Gopher Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 giteshpandya Gitesh Pandya WKND BO: #Twilight $42M/$221.3M, #Muppets$29.5M/$42M, HF2 $13.4M/$43.8M, Arthur $12.7M/$17M, #Hugo $11.4M/$15.4M. Was hoping that Muppets and Hugo would have slightly better IMs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonytr87 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Just realized why Happy Feet is underperforming so badly...the original was five years ago. HF1 wasn't a big enough hit for a sequel half a decade later to come close to matching its total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 BD1 trails New Moon by $1/2 a million to $1 million each day. That doesn't speak well to its chances of hitting $300 million.Shit. I refuse to believe I will be defied. No, $300 mio is happening and Avengers and Skyfall are da toast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLK Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Muppets numbers are a bit disappointing but hopefully good WOM will kick in and it will have a really good holiday run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 No,no,np,NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Why, why this movie won`t die? Any hope mainstream public totlaly ignore it? Please, stike a stake into this boring shit already. ADM has done great. Sony Pictures Classics' "A Dangerous Method" opened on four screens. After taking in $59,690 on Wednesday and Thursday, the film took in another $181,852 over the weekend. That resulted in a potent $45,463 average over the 3-day weekend and a $240,944 total since opening Wednesday.The film, which stars Michael Fassbender as Jung and Viggo Mortensen as Freud, topped the $36,472 Cronenberg's "Eastern Promises" averaged in its 2007 debut (though, mind you, that was on 15 screens) and the $36,856 "A History of Violence" averaged in 2005 (on 14 screens). Those films ended up with $17.2 million and $31.5 million final grosses, respectively. For "A Dangerous Method" to approach either of those final grosses would clearly make Sony Classics very happy. http://www.indiewire.com/article/holiday-box-office-update-marilyn-makes-her-debut-descendents-continues-to-shineThsi isn`t right.

Gopher Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 If Descendants goes to 2000+ theaters next weekend, it has a legitimate chance at #1. 7.2m from 433 theaters is a little unbelievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was the last time a film raked in that much cash from so few theatres the original Paranormal Activity? ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted November 27, 2011 Founder / Operator Share Posted November 27, 2011 Incredible for Descendants. Expected for Twilight. Solid for Muppets, though personally I'm a bit disappointed (which has no relevance on its real success). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I am too, but my expectations were purely fueled by my own hype for the movie. 42m means that it got its budget back in five days. It's also more tickets than Muppets in Space sold in its entire run (thank god). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 We can effectively say that BD1 has lost all chances for $295m, let alone $300m. I'm really happy for The Descendants, though, it's an incredible film on every level. How is that number for My Week With Marilyn? I think it's decent enough...besides, my Emma is in it!

It does make me think even more conservatively for Tintin though, given the CG animation genre's stumbles this year. To be honest, looking at the numbers this weekend, I'm rather nervous about lies ahead in December. Holmes 2 and MI4 need to do well, but even they can't carry the month by themselves.

grey ghost Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 If anything December has too much competition late in the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Lol at Happy Feet 2No. They laid off 600 workers in Australia because this thing flopped. And those people were not responsible for flopping because they worked on animation and animation was never a problem here. Producer who greenlit this shit, scribe to wrote the shitty script aare people whose head should have rolled, not those guys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishstick Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) You take this way too seriouslyI don`t want AD fucks to win and I don`t want histrionics to get nominated again. KK should win for jumping under the train next year which would make her the second Star Wars actress who won Best Actress.

Decent box office or no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieGuyKyle16 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I'm disappointed by that number for The Muppets (and my survivor numbers are crap) Great for The Descentants I cant wait for this movie to come to my area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
