According to the archives and search, there isn't a thread for The Island yet. Or, I hope #-o

The final trailer came online today at apple:

Bay's name as a big action director oughta pull in audiances for this one. It looks to be a smart action flick. I see it having an excellent performance

Opens July 22nd.

What are your predictions?
I foresee a 40 million dollar opening and a finish in the upper 130 range.

Anyone else?

The movie looks fantastic. I see Minority Report numbers, but a smaller total.

Opening: $36 million
Total: $118.8 million

the New Trailer looks fantastic!

$41M/$145M

You little whore.

I was the big time Island nutcase before you stepped back into the forums...

I said you'd come back and sure 'nuff, you did. Gimme props, boy.

Actually there was one, just not updated for a while anymore.

I predict typical Bay numbers.

Opening weekend - $45 million

Total gross - $120 million

Oh, damn Eagle and his non-functioning search options.

Well, we can leave this one to float down and revive the other if anyone wants. I don't care where we discuss it.

Mary, speak up!

Excuse me for having good taste. :razz:

I missed you.

45/145. I think that will be a hit and it will get some extra people (not only bay fans) cause of its story.

I, Robot numbers, but without the Will Smith effect, so slightly lower

$44million opening
$128million total

$51M to $135M. Huge hit, it looks fantastic.

Speaking of story, I heard this was based upon Brave New World, which is a fantastic book. Anyone know for sure?

$42m / $125m

I dont know. But now when you mention that. It really looks like Brave new World ( expect for the 30 Mio Car Chase :2up: )

You can thank Bay for that. Nothin like 'splosions! :razz:

I think it looks amazing.

The trailer was fantastic, and the tv spots are very good.

I'm looking forward to this, and I think it will be a moderate success, nothing major.

$37/$120

I wouldn't be surprised if it breaks out though, and makes more than $150 million. Anything is possible, especially for this kind of movie.

It looks very interesting and I've heard a lot of people talking about this one. Having the trailer attached to War of the Worlds three weeks earlier certainly won't hurt (same with Wedding Crasher/Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, also WB). It doesn't have Will Smith, but the trailer is much stronger then any of I, Robot's were, so I think they'll cancel each other out. 55/155.

This is gonna be big.

I see around $42M/$120M

It should be big.

Opening - $46 million
Closing - $157 million

BJ early prediction:

55m / 250m

this will be a huge hit

I didn't think much of the earlier trailer

but

I liked the excitment of the new trailer.

can the title of the thread be changed to the Island Prediction thread or the Island Prediction/Tracking thread if you intend to track the films BO performance

Scarlett is actually becoming bigger and bigger every day in magazines and newspapers. I hope this is a hit for both her, and SCOTTISH ewan!

Sure.

I laughed so hard during the trailer. Any comedy that puts a smile on your face like that is bound to be huge.


Did anyone else feel that Scarlett was on the verge of having a fit of hysterical laughter throughout the trailer?

thanks :wink:
