redfirebird2008 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I'm confused, didn't Godzilla's Sunday have a Canadian holiday as well? Does it extend to Monday? No, the holiday was Monday. The theory was that Sunday would perform more like Saturday in Canada. Didn't seem to make much of a difference judging by the Sunday drops. But the Canadian day off yesterday apparently helped Monday's gross. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#ED Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 It's not going to drop $870,000 from that estimate. Wouldn't be the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAR Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Godzilla will be at 300 million easily by next weekend. Let's see how much Days of Future Past slows down the big guy. Do you mean 200 million or 300 million ww? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olive Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Thanks Olive, for taking my "lock thread" virginity. My pleasure. STID dropped 63% on its first Monday, Godzilla's drop was 66% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stripe Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Todays number will be muted tho. Increases won't be as big. Maybe, but Godzilla will gross over CA2 every day of the week. It really bodes well for its chances to gross more than CA2 DOM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a2k Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 for stid tue and wed were -15% and -21% for potc4 they were -26% and -22% 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a2k Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I saw Godzilla yesterday. Was good, though not great. Agree with what folks have said here. The first hour did not build much tension or characters (accept for Cranston). Lot of forgettable chatter and scenes that don't build up anything. Ken was given a tragic screenplay. about 2 words in nearly every line - "let them fight","nevada","godjilla","kill it". The monsters and the last 30 mins were epic though. Great visuals, locales, sound. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great visuals, locales, sound. Those truncated, anti-climactic scenes (airport scene, first MUTO fight, Vegas rampage) feel strange, out-of-place and feel like they run out of footage or lost it somewhere in the editing room. There must be an extended edition of some sort on BluRay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great visuals, locales, sound. Agree. A great visual that I can't get out of my mind is when the bridge collapse and the train careened into the ocean Even though the script and acting was subpar, things like that made me glad I saw it on the big screen.

ecstasy Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I wonder how everything else held. Godzilla is the "must see" movie so I think Tuesday should be good for it as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
