Weekend Estimates: Gravity - 55.5M; CWACM - $21.5M ;RR - 7.6M;

Recommended Posts

I think it'll be better than that since this may skew adult and has Imax grosses to boost it

 

Actually you could be right.  Taken 2 dropped 55% last year on its first Monday. But that might have been Canadian Thanksgiving.  So a 65% drop might be more plausible.

Real Steal dropped 76 % on its second Mon....again, the first was Canadian Thanksgiving.

Weekday numbers in October are shit.No one panic with a 70%+ drop on Monday.

 

Gravity has IMAX plus it's older skewing so weekday drops will be smaller especially with great WOM. I'm expecting sub 70% drop on Monday.

Monday drops are heavy. It appears that animations even drop 80%+...

That was Columbus Day, which this year is the 14th.

 

So Columbus Day and our Thanksgiving fall on the same day every year.  We have TG next Monday as well.

I think we could see a 40M+ 2nd weekend only because of the IMAX and 3D.Although someone mentioned Captain Phillips is getting an IMAX release...?Da Fuq!?

Its a great opening but I'm not gonna lose my mind with $250-$300M "locked" claims. Man of Steel was "locked" for $325M+ after its amazing opening and A- CinemaScore.

 

 

MOS wasn't great plus faced massive competition while Gravity's great and it must be seen on the biggest screen possible. It's going to get Oscar bump so 200M+ is very likely. As I'm expecting Cuaron to win the BD.

True but usually WOM monsters break the mold so I want be surprised with 60-65% drop on Monday.

Yes, but Man of Steel didn't have the critics hype on its side. Everything in Gravity's first 2 days of release crys for great legs. It's the first time since Avatar, I feel we'll have this "must see in cinema" WOM.
