Re: Fate of the Furious $300M/$1.3B DOM/WW Club I think the brand value is still good. its gonna open huge. Already the presales at AMC are off to a fast chart. courtesy Rallax@BOT.  comscore also shows its the most talked about movie.

Re: Fate of the Furious $300M/$1.3B DOM/WW Club This was screened at CinemaCon and the reactions from critics are mostly quite positive: http://www.slashfilm.com/the-fate-of-th ... arly-buzz/

Re: Fate of the Furious $300M/$1.3B DOM/WW Club Looks like they have started to build up the hype with those reviews. As I mentioned earlier I just don't see it dipping over OW its the legs I feel will be weaker this time.

Re: Fate of the Furious $300M/$1.3B DOM/WW Club This goes back down to Furious 6 levels. They're just milking it now.

Re: Fate of the Furious $300M/$1.3B DOM/WW Club This series has taken its time to win the critics as a mindless dumb action. The last few entries have been good comparatively.

Re: Fate of the Furious $300M/$1.3B DOM/WW Club I didn't say it was bad, but it wasn't very well reviewed.

Re: Fate of the Furious $300M/$1.3B DOM/WW Club It was easy prey. Again, critics are sheep.

Re: Fate of the Furious $300M/$1.3B DOM/WW Club Hard to believe this is coming out next week. The hype/buzz doesn't even feel like it's a quarter of Furious 7's even though I know that had the passing of Paul Walker to boost it, but still this should feel BIGGER IMO.

Re: Fate of the Furious $300M/$1.3B DOM/WW Club I think the series has a pretty big built in audience as well with the good will of last few movies and being brainless action movie. This will still do good over OW but yes it won't increase over the last one's OW number.

I see around ~250m but it won't touch 300m.

Re: Fate of the Furious $300M/$1.3B DOM/WW Club The excitement for this just doesn't seem to be there. Fans will show up but it's a much different feel from the last 2 installments.

Re: Fate of the Furious $300M/$1.3B DOM/WW Club Os could still happen. China could make even 500m(its opening > 200m for sure). But domestically its not sniffing 300m.

Re: Fate of the Furious $300M/$1.3B DOM/WW Club I am not 100% sold on $300m total as well but its definitely going to open big enough to have a chance. OS will happen for sure.

Re: Fate of the Furious $300M/$1.3B DOM/WW Club So $300m is Out. The MAX this will do domestically is $250m domestic. I think OS numbers can still carry this to $1.3b WW.

Re: Fate of the Furious $300M/$1.3B DOM/WW Club This came quite close in the end which should be great. It was never going to match $1.5b of the previous entry but China is making these movies as one of the biggest in the world.
