ight, you don trust richard roper in knowing box office? how buot one of the guys who runs boxofficeprophets.com.

maybe you should tell people to stop saying this film has no awareness then.

the pics werent directed at you. .

Superman is kinda like Tom Cruise. You might think because of how much in love he looks to be with a woman and now that he has a kid that theres no possible way he can be gay, but deep down inside he's craving for man ass.

Except BJ optimism has spread, and many are predicting 450m+ for POTC2. I think POTC2 will be big, but I doubt it can get in the 450m range or near it. Yet no one protests to BJ or anyone predicting 450m+ for POTC2 even when they have no evidence to support them aside from Shrek 2.

Huh, excel? People have yet to find out SR opens on June 28th. TV spots had it at June 30th.

Excel, Zing is right. BOP has zero credibitily. It is by far one of the worst BO sites on the net. They get lucky every now and then, but that's about it. They are usually WAY off.

The biggest area of conflict for SR is whether people think people are intrested or not. I think the fanboys and a good portion of the general population is intrested in it. I think the porblem is that the genearal population is not liek DYING to see it. Its a film that is like, "yeah, looks intresting and cool." POTC2 right now is the film the general population is dying to see.

I felt the same way about WOTW last year, and like last year, I think SR will benefit majorly from the holiday boost. The holidays is great because it gives an extra incentive for the "intrested" to go see it. A lot of times, you have films that people are intrested in, but they don't have that one extra reason to see it(which I think happend with MI3). Holidays to me provide that as seen with the films benefiting from holiday boosts in history.

The fanbase will rush out on the first two days, giving SR a total around 41m-49m. Then, the holiday boost starts to work in come June 30th, and the general population push its total pass 100m, and I think it'll have a total past 150m right before POTC2 opens.

Oh, and someone argued that July 4th holiday won't help it. Let's just look at The Patriot, which opened the same date as SR on July 4th. Its first sunday drop was 18%, and then its monday drop was 2%. And it dropped 14.5% on July 4th. Now, obviously SR will be more frontloaded so it won't have drops like that, but it still will have great drops on days where blockbusters like SR usually experinece bigger drops. To say that July 4th will help it minimal is just ridiclous I think.

dude ive seen several reports saying "make that the 27th" for superman talking bout it openign at 10pm on tuesday the 27th.

Maybe WB will hire the painter to paint over the 30 with a "28" on the large billboard hanging up near the freeway, maybe theater owners will cross out the 30 on the SR posters at their lobby and replace it with "28"

Hehe Sommie. I think Krem making everyone having the same avatar caused you to respond to the wrong poster like what Kilumanti did by impersonating BKB

Batman has the biggest internet fanboys by far, mainly because Batman Begins is the best comic-book film of all time and it created that huge internet fanbase.

If Spider-man was on that list, Batman would still beat him.
