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

[Empire]

94.3 is a great OW for guardians! I am happily shocked it opened this high!

[TalismanRing]

I can see it grossing more if there is no competition in that April. Something like 33/75.

 

I was going to say maybe it picked up more fans from video and the I looked at it's approx DVD/Blu Ray #s at Numbers.

Highest OW for a non-sequel in 2014. GOTG may well keep the title until the end of the year.

I think there's something wrong with that chart.

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

 

So CA:TWS due to the GotG drive-in & double feature bump is looking likely to get that round $260m figure now.

It's DVD/BR release is set for mid-September so perhaps Labor Day weekend is it's last hurrah? Pulled out before then?

 

Great for Godzilla. While I wanted more monster mayhem like others I didn't just loathe it. Felt it's legs would've been a bit better so glad to see it get that $200m.

 

EoT struggling for $100m now. I think the marketing hurt that film more than anything cause while it was Groundhog Day meets Starship Troopers it was also more a bit more than that and the marketing team didn't hint at that. Studio pushing this to $100m for the Cruise name? Any other actor and they'd let it die on the vine I think.

that chart is somewhat messed up. I remember the numbers being a big higher, Still though they weren't much. 

[La Binoche]

Maleficent 

Domestic:  $234,740,473  32.3% + Foreign:  $492,584,000  67.7% = Worldwide:  $727,324,473  

[Mulder]

GoTG doing 90+ OW and Godzilla going past 200 million in the same weekend

The fact that they have DVD sales over Bluray sales is kinda insane. A movie like that never sells more on DVD nowadays, so something is definitely wrong.

Disney had TDW in theaters until the w/e TWS came out - and it was out on DVD in Feb.  TWS will be available for streaming/ VOD I think Aug 19th.

Yeah or it could be the Blu Ray was priced to expensively for a film people decided to just take on a chance on picking up. Hard to tell especially since I don't think The Numbers is getting numbers directly from the studios.

 

Edit: just checked at the $$$ amount is empty for Blu Rays for the first few weeks so that explains how the totals are off.

I suppose it's possible they were literally giving the movie away on blu ray for the first six weeks. I feel like it would have been bigger news, though.

Godzilla finally reached $200M.

[Blankments]

Gotta love how everyone yesterday was freaking out about Guardians legs because "it was overestimated"

Finally though. I've waited and waited for this.
