I expect JW to get about 96 this weekend. Heard that too many families with 4 year old kids showed up last weekend to inflate that OW number. Lots of annoying little kids that were too young to be there. They won't be there again with Inside Out finishing in the low 70s.

Ouch for Insurgent. It will end up at about 125 domestic. It lost me (a male viewer over 25 years old) due to the poor reviews/lower Metacritic score from the first one. Wonder how many other male viewers from the 1st one it is losing. If it had a 50 on Metacritic I would go see it, but the reviews just are not strong enough for me to bother.

The point of mentioning that poll with regards to "Get Hard" is that the average American adult between about 18 and 32 years old is not all that bright. And the major studios are aware of this fact, so they dumb down many of the mainstream movies accordingly. "Get Hard" will make in its first 3 days what something like The Theory of Everything made in its first 7 or 8 weeks of release.

http://www.politico.com/story/2015/02/poll-millennials-state-senators-114867.html Americans between 18-33 years old were polled. That age group is the audience for "Get Hard." It won't be getting people in their 40s/50s/60s who went to see The Imitation Game. 3/4 of millennials cannot name a Senator from their own state. "Get Hard's" audience is lower in intelligence than average...so for them that number will jump to a whopping 80%.

Vince Vaughn has to be pretty upset over the mostly successful weekend results for "Get Hard." His recent comedies get trashed by critics and then flop financially. Kevin Hart's work also gets trashed, but his audience seems to stick by him.

Yes, it would make you an idiot if you decided to go see it. Watch March Madness instead....despite the fact that The Miami Hurricanes did not make the tournament.

It will attract idiotic people of all races.

I like a few of them myself. Specifically Stranger Than Fiction and Anchorman. But anything that has a 34 on Metacritic is for the bottom feeders of society. Sorry, but it just is. Quiz the people in line to see this opening weekend and ask if them if they can name one of the U.S. Senators from their own state. You will get very telling results.

I won't be shocked if Get Hard somehow manages to net 30-35 million in its OW, despite the horrible average score of 34 on Metacritic, and a bunch of 1 star reviews. There are a decent number of people in America whose favorite TV shows to watch are Maury Povich, Jerry Springer, and Jersey Shore.

Any chance of Get Hard disappointing with an OW of only 20 million? That Metacritic score of about 32/33 is embarrassingly low. Movietickets.com has Get Hard significantly behind "Home."

Oz's audience was only about 53-54% female....lots of males were in the audience. Cinderella's 66% female audience is not enough for it keep up with the same kind of multiplier Oz had. It will probably finish only at 190, despite the good reviews.

It is going to be difficult with 66% of the audience being female. I would go with a domestic total somewhere 190-200.

OMG for the percentage drop for "Unfinished Business"

Audience for Tangled - 61% female. Audience for Cinderella - 66% female. Wouldn't be surprised to see Cindy finish with a domestic total at 195-200, even after having a much bigger OW than Tangled. Just not enough males in the theaters.

Oz: Great and Powerful during its first 7 days: audience was 53% female. Cinderella is at 66%.
