I loved Space Jam when it came out, and i don't give a shit if it looks stupid today, back then was awesome.

My two cents: I've seen some higher numbers floating around for 3 Days and Lego, but after the Jack Ryan thing, wanting to stay conservative on 3 Days especially. A $28-30m weekend for Lego sounds very reasonable, though.

Considering the amount of effort they put into an accurate historical portrayal, the song would have fit in perfectly.

And it wouldn't be any different than putting War Pigs in your marketing

I already liked your post, but I honestly am struggling to figure out what's going on in that bevy of activity in the ring.

 

(Probably because I'm about to pass out over my desk.)

This amazing moment to close WM 20 was 10 years ago. Both dead now, in completely different circumstances.

Go home Nikki, you're drunk.

Nikki Finke ‏@NikkiFinke  42s

Friday Box Office: #2 is Kevin Costner-starring '3 Days To Kill' (Relativity - 2872 runs) for mere $4.1M and $12.7M wkd.

[Shawn Robbins]

If Lego is near $10m today, the $300m debate may be over... 

 

But I'll believe it in the morning from WB themselves.

Oh, dear Nikki multipliers.

[grim22]

I would say there is a 90% chance Ray will use "Pompeii fails to erupt" in his weekend report

 

Nikki Finke ‏@NikkiFinke  1m

Friday Box Office: #3 Paul W S Anderson's 'Pompeii' (Sony/TriStar - 2658 runs) opens to disastrous $3.4M and $10.5M wkd at $100+M cost.

So Pompeii + 3 Days on day 1 is no where close to Lego on Day 15...LOL

[Ozymandias]

Lmao @ Pompeii numbers and @ Hollywood spending 100m on such horrible crap for shlock-maestro, Paul W.S. Anderson.
