Are those 3day or 4day?
-
Hmm
Bad Boys: 29-32m 3day
Doolittle: 18m 3day

don't be dense, Little women at 105M won't be a bigger success than Downton Abbey at 95 (especially since it costed twice as much)
95 is less than 100m. That’s just a fact. You said it made 100m in your answer and it didn’t.

Little Women is doing really well. If it finishes at 100M domestic... when was the last time a period drama grossed that?
Downton Abbey in September
Abbey missed 100m

I'd say one is a hit, the other an okay performer. Given the pedigree of all involved, the good will of the press, and the release date, I feel like it should have done a bit better.

Ok, you might be right (I hope you are, seems important for you).
The film did OK anyway, whether it crosses 100M or not, even though I have to admit that I'm unimpressed with the numbers since day 1.
2nd week-end had me briefly hoping for some kind of breakthru run à la Knives Out, but it doesn't seem like it will happen.
This sounds more like a you problem than anything else. The budget is 40m, it’s already crossed 100m WW. I’m not sure how much it’ll finish WW but surely over 150m at this rate.
Little Women a female-centric period film that skews older. Knives Out was a fun conceptual mystery thriller with broader, wider appeal. The holds have been outstanding and made it the 2nd biggest original film of the year. It’s not fair to compare these performances. Both are successes

Not according to Hollywood Reporter, although they could be wrong of course. Gold Derby has it at number 8, so it could depend on how many movies they put in the category this year.
And sorry, but it is objectively correct that if the film doesn't rectify next week-end, and drops another 40%+, 100M is gone. That's all I was saying.
No it isn’t. You’re overlooking the weekday numbers. A 40% drop gives it around 4.6m weekend which isn’t even considering the Monday MLK gross. 5-6m 4day is happening. Probably more since another 40% drop looks unlikely. 1917 + Just Mercy + Like A Boss flooded the marketplace and competed for similar audiences. Bad Boys 2 is a different demo and Doolittle is an inevitable family flop.
Which, again, this is just 2M off from Wolf of Wall Street’s 4day MLK weekend. It’s not falling drastically behind to warrant concern. In fact, it tends to outperform it during the weekday. Yet you think it’s somehow not making an additional 20m in the next 2 months? Even a dud like Walter Mitty added another 8m from now until it closed

Alarming drop for Little Women. It's gonna need to rectify next week-end otherwise 100M is gone. And since there's a pretty strong possibility that it gets snubbed at the Oscars (save for Ronan)...
This is objectively incorrect. It fell a bit more than expected but it’s only 4m off Wolf of Wall Street in current timeframe (78-74m). Only needs like 26m for 100m. Wolf grossed 38m from now to close. Little Women should do like 30-34. The barrage of new releases set it back some but it should stabilize during weekday
It made PGA which is most important Oscar precursor which means it has a good shot at BP
-
LW had a bigger than expected drop. Wolf of Wall Street had a 2.7m Friday. I guess the crowded weekend set it back some

A+ for Just Mercy
C for Underwater

1917 is nearly sold out at my Pitt Cinemark. All that’s left for the 7pm show is the front rows
Comparing it to other theaters, it’s nearly sold out tonight at the AMC, only handful of front row seats Ieft-

well, WOWS was also a hard R 3 hour epic of sex, drugs and debauchery.
And it still made 116m and held well? Opened higher than LW on XMas during a similar 5day timeframe

They’re way too high on Like a Boss. That’s a 8m OW for sure

Too high for Star Wars. Probably too low for Little Women. Think it’ll come closer to 13m
Grudge could go either way. The WOM is obviously poor though

Friday 1st Trend
SW: TRoS: $10.5-11mn
Jumanji 2: $8.5mn
Little Women: $4.25mn
Frozen 2: $4mn
Good for Little Women.
In 2013, Wolf of Wall Street’s 2nd Friday was 4.3m. Finished with 13.2m over the weekend. LW could (should?) pass it

Did the audience hate the movie? I'm hearing many bad things from a ton of people.
Yeah, lots of laughs during the scares and the ending is really incomplete. Reminds me of Devil Inside lol
It’s also not much of a horror film. There’s some jump scares and creepy imagery but it’s more of a mystery/detective story. The pacing could annoy audiences

The Grudge sucked but theater was packed.

Would have liked 5m for LW but still above 4.5m is solid

I saw Bad Boys at 4 and maybe 10ish people were there but the 7 show was selling very well
The movie isn’t very good but very generic and similar to Hobbs and Shaw.
