kowhite Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 I'd add Tropic of Thunder - an actual R rated comedy from the 00s that made me laugh and mostly because of RDJ in black face. Ahh yes, of course. That's not just blackface...that's Oacar nominated blackface. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accursed Arachnid!™ Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 But in the case of ASM2 there wasn't any accommodated excess demand. There's nothing about these two films and their performance so far that's equatable except that they star Spider-man. That was my point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accursed Arachnid!™ Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 But Sony...oops, I mean Deadline wants you to do that for TASM2. They even asked nicely in their article earlier. Deadline thinks you can, lol. I am not responsible for Sony and Deadline's shenanigans. I do not live in Puerto Rico(old joke, I know). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecstasy Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 LOL They went back and revised their article from yesterday today. Come on Deadline it's not that serious. This is what they posted earlier. Mother’s Day box office weekend — The Amazing Spider-Man 2 in its sophomore frame or the R-rated frat prank comedyNeighbors starring Seth Rogen and Zac Efron, which is expected to have a stellar performance this weekend as word is that it truly delivers. The question comes down to how significant a drop Spidey will have this weekend. Taking away Thursday’s $8.7M gross and concentrating on the three-day weekend, the number to work with is ASM2‘s $82.9M three-day gross.http://www.deadline...._medium=twitter This is what the have there now: "The question comes down to how significant a drop Spidey will have this weekend. Taking away Thursday’s $8.7M gross and concentrating on the three-day weekend gross number only, ASM2totalled $82.9M." http://www.deadline.com/2014/05/neighbors-amazing-spider-man-2-office-race/ Bapi called them on it and I think his comment got deleted. At least I can't find it now. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blankments Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 A preview for next week: WARNER BROS. BOXOFFICE.COM baumer: I want to talk to ShawnMR. *We see a gif war aftermath in a thread* baumer: You’re not fooling anyone when you say what happened here was a natural wait for numbers. *We see people complaining about no numbers* baumer: You’re lying. It wasn’t an Nikki overdose, it wasn’t a Walmart fudge. *baumer sends a moderator PM* baumer: Because what’s really happening is that you’re hiding some numbers. *Complete utter desolation of the boards* baumer: And when the real numbers get out, they’re gonna send us back to the refugee boards! *We see Rth under active users. In the weekend thread, everyone freaks out in hopes of numbers.* baumer: God help us all. *A charter member team searches through an archived thread.* firedeep: On November 15, 2011, a certain member joined to eventually cause mass chaos. British woman: Those bannings in the weekend thread? *A banning is dropped on Rth to no effect* ECSTASY: Not accidents. firedeep: They were trying to kill it. NEXT WEEKEND *baumer and Spaghetti look off into the distance at destruction* baumer: You have no idea what’s coming! *firedeep looks scared at the camera* Spaghetti: Can you ban it? *A charter member team clicks out of an index into a devastated thread. baumer cries, seeing iJack for the last time.* firedeep: The arrogance of moderators is thinking the boards are in our control. *Something – a NEO – is taking down planes, one by one* firedeep: And not the other way around. *A team profile-stalks Rth. NEO posts terrifying predicts. Spaghetti reads the weekend thread, which is attacked by a thread de-rail; Aaron quickly clicks out of the thread and into the Marvel vs. DC thread. k2stpierre holds a baby Captain Jack Sparrow desperately. We get a clear shot of Rth about to post numbers.* GODZILLA OPENING WEEKEND THREAD MAY 2014 If you want to make a poster, Spaghetti, I’d like to be David Strathairn 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blankments Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 So... I hope you people all have Skype accounts because tonight is going to be the first official Skype Weekend Box Office Audio Chat hosted by #ED and me! When is it? 8PM PST/10PM CST/11PM EST How many people can fit? Technically 25! What if this ruins the weekend thread? I have the full intention of still posting so I can whore some likes! What will we talk about? My love life and Christopher Nolan. Maybe some numbers too. What if I don't have a Skype account? It's very easy to create, you can download it or it's already integrated with your Windows 8 ready machine. What if I don't have a Webcam/mic? Well....shit. You and your clique is ruining box office!
