Weekend Actuals 8/1-8/3 GOTG 94.3m Lucy 18.3m GOU 13.6m

[Blackout]

DOFP came in 1k below X3's same weekend...

 

[Caladbolg]

Fantastic opening for Guardians, exceeded even my optimistic expectations.

 

Another note, Cap should cross $260m now:

 

 

 

Captain America: The Winter Soldier

BV

$398,956

+193.1%

181

+18

$2,204

$259,322,890

$170

18

 

 

[The Panda]

So Cap 2 did get in some of that Guardians action. $260m?

Captain America: The Winter Soldier BV $398,956 +193.1% 181 +18 $2,204 $259,322,890 $170 18

I hope it makes it to 260m, 259.8 is ugly.

Has it made its Dollar theater run yet?

Nope, hopefully it is this week.

+193%?  Yeah looks like it got some bump.

[miketheavenger]

260m for Cap will happen. Unfortunately it more than likely won't pass TASM.

[ecstasy]

Nope, hopefully it is this week.

 

I still think it can get past Last Stand with a good dollar theater run. It needs a little less than 3m?

[Deep Wang]

Oh I so saved that post. I don't think he's been back since.

It reminded me of that person that just knew that Whitney Houston movie was going to make sooooo much money.

[CJohn]

Godzilla also passed the 200M. This was a good weekend.

I think he or she has been back. But yeah Sparkle. I saw that movie. LOL 100m.

Hopefully. It needs $2,666,125

Godzilla also passed the 200M. This was a good weekend.

 

It was certainly a struggle. But in the grand scheme of things the movie is still a huge success thanks to its 160m budget.

[CJohn]

Purge making close 70Lucy opening to 40+ mill and going past 100GOTG opening to 90+ millHTTYD2 opening and finishing softlyThese are the biggest surprises to me

I know legs were complete crap and it ended were we originally thought, but the Godzilla OW still amazes me. I would put it with those 4 you mentioned.

Wonder if Fox will keep it in theaters forever like they do all their other movies.

[John Marston]

Congrats to Godzilla to passing 200m, though having the worst legs of pretty much any major release this year, even worse than ASM 2,  is nothing really to write home about...

I see EoT had a 20% increase. WB is starting to work on the fudge for that one now that the Godzilla job is done

Yeah we put a lot of emphasis on legs but in the end money is money. Godzilla made a lot of it.
