Gitesh comparing this number to Kong and Alien. I would say Kong is a better example. Alien was really frontloaded.

Rarely you'll get such a frontloaded movie though. That basically only appealed to fans of the games and none else so it's not a fair comparison. I think this does over 30M.

 

We'll see.

At the same time, The Mummy‘s Thursday night is higher than Jack Reacher: Never Go Back ($1.325M at 2,850 venues), The Edge of Tomorrow ($1.8M) and Universal’s Oblivion which grossed $1.1M from midnight shows.

 

Edge of Tomorrow released June 6, around the same time as this film, with 28m OW. I think 30m is still on the table.

Also this weekend, A24 is opening their horror title It Comes at Night in 2,500 theaters. It made $700K last night at 2,000 theaters. The movie has been greatly embraced by critics at 85% certified fresh and could potentially hit $10M. The movie directed by Trey Edward Shults was financed by A24 for a cost of $5M.

 

Bleecker Street has the Kate Mara war drama Megan Leavey which industry estimates figure will gross $2M at 1,944 locations. The Gabriela Cowperthwaite-directed title currently has a 78% Rotten Tomatoes fresh score.

I think that's a more apt comparison.  Should hit about 35-36M then, in that case.  Which would be good.

Kong was in March though, this is in Summer.

 

I think around 30-32 million is what we're looking at.

It's all fun and games this weekend, until a historical 2nd weekend drop occurs next week. 

 

Won't happen

[Plain Old Tele]

So of course I listened to the naysayers and went under 30m with the weekly questions.

No. 

I always assumed he was just a child, considering the pretty colors of Valerian get him hyped....

 

 

 

Even though Im only a grade above him...

(minor spoilers for WW, basically one of the fun scenes that's been getting buzz was mostly improv-ed):

That's Goddamn incredible and unbelievable. The scene goes for quite a while, too.

Well, I just became a senior, so.....

 

Still got a year left.

Second week I've forgotten to do the Summer Game questions.

 

[75Live]

kind of a meh number, but still good considering it looked like it could have been worse

Yep, I did the same for my Survivor game and I was already regretting it this morning before the numbers were even out.

That's all of us. Trust me if I was done I'd be having a nervous breakdown (well not that I'm not having a nervous breakdown but whatever)

[Daxtreme]

Let's get WW over $50M this week-end -- I'm going tonight!

To be fair, it's not a good number, it just doesn't look as bad as it could've been considering how little it seems to have in its favor. $29-30M is where I see it landing.
