Fast 6 is playing good with families. Monday # shouldnt be too off

Do you have demo breakdown?

Fast 6 is playing good with families...

Really? That's surprising

OS for Star Trek is fine; it's doing better than I expected OS...

I disagree. It's doing worse than i expected for example and i expected about 250m. Nothing extraordinary.

And i'm sure when a studio makes a 190m budget blockbuster they expect something more than 200m or so from the expanded overseas markets.

Wait... What's Into Darkness on pace to gross OS? Sub-$200M?

250 M is possible.

I'd hope it improves on Star Trek's OS total by at least $100M to finish with $228M+ OS.

I'm just straight up rooting for Fast 6. The movie is great and it officially whooped Flopover's ass.

Already zoomed ahead of Into Darkness by $60M WW too. Fantastic global start for Furious 6. Well done LIn and Co... Well done.

No I don't, but what Ive seen around town, Hispanics were around 30-40% (and my city is nowhere close to that Hispanic percentage). Black and white made up the rest. And most of the families were Hispanic. In other words most of the little kids, as young as 2-3, were brought by Hispanics. 7 and up W, B, and H. Families were probably around 30%-40%. Many parents with they're kids and teenagers - all demos - black, white, and Hispanic, and few date couples. It was either groups (a group of about 10 whites walked out right before the credit scene), or families of 4 or more. Date night couples were probably 20% (which is low because adult tickets are $9 and student is $8).

 

Also when I was in line, there were families buying tickets for F6 - families of 4 and 5, and I have family members that are going with their kids today, and I've read of other families that went. It may not be as great with families as a whole, but in the southeast at least its possibly #2 behind Epic.

Random, but does anyone think Universal will at some point reboot JAWS? I feel like its inevitable, unless they've lost the rights.

I thought the movie was a totally idiotic blast and I'm so glad it's whooping Bombover.

Fast 6 breaks through the wall of idiocy and goes into a zen like territory of meta-retardation and post-stupid reverse intelligence.

STiD is currently above ST 09 by $300k. It's not too much, but this is a good sign.

That's because ST09's second monday wasn't Memorial Day.

[Sam]

Since Trek holds well this weekend, should we expect a good hold next weekend too? Or will it likely fall bigger than normal cause of inflated holiday weekend?

Hopefully flopover collapses after today and misses 100m.

[Jack Nevada]

OMG what kind of an epic drop can we expect for Flopover?

It featured the longest runway in human history :lol:When Vin Diesel saved Michelle Rodriguez the audience actually burst out laughing. But they still loved the movie.

[rockNrollaDIM]

I love how the forums are unanimous on this Flopover for once

[Jack Nevada]

It featured the longest runway in human history  

I know, I was actually laughing out loud at how long that runway was. Despite that the plane action set piece was incredibly complex, I mean so complex. I cant even imagine the time it must have taken to sketch that shit out.

Glad you loved it, but come onnnnn hahaha, the runway isn't that long! We saw the scene through everyone's perspectives, that's why it felt longer. They did the same thing for Fast and Furious 1. If you notice a character pose, once the shot leaves them, but comes back to them, they're in the same pose.
