Damn, Avatar was a beast of a movie. There has been almost 20% inflation + all sorts of crazy movie passes propping up since Avatar was in theaters. Probably all of that extra revenue from 3D and IMAX.
Do they have breakouts of revenue as standard vs 3D vs Fauxmax vs true IMAX? Would be interesting to see,
That avatar is so busy, its less of an insult rather than confusing.
So here's the expectation of it beating AVATAR with this re-release:
1. It is expected that people will flock to theaters because they are adding a Blu-Ray scene at the end of the credits.
2. It is expected that people will flock to the theater now because of ^ when they aren't flocking to the theater now.
3. It is expected that people will flock to the theater to catch a 1-3 minute Blu-Ray scene for a 3hr movie in theaters after they have seen the movie already.
4. It is expected that people will flock to the theater to catch a 1-3 minute Blu-Ray scene in theaters after they have seen the movie, are expected to continue paying for it to see it again when they can just wait to buy the Blu-Ray.
5. It is expected that people will not only see the movie again, with some people seeing it 10+ times already (Zatt and some people on social media boasting how many times they've seen Endgame) but to also continue giving Disney money, buy the Blu-Ray and Subscribe to Disney+ to watch Endgame AGAIN there for the 20th time.
Well, there is a lot of people, me included, that had it hard to justify another go, but this works as an excuse lol
Not with this limp wristed effort they're not.
If they were really going for the head, it would be with an actual extended edition.
I dont know if an end scene will generate 45 mil. Some extra footage like cap fighting thanos or something would be awesome.
Look at what Captain Marvel made in anticipation for Endgame
And you guys are saying Endgame, a 3hr movie will make $40m+ in anticipation for FFH?

This is just too god damn entertaining to sit on the sidelines for.

A movie based off the threads these past few weeks would legit be good.

This is getting to be like the end of the 1992 Indy 500.
It's just down to who's Al Unser Jr. and who's Scott Goodyear in this metaphor.

The new run counts towards the total. Same with Avatar's re-release.
It's a leap of faith. That's all it is, Miles.
to be fair it took you 58 days to make that leap of faith :P
That's the dream scenario for Disney. If Endgame passes Avatar, they can advertise for the Blu Ray release and other promotional materials that Endgame is the "Highest Grossing Film Of All Time." Let it have the title through Oscar season and then do the Avatar re-release during a slow time next year. Have Avatar pass Endgame again and then in the TV spots and promotional material for Avatar 2, you can say "The Sequel To The Highest Grossing Film Of All Time." Disney wins two times in that scenario. Although Disney wins regardless of what happens with the BO crown.
I would really like it if someone could explain how this will somehow push Endgame over Avatar?
The movie has been out for a while and the late legs on it have been relatively bad. How is 6 minutes of DVD extras at the end of this 3 hour film gonna make people go see the movie?
All evidence points to this not doing shit so I really want to know why this is different.

We a live in Disney World and just don't realize it, don't we?
Feige will not be denied his
It won't. Before details emerged people were speculating about a special edition with new scenes which could have given it a good boost. With it being a trailer for the home release it will do barely anything.
You know what had better legs than Endgame?
The Greatest Showman
What's that mean?
Add a post credit scene with Hugh Jackman joining the MCU
As PT Barnum
His intro is singing a 5 minute song and throwing Zendaya off a roof
