TFA has shoved Minions out of the top 10 highest grossing movies list.
Thank God
what the fuck is this minions hype anyway
>>64284869
>iron man 3 is that high
Fuck
>>64284869
old chart .. by tomorrow it will have cooked Iron Man 3 and Frozen
>not adjusting for inflation
What is the fucking point
TFA can definitely beat Iron Man 3, Frozen, DH Part 2 and AoU.
>>64285020
>adjusting for inflation
Yeah because obviously our only options for entertainment these days are either movies or hopscotch
I wonder if it will pass Avatar
>>64284869
It's over Iron Man 3 right now.
>>64285020
The movie made / or is close to making a profit right now. It all cemented the sequel to have high numbers without such a large marketing budget when it comes out. So while you only see 1 billion here, you're actually looking at billions more in future sequels benefiting from the success of this one. That's the point.
> its 2 week peak profit time is over and they think it will pass Avatar
>>64285133
Only if there's the same amount of autists who will go see it 25 times.
Won't beat JW
Oh fuck did you had to remind me Minions were in there? God fuck this planet man, jesus fucking christ we have a disgusting civilization.

The only reason it won't is that the exchange rates are fucked. It will destroy Avatar in the US.

"Put a black guy as a lead in Star Wars", they said.

literally zero good movies in that list
no gone with the wind?
>>64285483
Except the top 2, which are ironically originals and not part of a franchise cash-cow.
>>64285492
That film came out when a movie ticket cost 50 cents.
>>64285423
Wow you sure impressed us. Look at how few things this guy likes, everyone. He should be president. Of Earth.
>>64285483
That's because there isn't a single movie here, only flicks
>>64285086
At least I wouldn't feel bad about seeing Gone in the Wind securely lodged on the top 1 position forever
This list I see makes me want to vomit and gives me this vague uncomfortable sense I don't really like movies anymore
>Star Wars and Titanic are literally the only good movies in the top 10
If you guys wondered why Hollywood makes shit, it's because people watch shit
>>64285441
it certainly is making them focus on existing franchises to rake in their big money
I will never get over Minions, hopefully we will be extinct and any traces of our civilization gone before aliens find us and see that this piece of shit thing is a huge part of our society.
And holy shit, my father actually went to see Minions with the daughter of his wife.

Do you guys think they'll ever make a prequel to the Minions movies? I think an origin trilogy or duology would be great
>>64285536
Titanic is one of the worst flicks there. Cameron can't write for shit.
>>64285596
Nope. The graph is going down. Regardless, Avatar 2 comes out next Christmas to blow everything twice out again.
>>64285596
Only 50% of its revenue is coming from overseas when other films in its demographic do 70% or more. You can't deny that TFA isn't having as much appeal overseas and that's hurting its profits.
>>64285602
Yep. People will look back on it like they do on Raiders. It's an extremely tight adventure movie if you don't mind it using elements from its own series.
>>64285492
It's not adjusted for inflation. I think it made something like 400 million worldwide, but it was 76 years ago, so it's insane shit for its time.
>>64285595
Fuck off, you soulless contrarian fuccboi.
>>64285685

You mean throughout the years as it played on repeat in theaters.

>>64285681

lol you wish. TFA isn't that memorable of a movie. Especially now that Disney planning to do a Star Wars movie every year.
>>64285716

Speak for yourself, consumerism sub-demi-flick gobbler.
>>64285643
>Nope. The graph is going down.
>being this in denial
Of course the graph is going down, moron. But not by much. It made another 29 mil on yesterday. That's another guaranteed 30 mil today. By the end of the week, it will far surpass Titanic. Avatar's domestic record is dirt.
>Avatar 2 comes out next Christmas to blow everything twice out again.
Haha, you're an idiot if you think the hype will stick. Won't even crack 2 bil. Screenshot this.
If it continues at this pace with only dropping 1% or so every weekend then it'll beta Avatar easily
>>64284869
What a depressing list. Beating minions is a sign of great success! Now that if only we can top Furious 7!!
>>64285748
Liked =/= profitable, sadly.
>>64285716

ooh what a fucking travesty
meanwhile an actually good movie with critical acclaim didn't even make $500k this year. but lets hold up Mad Max like some kind of overlooked artistic achievement.
>>64285204
Why does James Cameron look so awful without his beard?
He's a totally different person without it.
>>64285777
By looking at JW's numbers it'll beat out Titanic and possibly Avatar. If both domestic and foreign stay the same and end up with a billion each then it will be Avatar cause both have similar numbers
>>64285959
Wrong pic.
Oh, lord, the amount of shitposting that Jimfags will have to endure next week when TFA surpasses Avatar's domestic gross will be glorious.
>>64285917
>>64286008
everything about this picture says hipster trash
>>64285204
i hope James Cameron has a temper-tantrum/panic-attack when Star Wars beats his Titanic and Avatar records. Maybe then he'll get off his high horse and start actually trying again

>hipster
Come on anon, sure he's trash, but not hipster.
>>64285931
yeah its rated r
>>64285986
I don't think it'll beat Avatar, but my guess is that it's going to be as successful as JW, in China.
>>64285986
uh, Avatar earned over $3 billion in 2015 dollars anon.
>>64286065
It's the only thing stopping him from looking like some uptight French-Canadian, as opposed to a regular uptight Canadian.
>>64286146
Let's not forget that some of the most profitable movies (adjusting for inflation) happened during periods of economic downturn and general societal depression. Avatar came out in the heat of The Great Recession and GWTW came at the tail end of The Great Depression and during WWII.
The tickets came from people wanting to escape the world.

