Darth Homer Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 A horror movie not falling 50% second weekend is pretty much unheard of. CITW, PA1 and Insidious all managed it. We're just used to horror films dropping hard because most of them are complete crap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezen Baklattan Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 CITW, PA1 and Insidious all managed it. We're just used to horror films dropping hard because most of them are complete crap. And even then, The Conjuring is dropping the same amount as CITW with three times the opening weekend. That's insane. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 There are films for sure but take PA 1 off that list. It expanded second weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 DAT shitty Wolverine number. Not even reaching 60M is just terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLK Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) This is is why I am not sold on DOFP being a breakout hit next year. I don't think that there is a large enough fanbase there for the franchise anymore. Being the third SH movie after Cap2 and TASM2 in less than 2 months won't help it either.

CJohn Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 So we are pretending First Class doesn't exist anymore? No. We are just telling the audience this is the sequel to X-Men 3. Which it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poseidon Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) I actually don't know, where all the positivity for DOFP comes from? Nostalgia? "First Class" was very well received and still had a very disappointing multiplier. That franchise is burnt out, because nobody felt responsible to work out a plan for it. It's all over the place and there's no way to fix it. It needs time, some years of sleep and maybe in 8 or 10 years, they can start a new franchise.

Spidey Freak Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I would love that Don't expect that anytime soon dude. The X-Films are dropping in BO numbers from each previous movie, but not mega bombing like the Narnia sequels. It will take no less for Fox to give up the rights. They are not even letting go of Fantastic Four, and that has proven to be a far less lucrative franchise than X-Men for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
