    What an AWFUL May

     

    :puke:

    Worst since 2006.

    Next May looks pretty barren, too. Granted, there's two possible $425 million+ DOM performers there (Avengers 3, Han Solo), but I'd almost say Ocean's 8 and Barbie might be two films to consider moving into May (Ocean's 8 swapping with Life of the Party, Barbie as counterprogramming to Han Solo over Memorial Day weekend). Given how crowded May 2013 was, it would certainly be possible for those two films to thrive amidst heavy competition.

     

    But next Memorial Day should be at least respectable in size. If Pirates 5 can do $75-80 million 4-day, Han Solo should at least do $130-150 million 4-day ($180-225 million 4-day being my initial range given SW7, Rogue One and the popularity of Lord/Miller's directorial style).

  3. Agreed.

     

    June 2017 looks to be the most well-rounded June slate since 2012/2013 while July 2017 should be able to keep pace with past Julys. August 2017 will likely go near or even below August 2015's dismal numbers.

     

    My guess:

    I remember following the box office on and off at that time and no one was giving it a chance to win the weekend. Pretty out of nowhere huge opening since everyone expected Matrix Reloaded to dominate its second weekend as well.

     

     

     

    Sounds like Bruce Almighty was the American Sniper of comedies - just an out-of-nowhere monster OW in a genre that usually relies upon WOM.

  6. If Baywatch and Pirates 5 both underperform, at least June 2017 is looking strong and well-rounded.

     

    1. Wonder Woman looks to be in prime position to be the first major breakout hit this year (possible $125 million+ OW) since Alien and Pirates 5 aren't wowing audiences and Captain Underpants may get a $30-40 million OW solely by being the first major kids movie since March 31st.
    2. The Mummy should at least do ID42 numbers if it's not awful. Add in OS and it'll at least be enough not to be a bomb.
    3. Cars 3 should improve on Cars 2 since early screenings are pointing to it being the best film of the series while both All Eyez on Me and Rough Night have a lot of sleeper hit potential.
    4. Transformers 5 should ride the July 4th holiday to $150-170 million DOM - considering its huge appeal OS, that'll still result in the $750 million+ WW necessary for a 6th film to get the greenlight.
    5. While they'll make most of their money in July, Despicable Me 3 should at least come close to Minions and finish above the original. $275-325 million DOM is a solid finish while The House could either bomb hard or be the first comedy to do $100 million DOM this summer. Baby Driver is niche, so Nice Guys numbers are about where I expect it to go.

     

     

  7. Since Alien and Baywatch seem likely to miss the mark, I guess it's time to update projections:

    haha... welcome to BOT, the place where TDKR is #1 2012

    I don't think Star Wars/CEO3K are equivalent to TDKR :P but I agree #1-#3 will almost always be a summer blockbuster or the Best Picture winner from that year.

     

    1997 makes more sense to do next before 1977, though, since they're easier to access via streaming, cable and the $3.74 bin at Wal-Mart.

     

    Although I'd prefer 1982, 1992 or 2002 myself. Maybe we'll get around to a year ending in 2 soon?

    This month has been so weak outside of GOTG and I'm really starting to doubt next week as well. Looks like it's continuing the streak of weak Memorial Day weekends.

     

    oh well. Leaves the market wide open for WW to explode.

    It leaves room for June in general to explode.

     

    June 2017's lineup is arguably stronger/more well-rounded than June 2012/June 2013.

     

    Despicable Me 3: $105 million/$310 million

    Wonder Woman: $100 million/$255 million

    Cars 3: $70 million/$220 million

    Transformers - The Last Knight: $50 million 3-day/$80 million 5-day/$165 million

    The Mummy: $40 million/$110 million

    Captain Underpants: $35 million/$100 million

    All Eyez on Me: $35 million/$90 million

    The House: $25 million/$85 million

    Rough Night: $15 million/$50 million

    Baby Driver: $10 million 3-day/$17.5 million 5-day/$45 million

    It Comes At Night: $10 million/$30 million

    Megan Leavitt: $3.5 million/$7.5 million

     

    That would be roughly $1.5 billion if you add in all the limited/platform releases. Considering there's no JW or Dory-sized mega-blockbuster on the horizon unless DM3/WW surprise us all, that's a remarkably balanced slate.

  13. If it weren't for Cars 3 two weeks later and DM3 four weeks later, this could probably do $120-150 million DOM. Now Angry Birds/Epic numbers are probably the ceiling since it'll drop 55%+ its 3rd and 5th weekends.

