What the shrek happend to KFP4 this weekend? Unter 100% jump on Friday and under 50% on saturday? Did I miss something?

Civil War is a perfect example of a movie being released at the right time. I wouldn't be surprised at all, if this broke out really, really big.

$52m with a 18,4m Friday? Yeah, no, should try a little higher...

18,5m would obviously lock 60m, but it would be incl. previews. Would still be a great number. It's march after all and this could come close to $60m even with only 14,7m true Friday.

I guess the Netflix Series made up for the big gap between movies. And still a thing: Families are desperate for new material. It's ridiculous, how Hollywood gave up on pretty much 2 quadrants, when they shipped kids movies and women material to Netflix. Not to mention, how a 4Q-Genre, comedy, was completely slaughtered and neglected.

Jurassic City? Oh dear. Still not able to get rid of a couple of dinosaurs? I just hate where this franchise is going. It used to have inner logic, Even Dinosuars in the City in Lost World was okay in that univers. But losing control over dinosaurs, after a hand ull broke free in JW2? Give me a break...

One thing to keep in mind for the panda is the fact, that it had a hard time being trailered in theaters for at least a month now with only Wonka and Migration keeping the family movie on life support. That's for sure something unusual. So maybe that lack of awareness will be made up by better legs, especially due to the fact, that the Panda is the only life support until Garfield opens in more than 2 months.

Well, theater owners should care, because admits sell popcorn and soft drinks. There will be a breaking point, when higher premium-prices won't make up for the loss of admissions.

Happy with the numbers, but from a theater owners perspective it's still quite baffling, that that's basically half of an audience, an average 2010-movie drew with an $80m-opening. Even 5 Nights at freddys will end up with more admissions on OW.

That's one of the greatest Trailers in years, honestly. I literally got goosbumps watching it. I hiope it does really, really well, but I feel like that's a movie that should have opened in winter for some reason. Could have been a great option opver christmas or the holidays in Jan/Feb.

We were expecting a breakout for part 2 and that one never happened, despite the first one being a pretty nice and charming movie. So why would it break out, when the series dropped from movie to movie? But Dreamworks is a quite weird case overall. How to train your Dragon didn't break out. Madagascar topped the franchise with the worst part, while the second even dropped from the first.

I hope this is when people finally understand the difference, that pretty much all Netflix Romcoms (with some exceptions especially in the teen-department) are horribly written, lazy and pretty much always lack chemistry. Ticket to Paradise or ABY are great reminders, that even if the story is not oscar worthy, a great couple of actors with charme and chemistry just make a good time at the theaters.

And that one had Dwayne Johnson only a couple of weeks after Fast 7 reached the prime of the franchise...

I can totally see why Twisters would only do $50m total.
