With weak competition in the next two weeks CRA and CR should be able to crawl past 100M.

I could foresee potential of Searching breaking out like Don't Breathe. But now I wonder if it is good for it being pushed closer to The Nun.

Asians seem to rule this August at the BO. The Meg is a partial Chinese production. Mile 22 features Indonesian martial artist. Searching stars John Cho. Not to mention breaking out CRA.

100M total for the Meg!

600+ for I2!!! Late summer leg starts to kick in.

With Ocean's 8 sexy legs, Ocean's 9 and 10 should be under way to make it another trilogy.

So glad that finally TI2 will achieve the adjusted biggest OW ever for animations. Shrek 3 has owned the record for far too long. I hope this bodes well for TS4 next year to be the first animation breaking 200M on opening wknd.

With the darker direction of marketing, I don't think the general audience will be much excited. The movie still looks pretty much redundant. The fact that WB decided to schedule this in October makes it bomb harder. It reminds me of their choice for dumping Geostorm or Pan. Where the Wild Things Are did not reallt break out the way lots of us expect it to do. Second half of October is usually a dead zone for potential blockbuster, unless you have strong sequels like Scary Movie, Jack Ass or HSM. Casual moviegoers will skip this and spend their dollars on the new Halloween movie. Personally, I feel pity for Andy Serkis and there is no going back for him. My best wish is for it to do Tarzan's number.

Life of the Party?

Predictions done.

Not sure if it's comparable to BP. But Frozen made 16M after a 4.4M weekend.

Wow! Wonderful numbers all around. This is the first time in years that I underpredicted all the new openers. 700M for BP! 100M for Rampage!

Count me in as well.

With this great jump, Rampage seems to be more like a family fanfare than VG movies or disaster pic. Second weekend drop should be slim. The only q is whether it will stand against IW firmly and drag on to 100M or crash and burn with 80M finish.

Great Saturday jump for all!! 50 M is still in play for AQP. 8th biggest opener in April. 25 M for RPO. 21M for Blockers. 8M for BP - good for top 13 gross for the 8th wknd

After watching AQP, I felt the setup was pretty much like Signs. It would be great if the film surprises us in a big way and follow Signs trajectory. It looks to be one of the biggest original horror openers of all time

No games for this Easter RPO wknd?

Great predictions as always. Totally agree on Acrimony and A Quiet Place. Did you intentionally omit PR2 from your predictions? Or you foresee it to drop 90% in the 2nd wknd?

I hope no Sat numbers by now means they have a hard time counting all the money BP made yesterday.

The slate this March is super week, compared to last year. Sigh! 27 April could not come faster.

With these projections, TGS+Jumanji will gross 60M+ more than TLJ!

We had such an incredible weekend. Strong numbers all around. When was the last time two films in their third weekend are in top 5 and gross more than their opening weekend? Purely incredible!

Great hold for all holdover despite the storm. Such a sleepy weekend! We only reach page 6 after 50 hours after the Thursday preview is out. Next weekend we probably get there within 50 min or less.

Feels like 2009 when The Blind Side opened against gigantic New Moon. I would not be surprised if it increases next weekend (though it will be hard, given Coco will distract family audiences) For JL, I wish the best of luck. Hopefully not as hard landing as -70% as NM. If it follows NM. That would be painful to see it grossing less than the Avengers's opening weekend.

Would Julia Roberts kill another bad quality DC superheroes pic? Wonder over JL over Thanksgiving, anyone?