     

    Fox should have swapped this with Wimpy OR released it over Memorial Day weekend.

    An uninteresting week IMO. They need to start opening stronger movies in the second week of May, The Great Gatsby opened to $50m in IM3's second weekend, I don't know why everyone seems to be so scared of the Marvel movies and giving them unnecessary space. It sucks the momentum out of the box office. Compare it to March, when Logan was followed by Kong which was followed by Beauty and the Beast which was followed by Power Rangers which was followed by Boss Baby and Ghost in the Shell. The market will totally expand for movies people want to see.

    They're following that model from May 26 until August 4th.

     

    May 26th: POTC5 ($70 million+ 4-day) and Baywatch ($30 million+ 4-day)

    June 2nd: Wonder Woman ($75 million+ OW) and Captain Underpants ($25 million+ OW)

    June 9th: The Mummy ($40 million+ OW)

    June 16th: Cars 3 ($55 million+ OW) and All Eyez on Me ($20 million+ OW)

    June 23rd: Transformers 4 ($45 million+ OW/$70 million+ 5-day)

    June 30th: Despicable Me 3 ($95 million+ OW) and The House ($25 million+ OW)

    July 7th: Spider-Man - Homecoming ($110 million+ OW)

    July 14th: War for the Planet of the Apes ($70 million+ OW)

    July 21st: Dunkirk ($40 million+ OW) and Girls Trip ($20 million+ OW)

    July 28th: The Emoji Movie ($35 million+ OW)

    August 4th: The Dark Tower ($40 million+ OW)

     

    Other than the last four weekends of summer, everything looks solid from Memorial Day on. At the very least, June 2017 is much stronger than last June's lineup (Dory being the only film to finish above $130 million DOM vs. a possible 4 releases doing it this June - WW, Cars 3, TF5, DM3)

    when I say it's like Deadpool in spirit, I mean it makes fun of genre conventions but deep down it's still that dork fantasy film that it is trying to mock.

    It's not like meta-humor can't work. Monty Python and The Muppets were both practically built on cheeky winks to the audience. The Princess Bride is in the vein of the Muppets' brand of poking fun - a biting yet gentle ode to old-fashioned entertainment/storytelling.

     

    The Princess Bride is a solid film IMO, but I agree on Deadpool being one of the most overrated films of the 21st century (Inception and Avatar being #1 and #2 :P)

    I know I been called crazy with my predictions for The Star but if it looks good and is good to the GA, I can see it over Coco.

    November 2017 just looks all-around strong. It reminds me of a larger November 2012. 

     

    I could see:

    Justice League - $150 million/$310 million

    Coco - $65 million/$255 million 

    Thor: Ragnorak - $105 million/$245 million

    The Star - $45 million/$185 million 

    Murder on the Orient Express - $50 million/$155 million 

    Daddy's Home 2 - $25 million/$80 million

    A Bad Moms Christmas - $15 million/$50 million 

     

     

    The Star is the wild-card IMO. It could shock us all and do $225-275 million DOM (causing Coco to do 'only' $150-180 million DOM), or it could do Storks numbers and get its own WWW thread.

    How?

    $38-41 million this next weekend would put it on pace for $395-410 million DOM.

     

    Given the jump in actuals these past two weekends, I could potentially see a 35-40% drop next weekend since Alien is R-rated, EE is a teen romance and Wimpy 4 will possibly only open to $6 million.

     

    POTC5 will be paired with it in double-features, so that should help it gain another strong hold over Memorial Day (likely still in the top 3, possibly top 2 if Baywatch underperforms).

     

    It'll likely drop 54-57% its fifth weekend, but if it gets a sub-50% drop the following weekend and has a tiny drop alongside Cars 3/Father's Day (Disney holdovers tend to get a boost if another Disney film opens Father's Day weekend), $400-405 million DOM could happen if Disney pushes it.

  19. Unfortunately, the only two 1987 films I've not seen yet that are available on Netflix and Hulu were:

    14. Withnail & I (1987)

     

  20. Don't even think I've seen 25 films from 1987. Even weirder since I've seen more from 1986 and 1988. Here's the 21 I've seen so far (not an actual ranking). Any suggestions?

    I think people are misjudging how well the Star can play with the religious crowd and how well it can cross-over to the not as religious as well.

    Since it has quite a few non-religious celebrities and a major studio behind it, I think it could be a kid-friendly equivalent to Blind Side or American Sniper if the film actually turns out to be a solid, heartwarming Christmas movie.
