>b-b-bbut it's not going to beat Avatar!!!!
Domestically? It's definitely going to beat Avatar. It probably won't beat Avatar's worldwide gross, though. International gross is too low, even if it still hasn't opened in China yet.

/tv/ BTFO again
>>64193002
Why was avatar so popular? I saw it and it was good but I really didn't expect it to be this big of a blockbuster
>>64193093
I'm wondering about this as well. Out of all of the movies, it's this one that's the most popular.
>>64192950
Okay guys let's make another meme quote

Cameronfags on suicide watch
what is inflation
avatards on suicide watch
>>64193234
Yeah, I'm sure those 6 years of inflation are really killing Avatar here.
>>64192950
Man I forgot how long Avatar was.
Is there a fan edit that pulls it down to two hours somewhere?
>>64193093
the experience and immersion
who cares you fucking nerd
>>64193093
>muh 3D gimmick
>>64193093
it was the first film to usher in new IMAX and Real D 3D technologies so most of the profit came from 3D ticket upcharges and hype.
>>64193234
Inflation over the course of 6 years is fairly minimal...and hardly worth noting. But hey maybe there's an economist somewhere that could factor it out once the run of TFA is done and the final numbers are in.
>>64193234
You're a stupid
>>64193093
Judging by Terminator 2 and Titanic, Cameron just seems to have a natural knack for making money. Makes you wonder about his status as a... goyim.
>>64193002
Why don't foreigners like Star Wars?
>>64193282
Why are you this gay.
>domestic
no one talks about the "domestic record." TFA won't touch $2.7B.
>>64193443
I'm not a big Avatar hater, but it was a little long for my taste.
>>64192950
Nothing can beat titanic, no one can
>>64193479
I agree but it wont matter. The merch will more than make up for it. Does Avatar have a theme park in Disney World? Fucking no, it has a shitty video game and no one bought the space-elf action figures.
>>64193093
>it was good
lel
>>64193080
and how happy are you with it?
how did you profit from that succes? 0 $, right?
>>64193534
They're literally making one in the Animal Kingdom right now.
>>64193234
Adjusted for inflation it made $$811,108,900, and that includes the re-release that made $11 millionlol
Who cares Disney spent well over a billion on marketing and filming etc
They're barely just going to break even
>>64192950
I guess this is the ultimate proof that this board will always be wrong, and consequently, that Avatar 2 will flop.
QUICK /TV/, START MEMEING THAT AVATAR 2 WILL FLOP, IT'S THE ONLY WAY IT'LL BEAT STAR WARS VIII
>>64193093
Because it was marketed as the benchmark for 3D and people were genuinely curious if the technology was anything it was all cracked up to be.
Had the movie been released today I doubt it would have made as much money as it ended up doing. Sure it would still have made a lot of money and probably be considered a smash hit but it wouldn't have sold as well.
>>64194449
this tbqh
I can't wait for the colossal flop that Avatar 2 will be
TFA will not beat Avatar
>>64194253
>Space nigs
>Animal Kingdom
kek
>>64192950
>Literally the same posters
Something is confirmed
TFA WILL NEVER EVEN COME CLOSE TO BEATING AVATAR.
lol all these redditors. Cameron is a literal god
>IT'LL BEAT AVATAR BECAUSE IT'S MAKING MONEY FASTER THAN ANY OTHER MOVIE EVER
By the same logic, Jurassic World, The Avengers, Harry Potter 7, should have also beaten Avatar.
>Avatar Internet Defense Force is a thing
literally no one but the most pathetic autists give a shit about Avatar. It was a shit flick and Camron should be ashamed for making 3D a thing again and continuing to make Avaturds instead of good movies. I'm a butthurt hater and this is what I actually believe, cry more.
>>64193534
Not yet, but they will at the end of 2016
THIS IS WHAT BUTTHURT HATERS ACTUALLY BELIEVE.
Cry more.

