I'm not saying it'll have an amazing drop, but I don't see 80% for its second weekend at all? Like the only comparable was the 2009 Friday the 13th, which dealt with the 13th on its Friday and to an extent Valentine's Day the next day. That's some big holidays to help boost the film's opening, and it's not like Halloween will be over tomorrow. There's sure to be some people who will visit the film next week to get into the Halloween spirit. A drop in the 70s makes more sense.

Just got back from it. Me and the two other people in the audience were all laughing our asses off. I wish it was 2010 again, so that this movie would actually make the money it deserves. Pity that.

Deadline Top 10

Sales seem pretty soft in Philly, at least when I did a quick scan yesterday. I guess Americans just have a comedy problem? But I also acknowledge this isn't a pre-sales driven film, we should get a clearer picture on Monday, blah blah blah. Hopefully it does well of course.

Didn't notice any of those and I don't participate in the Derby. I just remember seeing a bunch of people saying it'll do like 35M or 40M. Guess I'm wrong tho ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Feel like Remember Me is the only movie that nobody has ever seen in full, but everybody miraculously knows what the ending to the film is.

I mean all things considered, for a maligned conclusion that's following up a despised predecessor and is dealing with big direct competition from Smile, I think only a few million less than Halloween Kills is pretty darn good. Way ahead of the 35M predictions everybody, including me, had going into the weekend. And it's still midday Deadline. We could still see an increase from these projections tomorrow morning
