Why did Frozen increase so poorly?  Its jump was much lower than Lego or Peabody.

[MasterDodsen]

Oh, nooooooooo!!!!!!!!!

 

Frozen is out of the top 10!

 

Still, though, 112 straight days is remarkably impressive, given the market of theatrical releases today.

 

I think it'll still be in the top 10 for the weekend.

 

400M is so close... yet so, so, so, SO very far away.

Maybe gamers didn't show up because

1.Need For Speed doesnt have a large fanbase and the fans it has aren't fans because of its cinematic qualities.

2.Most gamers know gaming movies suck and need for speed showed no reason it'd be different

3.Gamer is a really misused term, people can play video games and not be no life hermits who don't take showers and have no fiends. In fact I am willing to bet 95% of a gaming community like World of Warcraft (a game where most of the general public had stereotyped its players as such) are not like that. Those videos and pictures and news stories are the extremes.

4.This movie was never going to be a hit.

In reality, that Friday number is still really good, only down 16.6% from last Friday, it's just that the weekdays were so strong this week, with both Wednesday and Thursday increasing from last week making the Friday jump seem small.

yep... guess spring break is really messing with the weekday grosses (in a good way mind you )

Nikki's written some ridiculous shit while she was on Deadline but after seeing her 'replacements' write downright cringeworthy stuff like this I want her back in charge.

Pretty much. Whoever wrote the tweet can suck it. Christ, such outdated and untrue stereotypes.

107 straight days. The first five were limited release. It will pass up MM for the rest of the weekend though.And since it's keeping the drops under 20%, 400m is not that far away.

[The Stingray]

Only boring movies (BO-wise and otherwise) coming out. Cap needs to get here quick.
