  1. We'll see. Not if it has another really harsh drop against Apes next week like I suspect it will.
  2. That's a huge maybe though. I'm gonna say that if Apes does take the summer it will be because of fantastic WOM rather than a huge OW. I just can't see it opening huge when so many other higher profile films couldn't get past the 100 barrier (and yes I'm including TransFudgers: Age of Deception too).
  3. There's something about it that makes me feel an overwhelming sadness that is one of the most extreme and instant bursts of emotion any piece of music gives me.
  4. And seriously folks can we just NOT talk about Dragon's box office anymore? I mean fuck, it's depressing.
  5. I hate Maleficent almost as much as TF4, but DOFP is a fantastic film so it really would be a crime if it didn't outgross TF4.
  6. I didn't say they didn't have big increases, I said they weren't grossing much. It's much easier to have a big sat increase with a smaller gross.
  7. Also totally sticking by what I said last weekend that Maleficent will beat TF4 DOM. Watch it happen folks.
  8. Most of those movies weren't making much that weekend though (2008). The only movie makig a lot was Hancock and it only increased 39% that Saturday. Anyways that was 6 years ago when legs were far better than today. I told you all TF4 was dropping 65%+ this weekend and not getting more than a 2.4x multi. It's pretty much impossible in the summer these days to go much above that with a big opener unless WOM is out of this world.
  9. Maybe they don't sub/dub the film there. I mean I'm sure the movies are way more enjoyable if you dont have to endure the "dialogue".
  10. Agreed. Had it at like 115m in the summer game. Lol. Guess we won't have a real horror hit this summer.
  11. Geez, Maleficent's legs are starting to get into the range reserved for the absolute best received films. If it keeps this up it could hit as high as 250. I honestly can't think of the last time such a bad movie has had such phenomenal legs though. Really tragic this is the one movie of the summer to get the awesome WOM.
  12. Lord have mercy. If I have to see people legitimately comparing Frozen to a goddamn masterpiece of cinema, art, time, and space that is The Lion freakin' King then I'm officially giving up on humanity.
  13. Pretty much agree. As much as it pains me to say this the general public just obviously had no interest in the movie. I don't know if doing much differently would have helped. I mean it's a fantastic film just like its predecessor with no direct competition, and yet that's not doing squat for its legs so I think that speaks volumes about just how much the public apparently didn't care about a sequel to the first.
  14. I felt it was two very different movies (the first half vs the second half). So much so it was a bit jarring.
  15. Decent jump for TF4. Falls right in the range most of the movies increased on Thursday back in '08 (20-30%). 34m for the weekend would be my guess with that Thursday continuing to use '08 4th holds.
  16. If Planes 2 outgrosses Dragon 2 by some stretch I'm wishing horrible diseases on the children who helped make it possible.
  17. I still swear to this day that release date was the sole purpose for that remake's existence.
  18. All About Steve was Bullock purposefully lighting her "old" career on fire so that she could be reborn again from the ashes.
  19. Yeah, I wasn't even sure who he was talking about when I read that post. Stone and Lawrence on the other hand are massive household names, and Kendrick has a nice little following too after the cult hit Pitch Perfect was.
