  1. At my local multiplex, this movie is selling out 15 shows this weekend....
  2. 1. Turtles: 12.5M 2. Me Before You: 7.8M 3. Apocalypse: 6.6M (CRUMBLING) 4. Alice: 3.2M 5. Angry Birds: 2.6M 6. Civil War: 2.1M 7. Popstar: 1.8M 8. Neighbors 2: 1.5M 9. Jungle Book: 1.1M 10. Nice Guys: 1M
  3. The fuck are you talking about? You are referring to franchises which have 1 movie every three or four years, not a genre that has 10+ major movies per year.
  4. If Suicide Squad is a big breakout later this summer, then I think it's time to say that superhero franchise fatigue is kicking in and that people want to see fresh superhero films, rather than endless sequels. That would account for the constant drops of every superhero sequel (even the well-liked ones like Avengers and X-Men) and why Guardians of the Galaxy, Deadpool and (theoretically) Suicide Squad have been the biggest breakout superhero movies in the past couple of years.
  5. yeah Sully should do well. All Mag7 has is Denzel, he's obviously a solid draw but his movies mostly gross between 60 and 100 M.
  6. I find the whole character annoying to begin with, in the movie there's this whole scene about how she can only inspire people when she gets naked. she is a ridiculous character, that poster / marketing is just the cherry on top.
  7. How is The Magnificent Seven a "guaranteed hit"? It's a western... Storks should do OK, I forgot about Sully oops. Don't see any reason why Deepwater Horizon should do well. It's not got anything going for it, and has several things against it (sea-disaster movies, public hostility towards the events)
  8. June is gonna drop even harder than May compared to last year. July should improve though - Pets, Ghostbusters, Ice Age, Star Trek and Bourne is significantly stronger than Minions/Ant-Man/Mission Impossible. August will be a giant leap upwards, September, October and November should be stable, and December will decrease but only because of TFA's gargantuan success.
  9. The franchise needs re-invigorating. They might find a new audience if they used this poster..
  10. I am gonna win the Euromillions, take a trip to California next weekend, and buy $70 million of Warcraft tickets.
  11. so, based on the idea that sequels are dropping like flies, we can all expect WARCRAFT to be opening to 100M+, yes?
  12. Holy crap, Me Before You is doing REALLY well.
  13. with 8 down already and the following: Turtles Warcraft Central Intelligence Dory Indepence day Secret Life of Pets Ghostbusters Star Trek Bourne 5 Suicide Squad Sausage Party Storks Dr Strange Fantastic Beasts Moana Rogue One Assassin's Creed That's 25 which is the record.
  14. Because it was terrible, and as we know Ethan, only terrible movies get sequels.
  15. "The film is looking at a $25 million drop at the opening weekend. It will struggle to match the original's $65 million. This is due to Finding Dory hitting cinemas just two weeks later." What the fuck? The Wrap just a bunch of clowns dribbling over their keyboards.
  16. TMNT, Warcraft and NYSM2 are all poss ible and that's just in the next couple weeks alone.
  17. It is not a genre of film (obviously), I more meant as a genre or category within the public perception and from a marketing standpoint. Animated movies, at least family-oriented ones, are sold as being very similar, despite their vast chasms of difference.
