Actually, that's wrong. Updated here:
At an average ticket price of ~$8, AVNGR sold ~26M tickets on its OW. However, dioneta has since informed me that the first weekend average is usually higher, so if we say ~$10 per ticket, then it sold ~20.7M tickets. The 3D uptick is between $4 and $6 per ticket, so we need to factor that in to the tickets sold and reduce that number proportionally. It's been said that around 52% of AVNGR's OW came from 3D screenings, meaning that of the $207.4M OW, $107.85M came from 3D screenings. Discount this for the 3D uptick, and the normal gross before the uptick from those screenings would be $72.85M, and at an estimated average ticket price of ~$10, that means that ~7.3M tickets were sold in 3D. That means that BATM3 would actually have to sell ~3.5M more tickets to equal AVNGR's gross (if my estimates are close), and that if it did sell ~4.5M more, it would end up somewhere around $215M.
THR: BATM3 has already racked up 25 mil in advance sales, one of the best #s all time; could do 185-195. Jul 18, 17:13
Of AVNGR's OW of 207.4, roughly 35 mil came from the 3d upcharge. {nm} Jul 18, 17:15
*average ticket price, I mean. {nm} Jul 18, 17:20
The $8 average accounts for discount shows, matinees, etc... First run averages are higher {nm} Jul 18, 17:30
How much higher, do you think? {nm} Jul 18, 17:39
I'm sure it has to be closer to $10 if not slightly more... (a pure and total speculation though) {nm} Jul 18, 17:47
Avengers was released in 50+ less IMAX screens than TDKR {nm} Jul 18, 17:32
Where do you find this info? I always wanted to find it myself {nm} Jul 18, 18:42
I used my trusted friend, maths, and reasonable estimates. Jul 18, 18:56

ahhh thank you for that in depth response :) Much appreciated! {nm} Jul 18, 20:07
So if it sold same number of tickets as Avengers, WEBO would be only 172.4! What about Imax? {nm} Jul 19, 00:59
