I can actually see it happening sadly enough. There was a woman near us at Central Intelligence that reacted shocked when she saw the R rating at the end of the trailer. She was like "how can a cartoon be an R?"
-
I highly doubt Lights Out has near enough hype to be pulling Purge #s on OW. A leggy Insidious style run seems more likely to me.
-
Lol @ all the doom and gloom all of a sudden for Pets. No way it's missing 300, that's ridiculous. IA5 would have to be a huge hit for that, and it's not even gonna make a dent.

You know it's bad when CS is probably the most accurate reflection of public opinion on a film for once.
-
Answer the call!!!!
-
I guess on the bright side the drop off in attendance won't be anywhere near as extreme as GB1 to GB2.

Star Trek Beyond | 7.22.2016 | Not an Oscar winner.

Yeah, if audiences weren't crazy about STID, the early reception doesn't give me much hope this will be way more liked. -
Maybe because of Kubo and Pete in August. Minions didn't have any August competition.
-
Pets will probably finish between Zoo and IO.
-
Sounds like a big Christian hit.
-
Sad part is there were unlimited opportunities with that film to actually trash it on quality.
-
FUUUUUUCKKKKKK! I was just looking over this week's summer game questions and noticed all the GB benchmarks are asking if they'll open below that #. I answered them all in an "at least" sense.

And speaking of animation domination... at some point tomorrow a 12 year old crown gets snatched from a smelly ogre!!! #vengeancefortoystory3

Would be fun to have a photo finish weekend: GB takes the estimates just so the haters can't make a mountain out of a mole hill on it coming in second in all the weekend headlines, but SLOP takes the actuals so animation domination can continue.
-
I'm torn. I want this to breakout and do really well, but I also want the same for Kubo. Which might be hard if this is dominating the family market.

Reviews look good, but looks like they will be a little worse than STID, which worries me. I think this needed to be a home run like '09 to have a chance at having great WOM and doing much over 150. Gonna say 48/155 as a final prediction for it. -
You know, the only times I ever really saw the previews for Ghostbusters were in front of animated/family movies and then when I saw Ghostbusters I saw previews for Trolls, Pete's Dragon, and Kubo. Kids seem like a strange market for the film to me, but I guess they were going for them?

Don't worry, once #s for GB start hitting it gon' be like:
-
McKinnon and Hemsworth are easily the standouts. McCarthy may as well be sleep walking.
-
So my take on GB is that the movie isn't really funny...but it IS enjoyable. There's nothing really bad about it, and some parts are quite fun. But again, not a funny laugh out loud comedy or anything. Also, I felt the special effects were really good. I wasn't expecting it to be such a visual treat.
-
I felt immensely sorry for the film at that point to be honest. The studio isn't even gonna let it stand on its own, even if the internet somehow would.
-
While driving earlier I legit heard an ad on the radio for GB that quoted a critic as saying "proves ladies can be funny too!!!" and then you hear Wiig saying something along the lines of "so take that boys!!"
-
Didn't you also like BVS? Something about critically panned blockbusters with buff dudes, eh Tele?
-
Your Dad may wanna sleep through August.

Well, it is a remake of their own movie so there's really no way they can "disneyfy" something that's already theirs. So am I to assume you felt this way about TFA then? Honestly Disney is responsible for a huge variety of films these days, seems unfair to write them all off as being cut from the same cloth.
