I expect he is relying on. . .

Posted by: second gary (a.k.a 80181597) on May 21, 15:53 in response to Facto's post What's the analyst basing his above 100M prediction on?...

... the performances of "Mamma Mia," "Les Miserables" and "Chicago," and he is pushing from his mind "Rent," "Phantom of the Opera" and "Nine."  

"Jersey Boys," as a musical, has a real following, but I haven't seen the trailer yet (is there a trailer yet?)

That Jersey Boys prediction is going pretty far out on the limb! {nm} forlorne May 21, 13:53

think it's too high? {nm} Dorfman May 21, 13:56

What's the analyst basing his above 100M prediction on? Previous Eastwood movies like Gran Torino? Appeal to the Mamma Mia-audience? Is it a Facto May 21, 14:57

Clint Eastwood's last two directoral efforts didn't crack 100 million. Jersey Boys has the girl/gay market {nm} thedudeman2222 May 21, 17:53

Not good news for JUPTR {nm} Dorfman May 21, 13:56

He said SPID5 was gonna do $350M doemstic. Nobody knows anything. {nm} Antibody May 21, 13:57

Don't know what we don't know {nm} Dorfman May 21, 14:00

Also no mention of Neighbors, which is gonna make more than what he says Blended will make. {nm} Jay_Beezy May 21, 14:06

had to do a double take on that one. {nm} thedudeman2222 May 21, 17:55

But he predicted GODZILLA! SO HE KNOWS EVERYTHING!!!! BWHWHHAHHHA {nm} JustaGuy May 21, 14:04

I could flip a coin and be 50-50. :) {nm} Antibody May 21, 14:07

Not necessarily. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2014 May 21, 14:46

I'm trying hard to keep my mouth shut on this. :) {nm} ShawnMR May 21, 15:02

You know you wanna say something, Shawn. Don't fight it. :D {nm} Jay_Beezy May 21, 15:18

"Say it! Say it!" {nm} second rocky horror fan May 21, 15:31

Heh. Nah, good for him. That kind of recognition doesn't come easy. {nm} ShawnMR May 21, 16:12

We can already see he is way too high on Spidey, and too low on Godzilla. Half of his predictions seem really out there. Facto May 21, 16:23
