Early Friday Box Office: Holdover 'Godzilla' (WB/Leg-3952) looking $9.5M for $34.5M FSS (-63%) and $43.5M four-day Mem Wkd. Cume $160M.— Nikki Finke (@NikkiFinke) May 24, 2014

Oh boy....

BTW I hope to god that Nikki's wrong about Godzilla.

I guess it didn't blend in with the audiences.

Hmmm, I'm not sure audiences are itching for a Sandler/Farrel team up.

 

It's not like they were on SNL together like the Grown Ups crew,

True. I do know though 13 years old step-daughters are itching for Imax 3D screening of Maleficent next weekend

this movie was overestimated all the time. 95M OW seems the best scenario so far. 105MD 4 day maybe.

 

 

If it gets 95m 3 day, it's impossible to make only 10m on the holiday Monday.

Was hoping for a better drop, hopefully it does better in actuals

[grey ghost]

Blended's number makes me want to blend my arm in a blender. I had that as the family holiday breakout in the BSG.Dat Adam Sandler fatigue.

 

Tell me about it.

 

I put that turd in my top 15. 

[Fancyarcher]

So WB has one hit (Godzilla) and one flop (Blended) all in one week. Wow!

[wileECoyote]

Even lower than RTH number

The opposite of what the Forbes guy said would happen. 

[CaptainJackSparrow]

Thinking for Godzilla total will be between 230 to 240 mil now.

Nikki's usually wrong though..........hopefully.

Sandler and Ferrell are/were both the biggest breakout stars of their respective SNL generations. I think audiences would. And under the right circumstances, it could be embraced by critics and audiences alike.

 

Granted, they'd probably need additional namepower. But they'd probably want that over another reunion pairing as Blended's box office is suggesting

That's right in line with STID's Friday increase last year. Slightly better, actually.

[Godzilla]

Didn't she have it at 30-32M it for Friday last time? I'm not buying anybody's numbers except for Rth'sm I'm hoping the west coast doesn't disappoint and it ends ups with an $11M friday.

I'll wait until final Rth numbers, but the number seems to be in line with what I thought it would do.

[#ED]

Oh wow, WTF happened to Godzilla?

You're really pushing the Maleficent tickets, one by one.

Well we can't all be right all the time, can we?

I've been watching X2 on AMC. Glad to say it still holds up. And DOFP unseen, Magneto's prison break is still the best set piece
