Should be around a 28% drop for MI5 this weekend.

I dunno, I feel like it probably didn't get nearly as bad of reception as TS by those who did bother to see it. So maybe a sequel could stay flat. Big goals, lol.

It will be so bizarre to see a big budget sequel made that we know will only gross like 75m DOM.

I wonder if RN can hit 200+ in China? GP made 100m there 4 years ago before the market got so huge.

That's nice and all, but the title won't fly with DOM GA. All I'm saying.

OWs tend to be fairly irrelevant for YA adaptations, the multis end up similar. 2.4-2.7x, except the likes of HP and Twilight which were lower.

4 people in the world are rejoicing.

Even the Wachowski's would veto this movie title for being too niche.

The big difference there being Divergent got a 2.7x multi vs Maze Runner's 3.1x. That was a crazy high multi for the genre, people obviously like it much more than the average YA movie. Is there even another YA adaptation since the Twilight craze that got a 3x?

This for sure won't flop. The first had one of the best YA movie multis ever. Should be lots of goodwill for this.

All sub 10m. Every single one.

I think all 3 are breaking out that weekend. 35-45 for ST, 40-50 for Everest, 20-25 for Black Mass.

6) 21 Jump Street 165m

I honestly won't be surprised if it goes as high as 13m. Lack of any competition is going to give it some killer holds for the next month I think.

Looking over the release schedule on BOM, and we are about to be graced by a brand new Hayden Christensen performance.

Efron isn't even a draw on his own, so I don't know why it would open to anymore than 10m. Sinister should be our biggest opener until the 9/18 weekend, sad as that is.

I actually really love Outkast's soundtrack to Idlewild (never saw the movie). I know it got lackluster reception and sales for them, but I thought it was an interesting route for them. Mutron Angel is a stunning track. Insane to believe that was their last album from nearly a decade ago.

Lmfao. The Brothers Grimm and Sin City 2 are literally the only ones I've ever seen. And not in theaters either.

Cause movies like Hitman and AU would be doomed regardless of opening dates. So they're just dumping.

1) Will any opener break 15 million? NO 2) Will SOC fall less than 62%? YES 3) Will Sinister be the largest grossing film of the openers? YES 4) Will Man From UNCLE fall more than 45%? YES 5) Will Hitman make more than American Ultra? YES 6) Will Ant-Man and Minions both fall less than 40%? YES 7) Will FF stay in the top 10? YES 8) Will FF drop more than 60%? NO 9) Will Rogue Nation gross more than at least two of the openers? YES 10) Will any film increase more than 100% on Friday? YES 11) Will any film increase more than 50% on Saturday? YES 12) Will Vacation decrease more than 7% on Thursday? YES 10/12 3000 11/12 5000 12/12 7000 What finishes in spots 2 Sinister 2 3 Rogue Nation 4 UNCLE 5 Hit Man 7 Ant Man 2000 each 5000 bonus if all 5 correct Bonus 1: What will Compton make on Saturday? 13.015 Bonus 2: What will Minions drop % wise this weekend...3 decimal spots... 32.950

Yeah, arguably the best themed land Disney or any park has ever created, which is some high praise from a theme park junkie like me (although bear in mind I haven't ever been to Tokyo DisneySea which I know most who have say is the best theme park in the world). On that topic and a more related note to this thread, I'm interested to see how the just announced Toy Story land at the Hollywood Studios in Disney World will pan out. The one concept art we got of it looks good, but I'm not blown away yet or anything:

I was surprisingly into this for the first two acts. The three leads played well off of each other. First time I've seen anything to remember from Hammer or Cavill's acting. Some nifty scenes that were unexpected and fresh for the genre and the plot was unfolding nicely. Had some big problems with the third act though. The plot turns felt a little too pat and I was mistakenly hoping it was leading to something more intriguing than what it was. Then Ritchie's over-indulgence in his stylistic flourishes manifested in a big way in that last act. There was one action/chase scene near the end that was just a disaster of execution. Too bad, this could have been a real hidden gem for me if it had delivered on the promising first two acts. Although it still ended up being better than it looked.

No. Many of us diehard Pixar fans gripe about them doing so many. But then again if they're TS3 quality and aren't just cash grabs like Cars 2, then I guess there's nothing to be upset about.

All I'll say on that casting call is if Beyonce is specifically listed as a B type that pretty much waves the red flag of racism playing at least a part when that was written.

Damn Baumer, you got kinda brutal with a lot of those week 16 questions. All of these were like right on the cusp of yes or no: 6) Will any film in the top 10 fall less than 30%? NO (by 0.7% for Ant-Man. Grr....) 7) Will any film in the top 10, excluding FF, fall more than 45%? YES (by 0.1 freakin percent for The Gift. Shit Mother Fucker!!!) 8) Will Minions make more than Ant-Man? NO (by 350k) 10) Will FF have a Saturday increase of more than 40%? NO (by 2.8%) 11) Will Jurassic World make more than 10 million WW according to Rentrak? YES (by 147k. ) 12) Will Pixels drop less than 38.5%? YES (by 0.4%. )
