Weekend Estimates: The Purge 28.3M | Apes 36M | Sex Tape 15M | Planes 18M | Godzilla 470k +91% 198.9m!!! | More Numbers on Page 1

[narniadis]

I just wanted to break the 200m record this year so Godzilla making it is a necessity.

[Moviefanatic]

Frankly, they should.  They're repetitive, boring, cliched, and totally unimaginative.  Is anyone really going to shed a tear if CA 231283080480 doesn't get made?  Or Iron Man 384023402308??  

I see your still on your pathetic comic book movie rant. Your stupid comment could be said about any genre. 

[Kalderic]

impressive if it comes up right about PA.. thats quite the bump from the estimates! Hopefully apes can find enough change somewhere to hope under that 50% mark.

[baumer]

That Sunday estimate for purge was really harsh in comparison to everything else so in not totally surprised. Good for it if it can cross the 30 mark.

they were just basing this Sunday number off of the first purge. That one plummeted on Sunday so they had no reason to think this one wouldn't as well.

are we all supposed to have the same opinion about every movie though? That its just their opinion about comic book movies. Why are you being so harsh?

Because it is starting to become a routine. BKB gets ragged on for his antics and users are harsh on him. Guess it depends on who you are.

well, like >50% of his total posts are ranting about the same thing so it's getting a little tired now.

superhero movies aren't a genre

True - I guess after the better Saturday hold that they would have eased Sunday a bit. But understandable. I would rather a studio undersell than oversell and have to backtrack.

Ok...? My point still stands. Same thing could still be said about comedies, action, horror, etc, etc.

So put him on ignore. Are your feelings hurt because he doesnt like Marvel movies?

Random numbers combinations ftw.

We can say it's a sub-genre of action movies.

BKB's opinions about movies aren't the problem with him.

Based on this article it doesn't look like theater owners get a lower share in this era.

55% seems to be the typical rate but I've gotten the impression that it can vary depending on the movie, studio, & chain. It wouldn't be the movie business without a little negotiation.

Way too much action. More like "Bella is distraught that Optimus is not reciprocating her advances, and spends half the movie crying a corner. Meanwhile in quick cutaways, we see the Transformers and the vampires/werewolves form a pact to hunt down the villains. But first, they play a quick game of Vampire/Autobot football (by quick I mean half the movie). Then in the last 10 minutes a giant battle occurs where everyone dies... but psych it turns out that is a future vision so they all peacefully part ways. Meanwhile, Bella and Optimus do a Cameron Diaz in 'The Counselor' kind of scene".
