Wednesday #s: ANCHORMAN 2 8.1M/ It's in a glass case of emotion / Hobbit (4.855m) / CF (1.243m)

So I guess the question is now: Does ANCHORMAN 2 warrant a What Went Wrong thread or it too soon for that??? Never thought I'd asking this question for a movie like this that seemed such a shoe in.. Congrats to Dexter if this should fall flat..

 

I'd wait till at least Saturday to see how the weekend might shake out, since this had its release moved up rather late.

Or at least wait until the holidays start.

B-don't give up yet bro.  I have confidence this can do pretty damn well this weekend...obviously not as well as your absurd predictions but damn well.  I still see this having a very good take over the holidays

I think we have been jumping to conclusions 

The DoS "apocalypse" started Thursday night.

'What went wrong with Anchorman' has already begun!

I want to discuss why 'The Wolf of Wall Street' is performing like a piece of shit.

They changed the release date very late so I doubt we can read too much into these numbers. Wait for the Friday jump before writing this off.

How late was it?

[Accursed Arachnid!™]

Maybe everyone's at home watching Lone Ranger on Blu-Ray instead of going to the movies... yeah that must be it!!

Anchorman 2 about to start at the same time, same theatre as I saw Catching Fire. For what it's worth there's probably about 20% less people.

Box Office - My sources: Will Ferrell 'Anchorman 2' opened with B Cinemascore for $8M Wed. Expected $30+M weekend and $45+M first five days.

Just what I thought it would do. What the hell is wrong with that numbers?

[TLK]

B cinemascore isn't good for a sequel.

Rth, any updates on DoS?

So another hugely overpredicted victim by fanboys around here (some were even calling 70/90m 5days and 200m+ lol).

 

Fanboys are so untrustable. @Godzilla @DOFP

It's December, let it have its run first.

8m od is disappointing. No spin pls.

I know.

[Rthmessiah]

Yeah 8m is doable

[Noctis]

How come we don't have DoS estimates? 

[Rthmessiah]

I gave rough one much earlier which hasn't changed 5m
