MovieGuyKyle17 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I'm a little surprised to be starting Wednesday's numbers this early but hey here we go Heaven Is For Real is headed towards at least $3.7mil on its opening day today for TriStar Pictures with estimates looking like $20M for the 5-day, according to Sony. The best news is that the film, based on the best-selling Christian book, got an A+ CinemaScore for those 35 and under and an A overall. The film is the latest in the faith-based genre to bow this year, following Son of God and God’s Not Dead, however this one is right in time for Easter weekend.http://www.deadline.com/2014/04/heaven-is-for-real-bows-with-3-7m-wednesday-estimate-for-sony/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecstasy Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 20m for 5 day? I thought it would be more. Would expect the 3 day to be close to 20m or more. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecstasy Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) It will be interesting to see how accurate they are. Agree Empire. It looks like it will be higher than Cap 2 though to take the #1 spot for Wednesday. Edited April 17, 2014 by ECSTASY 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 That seems like a really good number to me given the film is bound to have a huge Easter boost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fancyarcher Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) Good number. Over 20 million five day opening is basically locked at this point. Edited April 17, 2014 by Fancyarcher 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitik Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 3.7 seems more than good enough, and I would say that it should easily hit 20 for the 5-day, but this is the time of year when movie-going habits get all jumbled up, so I'm not sure anything is set in stone for this weekend just yet. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harley Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Deadline is only expecting a 20 million 5 day total. I figured it would be higher. At least beat Son of God's opening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
