Impact Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 There are some parts that are right just not there, anyway please I don't want this to turn into a political talk.

Impact Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 And you could email them telling them that part is wrong, the rest is okay though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 One of the funniest getting the news wrong for a films box office was still when I read how nobody predicted that Water for Elephants would do so poorly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impact Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I expect next week Planes to have the best hold, given how family films do. Now for the biggest drop-which one of the 3 openers will it be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wally Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I expect next week Planes to have the best hold, given how family films do. Now for the biggest drop-which one of the 3 openers will it be? Mortal Instruments for sure... If it follows The Host's run, will drop 50%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoguy Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Mortal Instruments for sure... If it follows The Host's run, will drop 50%. Everyone that wanted to see MI saw it on its OW. Book readers have already turned against it. Prepare for a massive second weekend drop! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecstasy Posted August 27, 2013 Author Share Posted August 27, 2013 Stuck in Love is from the dude making the Fault in our Stars adaptation. I should probably check that one out sometime. Anyway, this is the best/worst spin on a box office story I've ever seen: http://www.newsmax.com/newswidget/butler-reagan-fonda-protests/2013/08/26/id/522202?promo_code=11550-1&utm_source=11550Breitbart&utm_medium=nmwidget&utm_campaign=widgetphase1 'BUTLER' BOX OFFICE SALES PLUMMET BY ONE THIRD LOL I refuse to believe people are this stupid.

Deep Wang Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 (edited) Short Term 12 finished with $56,206 which gave it a PTA of $14,052. Not too terrible considering there was almost no promotion. Edited August 27, 2013 by rallax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilmac Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 (edited) Any chance of WWZ hitting $200m? It will be very close. Edited August 27, 2013 by lilmac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Marston Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Any chance of WWZ hitting $200m? It will be very close. yes it will definitely hit it. In fact, I heard someone say there will be some sort of double feature with STID this weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecstasy Posted August 27, 2013 Author Share Posted August 27, 2013 I just posted that website on my twitter. What a bunch of absolute jackasses. It's really scary to think people actually follow that stuff and believe it without any independent thought. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blankments Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 And it did have bad casting, the way they make it is pretty bad too from what I've seen (amusing since there are far worse spins and stuff then the ones you just put) On another topic-will anything before Cloudy 2 make 100M? THE BUTLER will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luna Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 LOL I refuse to believe people are this stupid. I just can't. stupid? hardly anyone follows box office, who except the forumites know what a 33% drop means? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 To be fair it would hold even better if it was not one sided, don't want to start some political debate or anything though. It is interesting though how The Butler was overestimated by nearly the same amount on both weekends. Weinstein seems to have a thing for overestimating.
