The Stingray Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Hard to believe that Gravity is the first movie to be #1 three straight weeks since The Hobbit--both WB movies. Does this mean that TDKR is better than The Avengers? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blankments Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 On the Fifth Estate: A friend of mine saw the movie last night but she was the only one in the theater Was hoping for bigger numbers for both 12YAS and Gravity, but both of them are fine regardless.

If it wins BP then 70M+ is possible, maybe even 100M. Edited October 19, 2013 by druv10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babz06 Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 wow, that's pretty poor for Carrie. I thought being the only horror movie would get it over the 20m hump. I think the R rating really hurt it, most of her fans are teens (13-18). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted October 19, 2013 Founder / Operator Share Posted October 19, 2013 My take on Moretz: she's very young, not meant to be a big draw yet--that's why Moore was cast as the veteran supporting anchor in this. Moretz still has a very bright future ahead. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted October 19, 2013 Founder / Operator Share Posted October 19, 2013 (edited) The Butler. It didn't win the 3-day Labor Day, just the 4-day, so doesn't count. Edited October 19, 2013 by ShawnMR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted October 19, 2013 Founder / Operator Share Posted October 19, 2013 (edited) Weekend Projections & Analysis: http://www.boxoffice.com/statistics/bo_numbers/early_estimate/2013-10-19 http://www.boxoffice.com/latest-news/2013-10-18-north-america-carrie-delivers-strong-results-on-thursday Excerpt: As expected, Warner Bros.' Gravity will maintain its hold on first place for a third consecutive weekend--the first film to pull such a feat in 2013, and the first since WB's own The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey won the final three weekends of 2012. The space drama added $9.07 million to its haul on Friday, off just 28 percent week-to-week and giving it a 15-day domestic haul of $148.61 million. The flick is now running 28.6 percent ahead of The Blind Side's pace, and 14.6 percent behindInception. Look for Gravity to net around $31 million this weekend. Sony reports an estimated $6.6 million opening day for their Carrie remake, a respectable figure but far short of a breakout. By comparison, the studio'sEvil Dead remake bowed to an $11.9 million first day earlier this year. The built-in appeal of Carrie as well as rising star Chloë Grace Moretz and veteran actress Julianne Moore helped bring out horror fans. Word of mouth appears underwhelming with a Flixster score of 67 percent (so far), although its "B-" CinemaScore ("B+" for audiences over the age of 25, as Sony notes) isn't too bad for the horror genre. Carrie was hoping to take advantage of being the lone new horror release this October as this year marks the first since 2003 that aSaw or Paranormal Activity film won't be around to dominate Halloween/horror fans. Nevertheless, market competition proved to be too much. Look for Carrieto grab $17 million this weekend.

stuart360 Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 (edited) Why do people keep going on whether Moretz is a box office draw?. if this was a standard 'rom com' or something then yeah maybe but i doubt people are going to see Carrie because of Moretz, they are seeing it for the story or they liked the book or the orig film etc. Edited October 19, 2013 by stuart360 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forg Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Yikes for Carrie add to that the B- cinemascore then the movie's box office prospect is bleak Yay Gravity! And good numbers for Captain Phillips as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babz06 Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 My take on Moretz: she's very young, not meant to be a big draw yet--that's why Moore was cast as the veteran supporting anchor in this. Moretz still has a very bright future ahead. She has another co-leading film next year opposite Denzel Washington. I think they are trying really hard to make her a big teen star but she's wayy off from being a box office draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
