we are the millers

[Fancyarcher]

So-so numbers for Elysium (it made more than Planes if those estimates hold up), great for We're the Millers and Planes, and lackluster for Percy Jackson.

[fishstick]

Elysium won't win the weekend because it won't have insane increase on Saturday like Planes and maybe even We're the Millers.

:mellow:We're the Millers isn't likely going to increase very much on Saturday.

YES! ELYSIUM CONQUERS THE WEEKEND!!

35m for the top 4 if they hold.

[Ozymandias]

31m+ off of a 11.5m Friday? Thats doubtful.

If the 11.5 does not include 1.6 in sneaks, then it is possible. But with the 1.6M included, the true Friday is 10M, so 26-30M seems most likely depending on word of mouth.

Elysium will go over 30M OW if these estimates hold. Another comedy brings the money home. Planes may end with more than Turbo and Smurfs DOM. Power to Pixa... I mean DisneyToons! LOL at Flop Jackson. WTF was FOX thinking when they schedule it in this weekend?

[Fanboy]

Omg if that 9.5M is correct for WTM my 100M club is happening. 

[Jandrew]

The fact that WTM is only $2M behind Elysium and it opened on Wednesday is hilarious.

Not necessarily. It could die out at the box office next weekend because of competition.

Planes won't have a crazy Saturday bump. Maybe 20-25%. 

 

11.5-11.5-8.8 = 31.8

9.5-11-9 = 29.5 

9-11.5-8.7 = 29.2 

5-6-4.5=15.5 

 

Tight weekend between the top three. 

[kayumanggi]

Wow at WTM. WB could have five 100 M films this summer.

[Fanboy]

Not necessarily. It could die out at the box office next weekend because of competition.

9.5M would mean about 40M 5-day. I don't see how it drops so quickly even with competition. WOM for WTM is good.

Actually it would be about 38 million, still competition is competition, and just because the cinemascore is good doesn’t necessarily mean it’ll have the greatest of legs.

 

Not saying it won’t, I’m just saying that 100 million is not 100% possible.

Planes will have made its budget back from this weekend alone, guess Disney were right to give it a theatrical release. WTM is another success for WB and NL, comedy has done well this summer with the success of TITE, GU2 and now WTM. Poor for PJ.
