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

[Accursed Arachnid!™]

At the rate it's going, it'll hit $260m unless it deviates significantly from AUJ's legs (which it hasn't yet). Not that that's an amazing gross or anything, but it's definitely not "it's fucked" territory. That would have been something like sub-$200m domestic/$700m global.

How  can you compete with Rob Schneider ... Star Trek had no chance.

 

... The Hot Chick ... Rachel McAdams was winning back then. Love her.

I imagine the marketing budget is likely double the production budget, $50m is okay for a comedy and a sequel, $80-100m is IMO far too much unless you're a proven seller like Adam Sandler, The Other Guys was $100m as was Little Fockers although the former was quite action heavy plus had Ferrell and Wahlberg and the other was I'm guessing mostly salaries for Stiller and DeNiro. The most expensive comedy was How Do You Know with Paul Rudd, Owen Wilson, Jack Nicholson and Reese Witherspoon which cost $120m which bombed which didn't need to cost as much as it did.

most expensive comedy is Evan Almighty a Edited December 19, 2013 by Goffe Luvs 1D

Soft start for AM2. It's going to need a big jump on Friday for 50M+ 5-day. 

[Impact]

Thor 2 and Catching Fire both had sold out showings this afternoon!

[Mango]

I think Anchorman is going to skyrocket come Friday and probably won't come down until after New Years.

That's pretty disappointing. I guess wait and see though, it's Christmas after all.

Just got back from "Grudge Match". Thoroughly enjoyable movie, it has its occasional detours into melodrama, but pretty sure this will play well with families and an older audience. It may make "Rocky Balboa" type numbers this Christmas.

[Impact]

I think Walter Mitty will be the hit with families this Christmas for ones not yet old enough for Hobbit.

Now the 2 films over Christmas that wont do well are Believe and Ronin.

[eXtacy]

AM2 fail  , knew it was being way to over-hyped

 

Anyway I'm probably seeing it tonight

The audience I watched it with seemed to enjoy Walter Mitty. But preview audience reactions are probably not the best indicator.

[Impact]

Well Fox seems to be the king of Christmas time.

[Empire]

I  not thinking atm its doing more than 7 but I just saw BOG say 8-9 hmm

DOS around 5

Its too bad it went down, but thanks for the # anyways.

 

Also, love the new AV.

[Impact]

Didn't see it doing as well as most were saying. But don't panic yet-it moved to Wednesday at the last moment (Gee Paramount, you love to change dates at the last moment don't you?), as well as it is Christmas time.

[JarJarBinks]

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