You keep assuming that Finding Dory will open as big as Toy Story 3 despite having way more competition.

Posted by: diamondman56 on Jun 13, 13:54 in response to lobogotti's post meaning, for where this is going to open it's not going...

When Toy Story 3 opened, the only other opener was Jonah Hex. You're underestimating Central Intelligence and the audiences that it will appeal to that might not go see a Pixar movie unless there wasn't another choice.

Dory is selling quite heavy at my theater. they are going to have to add more screens for standard showtimes lobogotti Jun 13, 12:56

But will it have Toy Story's 4x multiple? That's what scares me. {nm} bennyg1985 Jun 13, 13:00

I think it will be a 2.7 adjust, am i wrong? {nm} iagommc Jun 13, 13:13

I'm talking about it's actual multiple at the end of it's run. Toy Story had an almost 4x multiple of it's opening weekend bennyg1985 Jun 13, 13:17

Sorry, *Toy Story 3 {nm} bennyg1985 Jun 13, 13:18

Oh, yeah, sorry. i think it will finish at 380Mi {nm} iagommc Jun 13, 13:21

at this point it's a near certainty it's going to beat Captain for the summer IMO. I would be willing to lobogotti Jun 13, 13:21

meaning, for where this is going to open it's not going to need a 4x multiplier. IMO a 3.25 will be enough lobogotti Jun 13, 13:23

I will not take that bet. If that 95% rotten tomatoes score holds, we could see a $100 mil difference between this and CAPA3 {nm} bennyg1985 Jun 13, 13:33

It won't. I heard it's just another unnecessary Pixar sequel. Probably close to 90% cause no one wants to hurt the kiddies' feelings. {nm} diamondman56 Jun 13, 13:53

I smell a bet in the works {nm} lobogotti Jun 13, 13:56

how about this? I'll take $120M OW and above, you take anything below? loser has to change their nickname for lobogotti Jun 13, 14:00

Count me in. I'll post as "Lobogotti's Always Right" if it's over $120 million. (Assuming I can figure out how to change it) {nm} diamondman56 Jun 13, 14:02

and I will do the same for your handle. Good luck to you diamond {nm} lobogotti Jun 13, 14:04

No, I think you should post as "IHateDisney" for two weeks when it opens under $120 million. :) {nm} diamondman56 Jun 13, 17:42

T.O. and I will bring the popcorn! Good luck gents! {nm} Willroast Jun 13, 17:58

;) {nm} lobogotti Jun 13, 20:10

whatever you want! {nm} lobogotti Jun 13, 20:11

Haha this is just perfect! {nm} RickandMorty Jun 13, 15:58

I can't gauge how BFG will go but PETS will definitely eat into DORY's prospects. Big open for Dory but I question the legs. {nm} leo21 Jun 13, 17:45

a wager might be in your future good sir? {nm} lobogotti Jun 13, 20:11

waves a wad of cash at lobo ;) {nm} islander Jun 13, 13:32

name the terms my boy! {nm} lobogotti Jun 13, 13:33

probably do this thru email? islander Jun 13, 13:35
