26% drop from last week for We're The Millers. That's pretty awesome.

 

Smurfs only up 9% from yesterday, and yet at the same time only down 45% from last week. Go figure.

[CJohn]

MI is showing some legs. I was expecting 2.9M Friday.

[Jake Gittes]

So, The World's End over Scott Pilgrim? I mean total ($31.5m), not OW.

I have a feeling World's End will be more frontloaded than the average comedy.

Official Trailer for ALL THE BOYS LOVE MANDY LANE with Amber Heard

 

this crappie movie, made in 2006, finally is going to be released this Oct.

Oh shit, I remember that getting released in the UK yeeeeeaaars ago.

[kitik]

I watched a movie called Rapture Palooza last night. It wasn't good.

[Deep Wang]

I don't understand that Kick-Ass 2 drop at all. The 2nd movie was just as good as the first.

 

While I didn't hate it as much as some people, it doesn't come close to the original.

I dunno why it wouldn't reach a 3.5 multi. WOM should be there plus it should have a very nice hold next weekend. I think $35m is doable.

[The Futurist]

So is 100 million happening for The Butler or no? 

 

Yep.

 

Weisntein wil drag it all oscar season long like he did last year with SLP.

TWE multipliers (just for OW) with other Wright films:

 

Shaun of the Dead: 10,029,768

Hot Fuzz: 9,565,193

Scott Pilgrim: 8,172,767

[Jake Gittes]

Yeah I'm thinking 9.5 on OW and 35-ish total.

[Sam]

No number for Jobs?

[Lumos]

Excellent hold for We're The Millers!! If it keeps this up 140M could be on the table.

[The Stingray]

Oh shit, I remember that getting released in the UK yeeeeeaaars ago.

Yeah, I saw that movie like 5 years ago..

[Cairo]

Yep.

SLP was expanding during the awards season since that's when Jennifer had a break from CF to promote it. Butler is going to be on dvd by then. It can still make it to $100 million though with good late legs.

[Michael Gary Scott]

I watched a movie called Rapture Palooza last night. It wasn't good.

it has Kendrick in it so I will watch it but it looked really bad

[baumer]

Thats almost a 100% bump for Butler. Ithink it could hot 16 mill.

3.1M is still terrible for MI.