China

China loves it(the same China /tv/ promises me will reject TFA for having a black character)
How does one become James Cameron?
Does your mother need to have sex with a god or something??
>>64286388
it's even more batshit when you consider that 2009 was in the middle of a global recession, and before the most recent series of ticket price hikes.
>>64286388
>Cameroncucks are so desperate they resort to inflation
Embarrassing tbqh.
>>64286365
China which had a bunch of dindu's and black people that /tv/ claims will cause them to not see Star Wars cause there is one black guy
>>64286412
Well it does have the lowest "overseas" income of them all
>>64286458
You are God.
The only good movie on that list is Avatar, Titanic, and Transformers Dark of The Moon. Why are audiences such fucking plebs?
It'll pass Titanic
>>64286509
>Transformers Dark of The Moon
You don't have any right to call others plebs
>>64284906
This
I don't recall seeing anything for that anywhere except a few shills on 4chan for a while and I saw someone with a tumbler that looked like a minion what the hell?
>>64286365
I wonder who
Why is JW even on that list.
It's a totally forgettable flick and it's not even good within it's own series.
>>64285030
It will most likely outgross Titanic.
>>64286600
Kids watch movies too, y'know.
>>64286617
It's fucking mysterious to be honest. It didn't even have great marketing.
>>64285133
It will pass Avatar in the U.S. next week.
>>64286604
Fucking China man, they made Terminator Genysis get the budget back
>>64284869
Holy crap. A movie from 1997 topped all of these movies. That's like a baseball player hitting farther than anyone else with his wooden bat vs. their aluminum.
>>64286684
all the chicks going on dates every week probably saw the damn thing 10 times.
>>64286675
Exactly, and people here for some reason think it won't do well when China eats this shit up.
Ayyyy lmao
>>64286684
Titanic had a really bizarre, really amazing run that literally wouldn't be possible these days
>>64286736
They probably ride all their dates by the end of the flick too.
>>64285674
The movie is going to finish with over 1 billion domestic. If there is a 50/50 split, well do the math.
As for why that split is there, its because the film hasn't done that well in Asia.
>>64286651
Also foreigners
>Dat 71% foreign pull
Only Avatar, Furious 7, HP8 had a (Relative to domestic) higher foreign pull
>>64285643
>He thinks Avatar 2 is going to be released anytime soon.
>>64286782
>toys, sellout
>vs authentic cinema
What's your point here exactly? Cameron owns his films, Lucas owns nothing Starshit related.
>>64285674
TFA hasn't opened in China yet. Expect at least 100 million from there and foreign take to be closer to 60% vs 40% domestic in the long term.
Total Lifetime Grosses
Domestic: $600,949,526 48.9%
+ Foreign: $627,400,000 51.1%
= Worldwide: $1,228,349,526
>>64286782
The ability to sell tickets is insiginificant next to the power of merchandising
>>64285674
China hasn't got the film yet. China has shit taste in films so it'll do fine there.
>>64286844
>Avatar
>authentic cinema
Before Avatar? Sure. But not anymore.
>>64286974
You are now aware that most Jimfags weren't even born the last time he made a good movie
>>64284869
I was expecting about 1.5b $. But movie is better than expected so 2b is possible. Maybe even 2.5b.
Avatar fags are about to learn the ways of the force.
>>64286617
Out of all those movies, Jurassic World is the one you have a problem with? Avengers, Ultron, Iron Man 3, and Transformers are all worse and far less deserving to be there.
>>64286059
why does that shithead with a god-complex James Cameron wait ten fucking years between every movie he makes?
>>64284869

>>64288407
actually nobody likes it nowadays. the only reason people went to see it was because of 3D
>>64286797
No, 50% domestic is ALWAYS BAD.
If it makes $10 billion domestically, but that's 50% of it's worldwide total, it's automatically a flop.
It's like you don't even understand math or something.
>>64286844
The fact that nobody wanted to BUY Avatar toys doesn't mean Cameron wasn't trying to sell them.

Yeah no. It was the studio wanting to cash in. And they were surprised by the films success so they shat out that garbage.

Also, lots of people have held off for fear of theater shootings, so they'll be showing up eventually.
>>64290012
Are you retarded? You know that studio gets almost 2x more from domestic right? Domestic was always the most important. International is an extra.

China isn't going to make as much as you would expect. Since the Culture Revolution, the Chinese have no knowledge of Star Wars and its existence in the rest of the world. Also, they hate blacks.

Just look at that list. All of this recent shit, except for 2 none of them were out 5 years ago. These will be replaced by completely different movies in no time. I say it´s very likely that Episode 7 takes Jurassic Worlds spot.

i even want to buy the toys of some random side character from the new movie because they look cool
The problem is that that just makes Minions number 11. We can't go back in time and make it not successful. It will forever be a component of the Grand Judaic Algorithm For Hollywood
Profit.

I'm not seeing H8ful M8, that's my part.
And Tarantino has been that fringe indie shtick.
I don't know what he's pissing on about, because his movies can barely break $30mil on opening weekend.
And Star Wars is looking to have another $100mil+ weekend
