Vin Diesel has the #1 film in North America, as RIDDICK launched w/ $18.6M

[CaptainJackSparrow]

Anyway, what is the next Universal film you all will be seeing next in theaters? For me, Dracula, which is over a year from now!

Rush, About Time, 47 Ronin, Non-Stop, Neighbors, A Million Ways to Die in the West, Fast & Furious 7. Strong chance I won't see Dracula.

That must have been a hell of a bump on Sturday for films. Sunday films should drop more than 40%.

[tawasal]

Millers and Butler are rocking at the boxoffice. 

[lab276]

What's with the Sunday hold for INI? Surely that won't happen.

This is the End is 1M away from the 100M mark

 

Unfortunately, it comes out here on October 3, same day as Rush and Runner Runner. I probably won't see it in theaters...

100% increase for INI on Saturday? Da fuq?-5% decrease on Sunday?If last weekends numbers made no sense this is about the same.+3% increase from last weekend. Whoa.

Wtf is up with these Satutday increases?

 

 

they look somewhat comparable to the same weekend last year

[baumer]

What a disappointment KA2 is.

[BoxOfficeFangrl]

The star of Instructions Not Included was a guest on Jimmy Fallon's show Friday night. Granted it's not the biggest audience but it was probably the most exposure he and the movie have had to a "mainstream" audience ever, so it might have helped. IDK.

[A Marvel Fanboy]

at this rate, INI will do 100M+.

[Fancyarcher]

at this rate, INI will do 100M+.

 

Yeah, but they'll have to re-release it six times first. 

[#ED]

at this rate, INI will do 100M+.

Not happening lol...INI should get 30M at this point.
