Nova

Will we get a Saturday update or are we through with updates until Monday when the numbers all come in?

So that means Deadpool should have a strong hold for Sunday.

I am guessing there are sell-outs in your area. You didn't tell us there were none so we assumed everything was sold out.

Deadpool with 1.68M for Friday. Just a 25% drop from last Friday. Will it be over/under $5M for the weekend? Now that's the real question that people need to be asking

Thank you!!

I only saw about 35-50 cars. It was very empty for an early Saturday afternoon. I'm expecting ginormous drops.

Since BKB is at work, I figured I could fill in by reporting that my local theater currently has no sell outs for tonight and that it's actually less than half-full when I passed by it 10 minutes ago.

Between 55M and 60M for the opening weekend. It'll barely make 100M there. And I'm basing that on the fact that audiences in China gave it a 6.9/10. So it wasn't well received but many DC films aren't either.

No. They're using the B CinemaScore that viewers gave it. Yes a lot of people liked it but a lot of people didn't like it. It's a very divisive film hence why it's audience scores across the board have been consistent in that regard. (B CinemaScore, 73% on Flixster, 7.6 on IMDb).

What kind of drops are we talking about here? 25% drops? 30% drops? 50% drops?

For it to make $1.1B it needed some bigger numbers from China than what it's currently getting.

Weekend "may" reach $160M+. Is iJack running this guys Twitter feed?

$165M+ is definitely happening. I have it somewhere between $165M and $175M now.

Okay so estimates are anywhere from $78M to $82M.

That says estimated. We want the real numbers.

If it's right at $80M it's either going to just break $160M or just miss $160M.

I don't even think it's that. I think people want something to talk about. Like with Deadpool people were just shocked at its numbers and it gave them something to talk about. Same with Zootopia. If BvS opens in its normal range it leave us with: okay predictions are correct. And since BvS doesn't look like it's going to exceed expectations people want it to hit lower so they can keep talking about what went wrong and what changes need to be made etc. *There are some folks who want to see it fail and have openly said that as well.

In about an hour or less the real numbers will come out and we will spend another 10-15 pages analyzing them. And it's only Saturday morning!

I agree.

Oh God. This forum as we know it will burn to the ground.

I don't know. If it's $77-78 I have it at $155M. That's assuming it's front loaded of course.

Where is RTH? I'm done with all these numbers that are all over place. I want definite numbers!

Things are going to get interesting around here.

Let's start the not crossing $1B WW topic again.

Possibly. Depends where Deadpool lands. Based on its legs it's looking anywhere from 365-370 maybe a tiny bit more for Deadpool. And we don't know the drops for this movie yet. I think next weekend will give us a better idea of how the legs for this movie are.