You should go back to your normie forum, kiddo
>>64194390
Keep telling yourself shit you made up to make yourself less butthurt
>>64194659
Except that Star Wars' second weekend was during Christmas.
>>64194993
So was Avatar's you fucking idiot.
>>64193398
They like Star Wars, they don't like shitty Abrams movies.
>>64194881
Get a load of this newfag

Dumb cunt.
>>64192950
>TFA won't
>episode 9 will
good enough
>>64193002
It's gonna slay the major Asian markets. They get a black lead that it's OK to laugh at.
>>64195158
>What is diminishing returns
Nah. It'll be another case of Age of Ultron, where people don't give a shit and, since Disney is releasing 234242 Star Wars movies per year, people will grow tired of themExcept delusional fans
>>64194449
>8 years after release
>no new gimmick like 3D to back it up
>no great returning characters to build hype and a franchise
>millions of dollars spent rendering and entire fucking sea system
I still can't believie the niggas that just go ''BASED JIM'' and don't accept that this will be flop of the year and reddit will have a field day
>>64195385
You are underestimating Jim, anon. He has another card up his sleeve since he's pioneers filmmaking techniques, while JJ Abraham and hipsters are all about "but muh 35 mm, muh 70s special effects!"
At the end of the day, Based Jim wins it all.
>>64195293
Ultron made less $ because it was garbage.
Disney knows very well not to repeat the mistakes they did with Avengers and Iron Man.
>>64193340
>gimmick
Avatar is the only movie I've seen where 3D actually made it better.
>>64195460
He stopped being "based" the moment he made this piece of fucking shit Avatar.
Avatar was more of a dump popcorn flick for the retarded masses than TFA was.
>>64195464
>Ultron made less $ because it was garbage.
And the capeshit fatigue
>Disney knows very well not to repeat the mistakes they did with Avengers and Iron Man.
Yeah, sure, anon, tell that to the Lone Ranger after the John Carter blunder. You're underestimating executive stupidity.
>>64192950
>hey Jim take a look at TFA's numbers

A shitty fetish.

>>64195464
>Ultron made less $ because it was garbage.
The Mayweather vs Pacquiao fight annihilated Age of Memetron. People cared little about capeshit too.
>>64193093
It was marketed as an experience you had to see in theaters. And, while the movie's content was simpleminded, the visuals were and still are the best use of 3D ever. Once word of mouth got around that you needed to see it in 3D on the big-screen or not at all, since the visuals were the main reason to see it and not the story, then people came out in droves.
I was one of those people. It was one hell of a 3D spectacle in the theater. Yet, I've never had any desire to see it again.
>>64193395
James = Bible Name
Cameron = Not Jewish sounding
>>64195527
You sound like an edgelord Star Wars fan, better go back to your circlejerk forum, kiddo
TWO BILLION IN FOREIGN MARKETS
TWO FUCKING BILLION

That's insane. Cameron is some kinda genius.

ITT BUTTHURT HATERS
Save us Abatap
>>64194390
The leaked figure was 497m including the production budget and marketing budget.
Cross-promotion is incredibly cheap and very successful, though not every company can pull it off so perfectly.
They're already in black.
>>64194390
They already broke even from merchandise alone nigger
>>64194390
>he thinks Disney haven't already planned their way
They can make their money back just for merchandise.
Projected Disney profit from Star Wars merchandise for this year is 9.2B and economists say Disney underestimates (they always do).
It's not about the box office.
>>64196236
You're correct but not if you consider they paid 4 billion just to get SW in the first place.
But as far as TFA goes yeah, and it's going to continue to pay dividends.
>>64195084
>Into Darkness foreign gross: $238,602,923
Whatever you say anon
>>64196448
>they paid 4 billion just to get SW in the first place.
One movie doesn't need to pay off that 4 billion.
>>64196602
Disney said TFA needs to make 2 billion for that deal to be profitable. Looks like it's not going to make that. Star Wars is fucking finished.
>>64196376
>profit from Star Wars merchandise for this year is 9.2B
George got scammed hard.
>>64195531
unreal
Cameron kills the space/capegarbage.
>>64195566
jesus. Hollywood needs to be nuked.
>>64196718
He pretty much gave Lucasfilm away to Disney because he thought they're going to do well with the brand. When the FOX wanted to buy him out George wanted 20 billion.

You're not delusional, you're just a shitposter.

They like star wars, just not blacks or women as the lead.
Why is /tv/ so obsessed with reddit? Not a lot of the other boards are as obsessed with it as /tv/ is.
