what's wrong with hacksaw ridge figure??? it's been trending very abnormally these few days, it jumped more than 500% on thrusday but collapse on friday, then again a 300% surge on saturday, from week to week base, it drop 69% from last friday but increase over last saturday!!!!! what the hell is going on??
Not 100% on this, but I know that Regal was doing a Film Festival of the Best Picture noms but they weren't showing all the movies on all the days. So those may have been the days they were showing Hacksaw and the drops were the days it was off the schedule.

I mean, I hate to be the hair splitter, but 50SD is a romance-drama budgeted at 55 million and rated R. That's the definition of mid-budget adult-aimed drama. You can hate the movie and think it's terrible, but that doesn't make it a different TYPE of movie. You can say you want "Good" versions of that type of movie, but I long ago learned not to try and foist my definition of taste as definitive. People dig what they dig, and studios make the movies that make money. This is the version of that type of movie that makes money (based on a pre-existing property, female-skewing [because women like to go to movies too and have stuff that isn't just dudes getting shot in the face]). And hey, if you want a version that might be more your boat, Hidden Figures and La La Land's runs say what up.

I'm with Baumer. 50SD is going to do around 400-450 WW off a 55 production budget. Universal is doing backflips at that profit margin, just like they did when they dropped the first one. Somewhat related note: all those think pieces about how we never get mid-range stuff for adults anymore? We had two dropped this weekend and both are going to be very successful for their studios (50SD and JW2)

Just to throw out an alternate viewpoint on why the number came in at 120: Perhaps people who hadn't done pre-sale tickets were deterred from coming out. They felt that all the shows would be super crowded and they could get out Saturday/Sunday after the opening day crazies had dissipated. I'm going to say it's about 15% bump today from non-preview Friday (which seems like it's become pretty standard for most of these tentpoles), so about 73, maybe 75 if it bumps big with families. And ultimately, this is all just insanity in terms of numbers so let's just enjoy the ride, ya?

Question for those of you who know: why would George Lucas renounce all of this completely? He could've easily still retained the rights to SW but allow JJ and the writers to steer the franchise into something separate from the PT. I mean, just because he has the rights doesn't mean that he cannot allow anyone else to build this new chapater of the SW saga. Not that he needs the money or anything, but couldn't he just let JJ do their thing while still owning the property? I am not saying, "OMG, why did George Lucas abandon us??"; I am just curious about his selling the property. Would it be such hard work for him just to sit back and rake in
themore money while JJ did the heavy lifting?Pure speculation but it was likely a combo of: 1) wanting to retire; 2) Disney offering 4 BILLION dollars; 3) Disney wanting to make sure that they had full creative control over where the franchise went in the future.
-
That number is ridiculous, but it looks like the spillover is helping everything including the holdovers. So everyone wins this weekend.

I don't know, I always figured the rough floor for IO was like 70-75 (in line with the adjusted numbers for Wall-E/Up). I certainly never saw anything below 65 (Brave/Cars 2 level). With the preview numbers, I'd say something between 75-85 is a safe bet, with 90-95 possible (Incredibles kind of success). For the record, though, JW will still probably win the weekend by coming in somewhere between 95-100 depending on the Father's Day hold.
-
To attempt to move the conversation back to numbers, I'd say the 2.7 for digital previews is good. Interstellar is going to suffer from the fact that, due to its length, it will be hard for theaters to get in a ton of showings. I know that at my local theater last night Big Hero 6 had around 5 or 6 preview screenings while Interstellar only had 4. Still, all around these are good numbers to start with and I'm excited to see a weekend that delivers on its promise for both openers.

I guess I don't understand the need for the back and forth on respective quality. I mean, I can identify why I didn't enjoy Turtles and the issues I have with it on a storytelling level. But it's making money because a certain audience has responded to it. On the flip side I could rattle off why I thought GOTG was awesome, but I thought Scott Pilgrim was equally awesome and that made no money so clearly my opinion is not some be-all end-all powerful force that makes things a hit. Let us all just be happy that there are movies doing well at the back end of this summer because otherwise everything has underperformed.
