Movies

on the other hand

Posted by: krapnek on Dec 13, 10:08 in response to JMT's post The difference between those two franchises

The "hotness" of Twilight drives a lot of people (like myself) away, while Harry Potter also drags a big number of adults. Besides, Harry Potter has marked a decade in literature and in movies and that will play a big part in its final chapter box office results, I think.

Answering to the topic I also believe it will be Potter or Transformers taking the crown

What do you think will be the biggest opener in 2011? Iron Man 2 was the winner in 2010 HS-X Dec 13, 08:40

As long as they stick to a Friday opening, then yeah, probably Potter with Transformers or Pirates a close second. {nm} secretstalker Dec 13, 08:43

Potter... no. Twilight... no ( the last one will though ). My guess; TRFM3, PIRT4... + don't count out HNOV2 and the kiddies; RIO and CARS2 JMT Dec 13, 09:12

RIO is definitely not opening above both Potter and Twilight. tribefan695 Dec 13, 09:18

Also, why do you think the last Twilight will open big but the last Potter won't? The whole movie will be one big climax! {nm} tribefan695 Dec 13, 09:24

IMO, the Twilight "fad" is starting to pass. HurricaneKid Dec 13, 10:34

box office and dvd/bd sales have been remarkably consistent for all three films. There {nm} Moviesnob Dec 13, 10:58

there's no evidence its a fad {nm} Moviesnob Dec 13, 10:59

It's not a fad, it's a demographic. And since they are pounding them out, they are going to keep their audience until the end of the series Port Value League Admin Dec 13, 13:13

There is no way HNOV2 opens above $100 mil bloopster Dec 13, 10:56

yes way. ( confidently looking around ) {nm} JMT Dec 13, 11:05

It opens on Thursday. No R-rated film has ever opened above $100 million, let alone a Thursday opener. {nm} tribefan695 Dec 13, 11:36

PANDA2 has a better shot than RIO or CARS2 Dobies Dec 13, 11:13
