That number for Snatched is fine, actually. Most of its target audience (adult women) will check it out over the weekend, especially on Mother's Day where it'll probably stay flat.

 

If it hits the target this weekend it's going to have  a 4+ multiplier this w/e.  Mother's Day multiplier last year was 5.7...  Hello My Name is Doris was 4.5

King Arthur should do 16M and Snatched should do 18-19M.  Not a good weekend.

 

No but both numbers would be great for my Derby.

$175m was the latest report from Deadline, with the reshoots it's not that surprising

 

[Nova]

Those numbers are horrendous. I know that Snatched will have a strong Mother's Day but that preview number is ugly if you were expecting $20M+. Probably looking at $18M. 

 

At this point who cares about King Arthur...that one was DOA before preview numbers even happened. 

[CJohn]

Snatched is lucky because it is gonna have a crazy Sunday.

 

King Arthur is going below The Great Wall. Crazy.

Legend of the Sword is no Legend of Tarzan.

Spoiler

The V is missing.

Hot Pursuit had a 3.1x in 2015. 

 

Disappointing if Snatched misses $20m.

All the signs were there that it wasn't good such as the multiple release date moves and reshoots.

I'm super glad I removed Snatched from my preseason now.

When one of the producers of your movie pretty much says "we once had big franchise plans for this but now we're just gonna sweep this one under a rug" a few months before your movie even opens, that's when you know you're doomed.

In Snatched's favor it's a Mother/Daughter relationship and Goldie also brings in the older demographic.

KA was tracking at 25M. Reviews really killed it...

[DAR]

Oof not good for King Arthur.  Snatched should do okay.

[ChipDerby]

I'd say that KA number puts this directly in the sights of a $16 mil OW.

[DAJK]

Just please please please let snatched go over 20M. And Arthur over 17

Just let both combined make over $40 million.

 

I am getting killed in the summer game.

Please guardian, save the weekend

 I'm amazed that WB gave Guy Richie 175M for this unnecessary movie

Let's see how he'll ruin Aladdin in 2019.

Disney will need to keep Guy Ritchie on a very short leash for Aladdin.
