JohnnyGossamer Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Seems pretty good. Seems very much on pace for $235M+. And, if holds better than expected this weekend, possibly $250M+. We'll see... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a2k Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) CA2 dropped 31% last Wed. So a 26% drop this week with a much bigger Tue bump is great. Edited April 17, 2014 by a2knet 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wileECoyote Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Not a bad drop at all for Caps. With some professionals and many students off Friday, will it see an increase in sales today?If it follows pattern it should go up. The last Easter in April was in 2012 on the 8th and all holdovers had a bump on the comparable Thursday. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 So let's say it does 3.7 today Friday: 9.8 Sat: 14.7 Sun: 10.0 Okay, my numbers are way off. That's a 15% drop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forg Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) Perhaps one day, those who sign the checks in Hollywood will put a big budget and a real cast in one of these films and more people will see it. Heaven is For Real has a good cast (Greg Kinner, Kelly Reilly, Thomas Haden Church, Margo Martindale) and the look of the movie does not look low budgeted and may likely appeal to a more broader audience Edited April 17, 2014 by forg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 So going by the Easter weekend in 2012, all the numbers are screwed up this weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ent Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 BoxOffice @BoxOffice · 10m GOD'S NOT DEAD took in $0.61M on Wednesday. Domestic total now stands at $42.85M. #GodsNotDead BoxOffice @BoxOffice · 18m Strong $3.7 mil debut for #HeavenIsForReal. Enough to push #CaptainAmerica out of first place on Wednesday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forg Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 The Power of Greg Kinnear is For Real. Well this is a good for him after his TV series Rake flopped 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jandrew Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) I think the "Heaven" aspect will help HIFR. The concept of heaven isnt just a Christian concept. Theyre not preaching here like Gods Not Dead, just making an inspirational movie. Jews and Buddishts and who else should be able to check out HIFR, even athiests could be intrigued. Theyre taking more a "my son saw the unimaginable" approach rather than "you need to believe in God" like Gods Not Dead. The main catch of the movie is Heaven, not really religion, so I wont be surpised if it crosses religious borders.

Easter w/e will have a flat or slight rise on Saturday and bigger fall than normal on Sunday. Hunger games had 40% rise on Thur - 100% on Friday 1.7% for Sat then a bit larger drop than usual for Sun If Cap behaved the same that would be $5.18 Thur/ $10.4 Friday/ $10.5 Sat/ $6 Sun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

narniadis Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Yeah Friday historically counts for a much larger percentage of the Easter weekend than normal - in some cases with openers it can be over 50% 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I personally enjoy Christian films with my girlfriend. So many of them are painfully cheesy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
