Hash tag should say #FLOP

Well, I'm wrong then.

Godzilla's drop could be attributed to bad WOM.There's no other explanation for that.DOFP is performing like an X-men movie which are always front loaded. Added to the fact that the movie isn't great (it's just good but it's not great) hence the steep drop. It'll probably stabilize next week though.

what the record for highest OW to not reach 200M? at this rate, Godzilla might need a few magical monies to come in to get it there.

The movie is great. The drop is expected for a 4-day opener.

Shit. That's just awful.

[kayumanggi]

I enjoyed GODZILLA...a lot. I predicted 280 M but hey, 200 M or whatever gross around it is fine.

[kayumanggi]

Shit. That's just awful.

 

Did you expect a better number?

[Sam]

Rth is right on the money with holdovers so far. And AMW fell in the middle of his range. Probably will be the same for Maleficent.

[Manu Delpech]

Is that so surprising? A new blockbuster every week or 2 weeks --------------> legs blown to pieces

[Heat Vision]

Did you expect a better number?

 

I expected 4.5-5 million at least.

[TalismanRing]

Biggest drops of biggest openers

 

Looks like before Godzilla it was Wolverine at $85m making it just to $179.88m. Yikes - might make Godzilla look leggy.
