    Yeah, that's what I thought. $321k will probably take it to only about $1.1 million.

    How is Cafe Society going to make $2.1 million from $321k Friday ? One of those numbers is wrong. Good for Bourne though. I was expecting a sub-$50 million opening.

    I am not feeling Fantastic Beasts. The two trailers have been very insipid. There is no real story, the link to Harry Potter seems to be very flimsy and practically no one from the previous movies will be back. $200 million seems like a tall order unless the reviews are out of this world.

    Looks generic as hell.

    I am interested in numbers for Absolutely Fabulous. It is in only 300 theaters but it looks like it is doing very well in big cities.

    Based on early evidence I think GB is behaving like any other (but much more hyped) Melissa McCarthy movie. That's good news for its domestic prospects but bad news for its overseas run.
  7. TLK
    It should have good legs same as other Melissa McCarthy movies.

    All this controversy has made this the most buzzed movie of this month. I just don't see it doing anything under $40 million (Sony's estimate). $55-60 million is likelier.

    I don't think Swiss Army Man is going to expand well if its Weekend performance is an indication. $48k on Friday and only $21k on Sunday.

    90s had good music and terrible movies. Most of them shouldn't even be rewatched let alone be remade into new movies. If you want to remake movies go back to movies from 60s and 70s.

    Will they greenlight a sequel if it makes $600 million WW with only $70 million coming from North America ? I think that will be just too risky.

    How much will Pitch Perfect 3 drop ? I think the best case scenario is a 50% drop.
  13. TLK
    There is no way it will make $500 million WW with a $43 million/ 74 territories opening. $400 million is the best-case scenario with less than $300 million a possibility if it faceplants in the domestic market.

    $1.2-1.3 billion Worldwide is an amazing number but I wonder if Marvel will have to change things up for TA3.1 to reach $1.5 billion next year or will "The Avengers" in the title be worth another $200-300 million on its own ?

    I am thinking that maybe Marvel has peaked domestically. There are tens of millions of people who show up because it is a Marvel movie but there are also tens of millions who have already seen enough Marvel movies to last a lifetime or weren't interested in MCU to begin with. Between the two groups there aren't any agnostics left.

    The Huntsman can still go up to $22-23 million if it plays well with the Saturday/Sunday family crowd but it is probably a money loser at this point.

    So she signed a multi-film deal and is also getting paid for it.
  18. TLK
    She wasn't forced. That's bullshit. Chastain and Blunt were each paid $5 million for this movie. That's not indentured servitude.

    I agree with you that audiences only want to see what they've already seen the year before and the year before that but that's no excuse for some of the shit the studios have put out in recent years. I've no use for much of Disney's slate but they have at least put some effort in their franchise movies.

    A O Scott's review is a brutal indictment of the studio franchise system. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/04/22/movies/review-the-huntsman-a-study-in-hollywoods-overstuffed-playbook.html?smid=tw-nytimesarts&smtyp=cur&_r=0

    Okay, I am going to be slightly negative here. People are going to compare it to MI movies but I feel that MI movies "look" sufficiently different from each other. This looks exactly like any other Bourne movie. That may be the safe thing these days but I hope they are hiding most of the stuff and there is much more to the movie than the trailer is showing.
  22. TLK
    Trailer looked completely generic and something was off about the aesthetics.
  23. TLK
    That's too low. It may also make up to $40 million in China so the OS(+China) will be in the $170-200 million range.
  24. TLK
    How will The Huntsman do in China ? It isn't doing well in Europe but Asia seems solid for it so far.
  25. TLK
    Are they also wrong about the number of screens ? 262 screens seem too low for a big movie like this.
