Wednesday Numbers | TITE 7.8, NYSM 2, Purge 1.9, FF6 1.6, Intern 1.4, Epic 1.3

[Alpha]

TITE should have good WOM over the weekend. The highest it can go is $30M for the weekend, and $45M for the five-day.

[baumer]

Cinemascores are one thing but actual water cooler talk is another. I dont see how this is not well received. I havent personally spoken with anyone who didnt like it.

[narniadis]

Under 10m today? Good for my game lol - not so hot when you take the previews into account.

[baumer]

7.8 is official OD number for TITE. Erc

[Heretic]

That's actually pretty good! Definitely upwards of 35m now I think. Even a slight chance at 40m, albeit a small one.

Wednesday's top movies: #1 THIS IS THE END $5.6M ($7.8M) #2 NYSM $2M ($67M) #3 THE PURGE $1.9M ($42M) #4 F&F6 $1.6M ($208M)

I get that bonus.

I'm thinking around $10M for Purge this weekend....$70m finish-ish.

Damn, nice return for Universal. So 23x of its budget. I doubt many summer blockbusters can brag about that

[Jandrew]

B+? I wonder what people didnt like, tweets are calling it the funniest movies in ages

15% drop for NYSM so ok considering TiTE. Now lets see how it hold up against MoS

[Shawn Robbins]

I could actually see it being a little more backloaded than Pineapple Express, which opened later in the summer and was more inclined to be front-loaded being a stoner movie. TITE, though it has its own limitations, seems to have a wider appeal (aided by the strong WOM).

 

But we'll see. MoS is a factor against it, but I also don't think the audiences will overlap as much as people think. It's already off to a great start either way.

That seems really unlikely. WWZ will open moderately strong, but over $50m seems a huge stretch... and likewise, it's a huge stretch that both MU and MOS would go under $50m.

Unless Supes 6 opens to $115M+, I definitely see it going under $50M next weekend. That said, I do not see World War Z grossing much more than $35M+... It could top out a little over $40M I guess.

Irony is Pineapple Express would have bested The Dark Knight that weekend had it not gone for the 5 day opening. Of course that was a reaction to the growing buzz on Tropic Thunder.

That was a great few weeks for us as movie fans, but I have to wonder how much more Tropic Thunder might have made without PE in the market simultaneously.

Not sure.

 

Both were big hits. Neither studio cried at the receipts.

Good news for Baumer and NYSM supporters, so far, there are reports of the movie breaking out in Russia and HK 

[Blankments]

I'm so excited for tonight, seeing Man of Steel at 7. I'll be able to stick around for all the weekend numbers!  Another preview:

You are all wrong. You are all wrong. You are all wrong. You are all wrong. You are all wrong.

 

BKB: My name is BKB. (You are all wrong. You are all wrong.) I have journeyed onto the Internet to reach you. These forums have supported one of my targets. It will look like a GOOD SUPERMAN movie, but it is not. To those of you who support SNYDER, the fate of the film’s quality is thanks to your blind trust. To the NOLANITES, I say this: watch IRON MAN 3 within 24 hours or watch these boards suffer the consequences.

 

On June 14

 

DMan7: It will not win. For every dollar it makes, we will troll a million posts more.

 

iTz OnLy ED: It won’t fail us.

 

BKB: SNYDER already has.
