy it. i suppose twins would have to work o/t :) {nm} Oleg Max Jul 09, 15:46

How does tracking compare with Hunger Games? {nm} Tanker Jul 09, 16:05
