Are you saying there arent enough guys in North America to turn out a good Opening for a fx laden blockbuster?

Who is actually ready to believe, given all tracking so far, that Avatar will open even better than 2012? Facto Nov 26, 21:34

especially with IMAX, i'd think a $50 million weekend is the floor, not the ceiling mickpix Nov 26, 22:22

Over the long haul, quite possibly, but before that we have halt and adjusts.... A 50M opening weekend should be doable, yes, I agree. {nm} Facto Nov 26, 22:48

been a believer since avatar day. {nm} adrenalin112 Nov 26, 22:36

I Am Legend's OW is in trouble . . . {nm} thatpj Nov 26, 22:40

Which was 77M, whereas 2012 opened to the tune of 65M. So, how will you argue for this supposed 4-quad appeal of Avatar? How will it happen? {nm} Facto Nov 27, 02:15

One Word. Twilight. Two words. New. Moon. {nm} thatpj Nov 27, 10:05

Nice rhythm, but I'm not sure what you mean. Yes, that movie you mention might still be going strong and cut into all around BO-business.. {nm} Facto Nov 27, 10:11

So, how that Mr. Fox long? {nm} thatpj Nov 27, 11:29

So you have absolutely no clue what you are talking about, can't back up anything and have to talk about something else? Facto Nov 27, 16:07

Wow... current price needs around H$71 opening... open message for math tribality Nov 27, 05:55

Bigger than 2012, anyway, and I'm not sure if anyone outside of the usual HSX sci-fi/nerd movies fanboy group believes in that? {nm} Facto Nov 27, 06:13

So many things wrong about this thread ;) First, dont get so worked up Facty! 2nd, tracking is dumb okay... islander Nov 27, 06:27

Avatar is all about boys and young guys? Then it would gross much less than Titanic. {nm} Peterlee Nov 27, 07:17

He's joking by taking your post literally :) The "It's about boys and young guys? I thought it was about aliens" nm RogerMore Nov 27, 07:27

doh! :D islander Nov 27, 07:39

I agree about legs, but not so much on 300 as relevant comparison. That movie appealed a *lot* to women also.. (GBUTL's six-pack etc.) Facto Nov 27, 08:12

Also, article neglected to mention the two films (Alvin and Sherlock) are established franchises and/or brandnames. thatpj Nov 27, 10:03

Avatar, you mean? Also, wrong thread (as far as the article is concerned.. ;-) {nm} Facto Nov 27, 10:13

It might appear so, looking at your posts. Hey, read the CoC lately, wiseguy? {nm} Facto Nov 27, 16:08
