Guest MarvinisaLunatic Report post Posted May 5, 2003 Heres how that $150+ million figure came about.. LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Hollywood's lucrative summer box office season got off to an early start over the weekend as the comic book adventure film "X2: X-Men United" stormed cinemas worldwide in the biggest launch in movie history. According to studio estimates issued on Sunday, the massively hyped sequel sold $85.9 million worth of tickets in its first three days of release across the United States and Canada. It also earned $69.3 million from 93 countries, taking its total to $155.2 million -- more than half of what the first movie, 2000's "X-Men," made in its entire run...

Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted May 5, 2003 I'm not underwhelmed by that #. I didn't think it would cross 70 mil. The first movie wasn't Spiderman popular or even close. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Youth N Asia Report post Posted May 5, 2003 Man if you're going to get the results at Greg's previews you gotta cut out the last numbers, they don't make sense when you don't explain what they are. I knew X2 was going to be huge, but I didn't think it would go over that big, but it was on 3,741 screens Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matrix won't break that, it's rated R. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If that isn't impresive, then I don't know what is. 4th highest non holiday weekend gross. It could be higher since final figures don't come out until later today.

Guest cabbageboy Report post Posted May 5, 2003 The Real Cancun basically shows what I have always thought: reality shows are fine for TV, but you cannot seriously expect people to PAY to see that crap. I mean it's just regular people acting like dumbasses on the beach. On TV it might be a reality show, but as a movie it's called a documentary...and we know how much those draw.

I mean, fuck, the film better it's first weekend opened up in only 595 theaters than it did every other weekend while at a max. in 847. Let it go man, let it go. Can I say one more thing about it please? It's just that I was watching the Donnie Darko commentary tonight and they said that movie only cost 4 million. Then I thought about how Corpses had a shooting budget of 7 million. I would really like to know where that 7 went. Good movie, bad movie, whatever, the movie looked really cheap and it didn't look like it cost 7 million. I would've guessed 2 or less. But yet, Donnie cost 4 but looked like it cost 20. It's amazing what a talented director can do with nearly half the money of an amateur hack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Crucifixio Jones Report post Posted May 6, 2003 If Darko only cost $4 mil to make then the director's phone should be ringing off of the hook. Hollywood loves the cost-effective director. Ask Robert Rodriguez. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Youth N Asia Report post Posted May 7, 2003 Speaking of... I just got my Donnie Darko DVD at Best Buy today for $9.99. And I had to bitch to be let in cause they were closing and they let in some dickmeat in 3 steps ahead of me. Be damned if they're going to let some asshead in and not me.
