Irvine Spectrum?

Yes

[Cmasterclay]

I need receipts. It didn't have any sell outs at the Regal theaters in NYC.

It's doing incredibly well in the Southeast, which is where I mostly checked. Miami, Tampa, Atlanta, New Orleans, etc. 

[Shawn Robbins]

 

I totally remember seeing that on Saturday morning lol. 

 

Bruce Almighty really had an amazing run in retrospect. I miss the peak of Carrey's box office draw.

I think 40 is definite. 45 seems very possible. 50? I won't go there yet.

And from a 2D movie no less.

50m would be almost a 50% increase from Fast Five's OD! I think 40-45m sounds pretty damn good right now.

Why just in retrospect? Surely it wasn't a disappointment at the time.

Perfect weekend ahead. F&F6 kicks ass while TH3 collapses.    

[Dementeleus]

So... these huge sellouts probably screw me on another question. I knew I should've changed it...

[Cmasterclay]

I predicted 42 million opening day at the start of May and in BSG, and that seems like a realistic number. Would absolutely love for it to go higher, though

Oh, definitely not. I just meant it's easy an run to forget as a comedy whose sequel didn't do that well.

Atlanta Regal Atlantic had crazy sell outs tonight. I posted some earlier.  NYC seems to be the only hold out, lol.

It's run got pretty quickly overshadowed by Finding Nemo. Man, May 2003 rocked the house.

 

I wish I had participated in the forums then. I bet the fish beating Neo caused some seismic quakes. And then the pirate went and did it too!

It isn't doing well in DC, either. But from my experience going to college there, the only movies that really sold out in DC proper are high quality, awards type fare or super blockbusters like Iron Man. The taste in the Northeast/Mid Atlantic doesn't seem to cater to this type of movie, in alot of cases.

May 2003 was nuts. Probably the only May where every big film that came out met or exceeded expectations. (Despite Reloaded being beat, 282m in 2003 dollars for an R rated film is really good).

You can still update for another 35 mins.

I thought the deadline was 6pm.

For the Donovan you have 33 mins. It's a separate deadline.

Oh yeah, that was a loaded May. X2, Bruce Almighty, Matrix Reloaded and Finding Nemo. Somehow they all met or exceeded expectation. Quality trumps even the crowded market.

That wasn't the question I had in mind, although..... hmmmm.
