[Ezen Baklattan]

HOLY FUCK WALKING ALONE AND NUMBERS THEORY

spoiler alert

 

basically March is gonna have one big breakout and a lot of disappointments

[Dr Awesome]

Well there's Teen Titans, which just took the CAYOM February record, and will be in it's third weekend when If... comes out.

True but besides that the only two animated films haven't some as well as one would have hoped.

Blank, that Numbers Theory number is just excessive. It's more of a slow burn thriller than an action flick (more of an Isolation than a Vengeance or The Horn). Damn, and it's my film too!!!

Actually tortoise run has done way better than anyone hoped or expected (like at least 20-30 million above highest expectation) but that was a B grade animation that has already stopped earning. But I do agree with your point with ice desert

It's obviously Thin Fat and Felon. I mean, it's YOUR film.

So I have Numbers Theory at 165-170 million currently with about 15-18m more left in the tank.

 

So it will not beat Wolves of the Deep for highest grossing Liam Neeson solo outing. That harsh 4th weekend drop definitely was the deciding factor. Of course the fact that it even posed a threat to Wolves is just mind-numbing.

In retrospect, I think I would've had it have a harsh weekend drop ala Drive. Oh well

God damn it Blank, that's my second film to greatly underperform despite good reviews and predictions! Did I run over your dog or something?

Both nervous and excited at the same time for March actuals.

 

*tries not to make reference to a particular show*

Why is the theater count for Peace at Last so high lol

Because obviously that movie will have a $100 million opening weekend, have a 20x multiplier and earn $5 billion worldwide.

Oh joy. So at least three of my films are going to disappoint this quarter. 

 

Ah, who am I kidding? My luck's not that good. All four of my films are going to disappoint this quarter.

Don't worry; that's all I have to say

Phoenix Wright is making back its budget at least 10X over. That's not bad

guess Black Cat is gonna break out hahaha

[rukaio101]

See, in my current paranoid stupor, there are two different ways I can take that. 

 

a) Don't worry, your other films won't do too badly.

 

or

 

b ) Don't worry. It'll all be over soon.... *sinister Varrick smile*

 

The second is far more creepy. And, according to my general paranoia against the universe, far more likely.

Huh. Wow. Those legs/overseas totals should interesting. What should be even more interesting is how Part 2 performs later in the year and how much the positive WOM will help.

As I mentioned in the blurb, Wright is very friendly for OS with the video game being more popular out of the US and the appealing cast.

 

Just didn't see much break-out appeal in the US though

S'alright. I always thought it would be a bit of a hard sell. Wasn't expecting it to have a lower OW than The Cave though...
