Paramount/Bad Robot loses the rights to the franchise in 2016. Which means they have to make a sequel to a movie that may not break even in theaters and JJ is too busy to help them right now.

 

I did not know that.

[Chewy]

He was saying 400-415 for Star Trek last weekend, correct?

 

Ya basically he was desperate for something, anything to beat IM3 and latched onto Trek 

[Sam]

last weekend yes. Friday he lowered it to 300m. But he said Tuesday was IM3's last day to make money and it would be done when Trek came out, lol.

He has a "Must. Beat. IM3" attitude. It's kinda funny 

[lab276]

He was expecting a 200% jump for Friday 

He was expecting more from Thursday.

[pieman]

Wow, this movie is getting roasted on the Deadline Hollywood comment section. Might reflect what the general public are thinking.

Who gets the rights?

Please recap for me what they are saying.

[ecstasy]

Um I believe we had Thursday numbers already when he made that prediction.

Star Trek purists are going in.

Since when do Deadline comments reflect the general public? 

[lab276]

We didn't have Thursday numbers last weekend, which is what Gopher was saying.

[pieman]

Someone made a great point about how the reboot characters have just become broad parodies of the original characters.

[Sam]

Um I believe we had Thursday numbers already when he made that prediction.

I fully expect him to champion FF6 now, IM3 must die no matter what 

[Impact]

That would of translated to a 35M OD, not terrible by any means. Better then some were saying earlier.

[pieman]

Not that it reflects the general public but it may do so more than this particular board.

[redfirebird2008]

WTF? How did Rth's estimate end up $4-6m higher than the real number? Star Flop. Wow.

[ecstasy]

I was talking about the 200% Friday increase that Sam stated.  My bad.

[Accursed Arachnid!™]

Is Todd Phillips also staring in the movie?

I think he also did the music.

[CJohn]

That would of translated to a 35M OD, not terrible by any means. Better then some were saying earlier.

No, it wouldn't. Those 14M it did on Thursday would probably be divided by the whole weekend. Because with a 35M OD it would do over 90M OW, and it will barely do over 80M in the 4 days at this point.

[senmitsuji]

but deadline commenters always sound bitter as fuck
