It's still early. But if Jobs does only 9 mil, I'd blame it on the choice to go limited. A Steve Jobs movie can make money, but you gotta treat it like a mainstream flick as far as marketing goes. The cult of Apple would show up if they knew about it. This is the difference between Fincher and Boyle. Fincher gets big marketing campaigns. Not once did I see the trailer anywhere but at the Angelika (specialty) theater.

This Fall season is reminding me why Fall used to be a bad time to release movies...it still is to some extent. Kid's movies are always going to do well and it seems like the market can bear at least one adult-skewing breakout (this year it's The Martian), but I feel like with less competition some of these other adult films like The Walk or Everest would've done much better. I think Hollywood kinda got carried away after the success of Gravity and others in recent years, thinking the market could carry all of these big movies.

I still read Joblo sometimes, but my god is that an insular site. Nothing but the stereotypical superhero nuts frequent that place, and they're all white hetero men.
