Iron Man 3 vs Man of Steel

Started by juggernaut7439 pages

Doing some research I discovered something I kinda lost track of but the 35 day total for IM 3 is 388.5 million while the 35 day total for TDKR was 415 million! Comparing apples to apples Batman kicked Iron Man's @ss as the boxoffice without 3D!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think word of mouth regarding "Trevor" helped a lot in kicking IM3's ass too

I HOPE that MOS is great (and judging by the nokia trailer I saw recently, it will be).

I'd love to see Doomsday and Superman fighting in Metropolis, but the only way that happens is for us to get past the Lex Luthor and Zod only movies. Like, this is a reboot and Zod is in it again, but hopefully, we can see some more interesting Supes villains soon. Also, if this movie tanks that's really gonna hurt DC's chance at having their own Super Hero Team movie.

BUT, I REALLY doubt this movie will tank. I expect it to make at least $300 million domestic, probably more.

This movie looks like it may bring PROPER fighting action back to super hero movies, because lately that has been sorely lacking. I'm tired of saying "that's it?" at the end of the final showdown.

You make is sound like IM did terrible. If all of Marvel's movies do as 'badly' as IM3 did at the box office then they are still going to be top dog in the comic book movie area.

I do think MoS is going to do well at the box office though. And it looks like it could be a great movie

The domestic figure is 398 million $, and it's closing in quickly. IM3 surpassed TDKR in the overall box office gross. Only butthurt Batfags and DC fans would try and argue that TDKR has "beat" IM#. Reality says otherwise. 😆

Considering that IM 3 was released in China and other markets that TDKR didn't, I would assume that's why IM3 won in overall numbers. China alone was about 200 Million, which if deducted would be about 1.1, same as TDKR

Not to mention, inflation 😂 3-D..etc

I see a lot of assumptions in those statement?

But what if TDKR was released China? Well it may have closed the gap between IM3 and TDKR some but you don't know for sure. It might have tanked in China in terms of numbers. It might have pushed TDKR over IM3 you don't know.

How much did 3D bolster IM3's collection so far? Would Batman still have made a lot if it was offered in 3-D would people have gone to see that movie in 3D as much as people did in IM3?

Just FYI TDKR was released in China (and did well), it was TDK that wasn't.

The man of steel got his jitters and who did he turn to?

DC fans in general and batfags in particular are upset that IM3 outperformed TDKR. Not surprised here.

I'm going to have to check this, but I have no idea how 😆

I'll get back, but I was certain it was not released there

I don't think IM 3 will pass it domestically, but I already said it will make more money WW, so no.
