 Re: Thor: Ragnarok predictions The brand has only increase since and even the lesser known Marvel superhero's are chugging great numbers. Adding Hulk will only help this so I believe $95m-$100m OW should happen though the legs won't be kind and I don't see it doing more than $250m.

Re: Thor: Ragnarok predictions OW- $120 M
Lifetime domestic - $250M
Overseas - $400M
Marvel will have the most profitable year with two more films releasing beside Thor.

Re: Thor: Ragnarok predictions Thor 2 adjusts to 89m and had way less hype. I think it does 100m at the very least.

Re: Thor: Ragnarok predictions Four of the six sequels in the MCU went over $100 million, and one came within $6 million of the mark. With an extra Avenger in this film and some of the stronger marketing of the franchise, I don't see why $100+ million is unlikely.

Re: Thor: Ragnarok predictions Why would it increase 15% over Thor 2, after poor reception? And adding a character that has proven time and again to not be a draw?

Because its a sequel to Thor 2 in the same way that Civil War was a sequel to the Winter Soldier? All the movies are so intertwined at this point it's hard to say that poor reaction to a film from 2013 is going to have more effect on the opening than the more recent MCU efforts.

Re: Thor: Ragnarok predictions So this is Thor's version of Civil War? If this jumped at the same % that CW jumped from TWS, you'd be looking at a $161 mil OW. Are you predicting that?

No it's not exactly the same but it's certainly more significant than a direct sequel to The Dark World.

Re: Thor: Ragnarok predictions Is it? Because it adds a character we've seen in multiple stand-alone films which have done less than stellar results?

Didn't you just make a club for a 250m total? That's a 17% increase in total.  If it has the same legs as Dark World it would need a 104m opening to reach 250m.

I think it will have better legs than Thor 2, slightly. Just trying to keep expectations in line. _________________trixster wrote: shut the fuck up zwackerm, you're out of your fucking element trixster wrote: chippy is correct

Re: Thor: Ragnarok predictions Oh please this movie clearly has far more buzz than The Dark World ever did.

Re: Thor: Ragnarok predictions Doctor Strange had a mediocre marketing campaign IMO, but even that movie opened to $85M. I know the market was in a weak place then, but I also believe a lot of it had to do with the goodwill of the Marvel brand and the really positive reviews. This already seems to have a lot more buzz than that movie ever did and if it gets great reviews it's going to explode.

The only event movies opening in the three months before Thor are It, Kingsman 2, and Blade Runner 2049 - all R-rated. Thor will be the first non-R event movie since Dunkirk, and that should benefit it quite a bit.

Re: Thor: Ragnarok predictions http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-v ... urs-992978Quote: The trailer for Thor: Ragnarok, which was unleashed Monday by Disney, the parent company of Marvel, has garnered more than 136 million views in only 24 hours.
It becomes the not only the most viewed Marvel trailer ever, but also the studio’s most viewed trailer ever across all its brands, which includes Disney’s live-action and animation divisions, Pixar, Star Wars, as well as Marvel.
The Beauty and the Beast trailer was the previous 24 hour record-holder for Disney with 127.6 million views. Star Wars: The Force Awakens was viewed 112 times in that time frame. Captain America: Civil War held the previous Marvel record with 94 million views. I wonder if the Thor/Hulk combo is way bigger than we thought. They were the two parties missing from Civil War, so I wouldn't be surprised if people that much more hyped to see them.

Re: Thor: Ragnarok predictions What a gutless post. You're not saying that's not going to happen, but you're also not saying it will. So, basically you're saying nothing, and should probably not post at all. Get in one camp or the other instead of pussy-footing on the rim while still stirring the pot. _________________STOP UIGHUR GENOCIDE IN XINJIANG

Re: Thor: Ragnarok predictions Thor with that haircut = $500m+
really interesting to see the neon marketing approach, totally different from the previous thor movies. following the success of Guardians and Suicide Squad
