after the 2016 talking animals and animation craze, 2017 seem a much more calmer performance for animation, none of the animation break $200m at this point......while last year we had zootopia and dory. This is much like 2010 and 2011, where 2010 were filled with animation boom but took a step back in 2011

now we have 4 months in 2017 that kick off with well-received CBM March-Logan May-GOTG2 June-WW July-SMH next could be, nov-thor 3

the thread title led me into thinking that typhoon has been striking Hong Kong for nearly a year

TOMATOMETER 60% Average Rating: 5.6/10 Reviews Counted: 53 Fresh: 32 Rotten: 21 DM3 score is about drop to rotten range, but I doubt there would be any change to our expectation on OW figure

I bet somebody is going to say So much for Rotten Tomato......

I remember how forum get excited about that $2.1m preview, if BD really scored that low on opening wed, it would be.....

then never mind then, if it wasn't a serious, words carry no tone, making harder to interpret

transformers 5's drop.......

why're you make it personal?

BD's number maybe great, holds could be phenomenal, but sometime holding good doesn't mean your theater count wouldn't be shed if your absolute number of box office is not huge, this is especially true if the market is competitive, just like hidden figure, it held so well into march, but its absolute number isn't big enough for it to keep its screen through insane march..... Theater manager still would cut your showtimes if can't posted great figure despite holding very strong

Honestly I don't get you, I know that is QT, in pulp fiction

War for the planet of the apes!!! WB, make it be the next Mad Max!!

Baby driver could the 2017's we're millers, bridesmaids, the help Not effect driven drama that build on audience and critic's hype, and have a great leg and gross more than $150m

could next tuesday be even better given 4th July? It's been 11 years since last July 4th fell on tuesday, and in 2006, discount tuesday wasn't even started or popular as they are as today

the dominion day for WW are numbered, after SMH, the market would be very crowded with many movie with high RT score, WW is not longer the great choice in marketplace, still , the dominion for WW is longer than I'd expected. next tuesday is 4th july, could be another nice tuesday

Rise and Dawn had been nominated in oscar for best visual effect but both lost to different films, If war really get nominated again, I wish they would win for this outing! If Jungle book, about talking animals could win, why not war for the planet of the apes!??!

illumination doesn't need to have great review to ride success, they don't even need oscar nomination for branding...... if their success were to persist, I could see them being the oscar-less pixar

I guess this is one of the universal's strategy.... by using the following tactic:

the average rating suggest that it's vulnerable....once other harsher critic come in

Despicable me 3: TOMATOMETER 81% Average Rating: 5.9/10 Reviews Counted: 21 Fresh: 17 Rotten: 4 the average rating just 5.9, could be rotten if it's in aggregate term, meaning not too good either

Given that next monday is the day before public holiday, WW should have another fantastic hold on next monday, $2.5m and this sunday, WW could too, has a softer dip than usual....

17% drop from monday, awful.....

baby driver is another testing for the capability of RT

Its chances of exceeding ¥2 billion ($20 million) are becoming higher and higher, and it'll have to suffer some serious drops over the next couple weeks to miss the milestone. It's likely to out-gross Kong: Skull Island to become the highest-grossing film of 2017 for Warner Bros.. >Beauty and the Beast might have to settle for another close second place finish, but its tenth weekend is one of the 10 biggest of all-time. Also, Disney will have reason to celebrate today as well, since the film will out-gross Alice in Wonderland (¥11.80 billion) to become their highest-grossing live-action film in Japan -- if it doesn't happen with actuals tomorrow, it's going to happen on Monday. >Hacksaw Ridge came in a little lower than I was expecting but if it stays above ¥100 million with actuals, it's a win for the film and a bigger win for distributor Kino Films. Japan will become either its second or third biggest international market behind China (very impressive there), and maybe the UK. as per corpse. weekend actual will come in later i think

don't worry, dunkirk, apes, homecoming will help to catch up
