CJohn Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Nah. WOM won't be strong enough to get it to those heights. $150m, maybe. I have yet to see it. It isn't as good as some are saying? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 (edited) I have a feeling Neighbors is going to be much loved by its target audience but not as much by those a bit older than 25. Not to say it won't be liked, because it will, but not loved. Edited May 10, 2014 by baumer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 That's the tagline for Alien vs. Predator. I think they were referring to the audience. I think I was just kidding around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoguy Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 (edited) ASM2's 10M second Friday means 71% drop from the first Friday! It could be even worse when we get the numbers this morning! Edited May 10, 2014 by Mojoguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to say it won't be liked, because it will, but not loved. Well, I'm in Uni, my show was filled with mostly students. And I liked it. But didn't love it. That was the general reaction from the people I was with, too. Edited May 10, 2014 by Heretic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoguy Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 This page should be pretty interesting over the next few weeks. CA2 has been dominating ASM2 daily since both started. http://www.boxofficemojo.com/showdowns/chart/?view=daily&id=superhero2014.htm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayumanggi Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 That is horrendous for TASM2. LOL at Oz number, but that should see a huge bump today. Any MNO numbers? Why, is 10.1 M terrible? People thought 11.5 M was too high, so 10 M should be the expected number, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think 11.5M was just Sony fudging the numbers to make ASM2 look good, the others studios were obviously going to cry foul... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking on inviting a few friends to go with me, but now I may just save that invitation for Godzilla or X-Men, since they don't see many movies in theaters.

It's not that it isn't funny, it is imo. It's just that it's no funnier than say Get Him To The Greek or something like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatrickvD Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 ASM2 is surely below 10 million. Also... a box office hit for Zac Efron?!?! Are we going to be skiing in hell soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, he's not really known for bombs. Every one of his films that went wide has done well except for That Awkward Moment. http://boxofficemojo.com/people/chart/?view=Actor&id=zacefron.htm Edited May 10, 2014 by baumer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 The thing about Efron is that his films don't tank. They actually do some business overseas and they are rarely made for big money. Charlie St. Cloud had the biggest budget and that still made back its production budget WW. And he's clearly trying to show that he can be more than a pretty face as he's done some challenging smaller films like Paperboy and Parkland.
