Go see the movie. And I wish I looked like Leo.

Riczhang, why don't you have that Leo picture in your sig as a gif? It would look even lovelier 

[riczhang]

I thought we weren't allowed gifs in sigs.....

Going back into the past the worst Sun drop is 19% with X-Men 3. 

 

Because most Memorial openers are not frontloaded series. X-Men is one of the only ones that was, so that's a great comparison because that always has been a very frontloaded series like Fast and Furious. Actually the Fast series is even more frontloaded historically than the X-Men series. So 20% may be  a tad too high for Sunday drop, but I'll be shocked if it drops less than 15%. And I think 20% is possible.

I am trying to aviod being sick. I have not anything today .

Pretty seasoned drinker. Down plenty of water. Eat the sub that's easiest on your stomach. Down a black coffee just before bed. If you're coherent enough to post, you're not very drunk. If you follow my instruction, you likely won't even have a hangover tomorrow. Problem solved.

Facepalm

 

Fast Five fell 27% on a normal Sunday and you expect 20% on Memorial Day Sunday, the biggest Sunday of the year for box office. 

 

 

FF has been frontloaded but Fast Five sort of expanded the audiences so its not that Frontloaded anymore as before like with Fast Four.

I said that might be a bit too high on second thought, but it wouldn't surprise me. And 15% for sure.

[druv10]

Yeah, see post above ... made the Memorial Day mistake ... history shows that should be closer to 10% than 20% ...so I figure 107 4 day.

 

Of course, this is all assuming near the higher end of Rth ... not 33, if that then it's probably 85 & 101

 

No problem. It should be able to pass original without any problem. 230M+ as summer will help weekdays and next strongest competition is MOS so legs should be good on it. 

[blackspider]

So its OD is going to be the same as Fast Five or even a little lower? I have a hard time believing that.

Okay found the NYC theater Heretic was looking. F6 did gangbusters here!

Brookyln they go hard they go hard

[MovieMan89]

Anyways the whole point was it's not making "a lot" more than F5 with a  35m OD anyway you slice it, and most people thought it would. Therefore it's a slight underperformer. Unless Friday number goes way up.

[druv10]

Where did you get that? See my sig, it's a gif 

 

Love Dumbo.

me too

I am seeing around 15% 

 

but I imagine the film will likely hold well over the weekend as Fast Five has expanded the appeal of these films as such they are not that frontloaded anymore... Fast 4 and Fast 5 legs were quite different. 

[riczhang]

I guess you have not seen my gif.

 

I can be quite oblivious. 

[Biggestgeekever]

It's sold out a 1am, 1:15, and 1:30 at AMC Empire in New York. I have faith it can get above $36m. 

[Sam]

I can be quite oblivious. 

If you want to change it to a gif, use this one, it's been cut down to the allowed size.

 

[Lordmandeep]

Even so we have a range but considering all the movies and such the numbers could change a bit by Sat Morning.

 

Until then lights out...

 

 

 

Even so Fast 6 100 + and IM3 25+ 

 

wohoh...
