Depending on how much it drops against Despicable Me 2 next weekend, very possible.

[MovieGuyKyle17]

I forgot all about Lone Ranger which could also semi-bomb like White House Down 

[bapi]

50% drop would be amazing. 300 still in play with a 4th of July boost?

I think so. Green Lantern had 65%, no?

[Shawn Robbins]

I still don't think MU gets to $300m, but, that's mainly because it feels like DM2 is going to put a big dent in it.

 

Or... maybe DM2 isn't going to be as big as we expect.

 

*shrug*

Is 300M possible now for MU?

 

It could, but i don't see it as a lock.

I think the latter.

Monsters University will hold well imo

[mcclaine]

Does anyone know if Byzantium is going to expand from those 6 theaters? or is it a one week only deal or something like that?

[bapi]

I just really, really hope The Lone Ranger will BOMB!!!

[MrPink]

 

It's gonna 'Into Darkness.' Already waiting to call it a flop. Once Benjamin Bratt joined the film, it was all over.

It will. WWZ and all the preceding movies means that there is little built up demand for action. And it's not the main event movie of the weekend. DM2 will eat this thing alive.

So if MoS makes 18M, 300M is done.19M means its a lock.Interesting analysis.

[Krissykins]

Variety just tweeted calling White House Down a bomb and "tanks with $9m".Ouch. Wouldn't have thought this would have been such a bomb.

Sony F'ed up with the marketing 

[forg]

Saw Despicable Me 2 via press screening here earlier and well it's very heavy with the minions antics. I think it will be big worldwide. As for DOM, I think it will have huge opening but not that impressive legs because the story is not compelling at all. But I feel like the minions is just like Ice Age's Scrat

 

Anyway, pleased with MU and The Heat's estimates. Hope they hold up

Really? I'm one of the few people who don't really like the minions. I'm looking forward to DM2 though.

When the trailer is out, it is great then the marketing just goes lame until it is released lol.

300? Try 350
