Mole 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2003 When it comes down to it, word of mouth is what helps a movie the most. Matrix has bad word of mouth, so it isn't doing well. When Return of the King comes out, it will put anything to shame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kahran Ramsus 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2003 When Return of the King comes out, it will put anything to shame. Harry Potter 3 in June could give it a good run, but ROTK will crush anything this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2003 I think the Lord of the Rings Movies would have made a lot more if they had been released in the summer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2003 (edited) The LOTR movies don't have a summer movie vibe to them though. Perhaps it's due to it being a somber series for the most part, it's not really quite fitting for summer. It fits in later in the year, going to see it while you freeze your ass off in the winter, that kind of thing. Why would Harry Potter 3 have a huge buzz surrounding it? With the HP series I'm expecting the law of diminishing returns, perhaps not in terms of quality but in terms of box office. Now, given the news of the past week or so regarding Saruman I dunno if ROTK is really as surefire as we've been led to believe. As much as I'm wanting to love the movie, I already see some pretty glaring problems: Spoiler (Highlight to Read): 1. How exactly can they explain Saruman vanishing? Will they just say "Oh he's dead?" 2. If you don't have Saruman then it basically adds up to people now being forced to care about Sauron, which no one really does. I mean, Christopher Lee has had to carry the whole heel side of things in the first two movies. Viewers think Saruman = main heel.

pochorenella 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2003 6. Love Actually - $8,880,000/$8,880,000 Are you sure about this numbers? I remember the movie being released last week (limited) and making a huge $6 million-plus opening, so that total doesn't make sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the pinjockey 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2003 It was on about 600 screens last week. This week it moved up to 1100+ so it is still limited. And it is making a killing on per screen average. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest NaturalBornThriller4:20 Report post Posted November 18, 2003 Even if it did, it is a sure bomb. What makes you say that it is a sure bomb? Don't give me that "Paul Walker is in it" crap. Whoever said "Radio" bombed, no it didn't. It wasn't a big hit, but it wasn't a bomb either. It was a mid-sized hit.
