next week seems like the biggest dump week of the year, I've seen zero promotion for next week releases, I would be surprised if any opener earns more than 8m
even if so-so marketing from Uncle, Kingsman was rated R and over performed...its somewhat interesting cause at least UNCLE had potential future A-list stars
good for Compton, could be front-loaded? either way it is over performing
also UNCLE beat by MI5 on 3rd weekend is not good....funny that Cruise was attached to the project briefly
seems like MI5 will top out at 180m at most, seems like this movie is missing the IMAX factor, last movie had repeat value with great IMAX buzz, thankfully Paramount has not forced 3D on this franchise
maybe? but sometimes like Star Trek 09 or GotG they announce sequels a few weeks before based on good buzz, dating sequels way before release of first is not really marketing
who cares about Scientology? who watches movies base on religion? Cruise himself has not talked publically about scientology in years...stop blaming religion and except an aging star fades naturally, he is still a draw, but not as potent
