Argo and Intouchables are doing great!And BD2 was down about 15% at my site for midnights and was equal (or up 1-2% depending on really late sessions) for today.

[Robertron]

Such a shame about End of Watch - it's an insane movie that deserves so much more!

OD numbers? Rth?

[RthDeadWov]

looking to be around 3.5m 3rd biggest opening this year behind TA & TDKR, opening is under the last three in series (BD1 3.7m)

[Fake]

Thanks Rth.Behind BD1.... that doesn't sound too good.

[Totem]

Yep comparing the interest/buzz change from DH1 TO DH2 vs BD1 TO BD2, BD2 just hasn't had that increase in interest and now it looks like it may have less buzz/interest than BD1 had.

[Robertron]

Oh dear...Goodbye $13m OW... If anything this was going to be more frontloaded than BD1.

[Ball Lightning]

Not looking good. Looks like the decline continues..Thanks rth!

Oh dear...Goodbye $13m OW... If anything this was going to be more frontloaded than BD1.

And Skyfall is coming next weekend.

And Skyfall is coming next weekend.

Different audience but will definitely have a severe effect on screen count.

[Robertron]

How's BD2 flopping along, I mean going this weekend so far?

[Ball Lightning]

Friday was slightly above BD1, saturday was slightly below. At my work.

Hopefully makes at least 12m this weekend.I mean, given that it was bound to be more frontloaded than previous Twi's, a drop of $200k on OD could be much more sever for OW.

[RthDeadWov]

Depending on how Sunday fares BD2 eekend coulld be 11.5-12.5,been following similar patten to BD1 which means its should hit 12 for weekend

11.5-12.5?!?Oh dear. We've really lost our love for Twilight :S11.5m OW and we can kiss $20m goodbye - never thought I'd hear myself even think, let alone say that about twilight.

[Fake]

So Skyfall has a good shot at beating BD2's OW.

[Robertron]

Given the lackluster OW of BD2, and the fact that QoS made close to $12m in its 5-day OW, I'd say its highly likely it does.

[Robertron]

So just some quick thoughts on its OW.BD1s 3.7m OD into 12.1m IM: 3.3Based on that same IM, BD2 should JUST scrape by 11.5m.Given an obvious decline, I doubt it's IM will be that high, and even overall multi will be off from BD2.12.1m with a 2.35 multi gave BD1 28.4m finish.IF BD2 can finish with the same multi, which I highly doubt it will, it'd finish with a tad over $27m.Floppety flip flop floppy flippy mcfloppityville no matter how you spin it.

Don't let baumer hear you.
