Yikes, if this falls on the low end of that range it could miss $90M for the weekend.

The Box Office Buzz and Tracking Thread: Electric Boogaloo
SoSaysI replied to grim22's topic in Numbers and Data
Agree. It doesn't seem to have $150M+ type buzz but I also can't see it opening below Thor and It. -

No, he just posted that he counted 11.4 for JL. So that is actually below those films. -

I would actually say the evidence shows that there is no way WW is doing anywhere near $31 million in previews. -
Not saying it will happen again but GOTG has been underpredicted every weekend based on early Friday numbers.
-
Overseas or world wide? This isn't getting close to 1.4 billion.
-
That sounds like a horrendous idea even if this is going to clear $500 mil domestically and over a billion worldwide. The Beauty and the Beast story is very self contained. Where exactly is there to branch out?
-
Go take a look at the drops from Sunday to Monday for January 9 from 2011.
-
That drop for Rogue One from Sunday's number seems very normal when looking at the Sunday to Monday drops for the same day and date from 2011.
-
I have to say I find it hilarious that the Avatar fans are the on a that criticize another movie the most for having an unoriginal plot when that movie's plot is the same of a ton of movies that have come before it and every character in the film is a cliche.
-
Based on what? The kids I saw it with (10 and 12) loved it and it seems like exit polling said kids liked it as well.
-
That might be true but Potter movies have been more frontloaded than Star Wars films.
-
Yeah, I'd be very interested to see how Rogue One is holding on day 2 in Australia. That is probably actually the best indicator we have for how the rest of this weekend will go in the US. Obviously a great number doesn't mean Rogue One will do great the rest of the weekend here or vice versa but that is probably the best predictor we can have for the rest of this weekend.
-
No it doesn't. But what are your counter examples? This is uncharted territory since this is the first Star Wars film that is not part of the main series. Why would this be more frontloaded than Twilight films?
-
I tend to agree. I don't see how this goes higher than Batman v. Superman or CA3. I think a number in that range is still possibly in play but that is almost certainly the high end.
-
This same thing could have been said for Fantastic Beasts like a month ago.
-
We don't have actual numbers yet.
-
Godzilla was a pretty big hit and this will be a big hit. So despite your sarcasm, yes, he is off to a good start in regards to blockbusters. Russia wasn't big for TFA either.
-
While the other overseas numbers may be indicative of how this will do around the world and in the USA, Russia is irrelevant. TFA wasn't really that big there and wasn't well liked which is obviously not the case in most countries.

MOANA | 394.6 M overseas ● 643.3 M worldwide
SoSaysI replied to kayumanggi's topic in International Box Office
Especially since it is an infinitely better movie than anything Illumination has made. -
Don't forget that he also created quite possibly the dumbest club ever to be created on this board with his Fox to beat Disney in 2016 club when Fox is going to lose to Disney this year by well over $1 billion and Disney was already guaranteed to beat Fox by the time he started that club.
-
That guy is a troll or stupid and all of his posts reflect that.
-
Maybe but people also used Jurassic World and the Force Awakens success to project that Independence Day would do huge numbers this year.
-
WB's marketing team deserves huge raises for getting people interested in their horrible movies this year. Incredible job by them.
-
Agreed. While the critic reviews for this haven't been good so far, they aren't bad enough where they would have made people decide not to see the film if there was legitimate excitement and buzz for this. Every piece of marketing made this movie look as boring and wooden as possible.
