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

[lab276]

Ticket prices are going to be very high for the quarter, possibly more than the $8.38 in the 2nd quarter.

[#ED]

It's not.

Ok. So 40M+ would be awesome.

[The Stingray]

Gravity - 98%, 9.1/10

Runner Runner - 8%, 4.1/10

 

lol

Did you know DiCaprio was a producer on RR?

I can't believe I have to wait until November 8th to see gravity. Ugh, fuck all of you.

The better the Sunday drop, the worse Monday could be.Monday drops:50% - 60% = HOLY FUCK60% - 65% = Great65% - 70% = Good70% - 75% = Expected75%+ = Fuck you October!

 

With 60% over 35+, I just don't see how it drops 70%+ tomorrow.

I think they may be overestimating the Sunday hold.

[rockNrollaDIM]

what have you seen it that changed your mind? I personally think the quality differs from each movie and that makes it awful compared to imax which is awesome with every movie.

 

Very true. Gravity is the best 3D I've ever seen. One of the few I can say I enjoyed.

 

For the record I only saw it in regular 3D, I'm not sure if Switzerland even has an iMAX screen

 

Hopefully it's still playing in iMAX when I get home in November. Doubtful though.

Was he now? Thats interesting, I truly wonder what he saw in that project. Or maybe he's just buddies with Ben Affleck.

Best 3D I've ever seen so it's good to see great 3D rewarded.

A Lesson to Hollywood: Make a good movie and people will come to watch it. It feels kind of obvious to say that, but Hollywood still isn't listening.

It has the most immersive 3D I've seen in a long time. It feels like a mini-Avatar that it must be seen in theaters.

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.http://boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=daily&id=taken2.htmReal Steal dropped 76 % on its second Mon....again, the first was Canadian Thanksgiving.http://boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=daily&id=realsteel.htm

Yeah I'm expecting something like 65% but that would still be good for this time of year. Considering its performance so far I have to imagine word of mouth is spreading like crazy and should have better than average weekday holds.

me the 7th.

[lab276]

The last time we had this calendar was 2002, on that weekend, Red Dragon opened, it's broadly comparable to Gravity. It dropped 41% on Sunday and 72% on Monday.http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=daily&view=chart&id=reddragon.htm

i was thinking they were underestimating it.

Loving the Gravity numbers. 

[lab276]

i was thinking they were underestimating it.

Even if it does drop 40% and not 35%, it's only about a million dollars. It would still get the record.

[baumer]

what is TG?

 

Thanksgiving

It played in mostly 3D.  Very few 2D like Avatar.

 

This is my favorite OW figure of the entire year. Couln't be happier for Cuaron/WB.

 

I was never a fan of Cuaron before.  Now I am.  This is an astonishing directorial effort.  I like Bullock in it but she is not the star of the film.  The star is Cuaron and the DP.
