Oof.

So glad I picked under $2m midnights for the BSG.

 

But I went too bullish on the actual weekend number

[Kalderic]

Oh shit... That's bad... Really bad. Lol so sub 20M weekend?

[John Marston]

What did ex2 make?

One last promo, Top 100 animated films deadline is Monday, click the link in my Sig

It wasn't worth mentioning by BOM in their report, so I doubt it was much.

[CaptainJackSparrow]

Sigh...

[filmlover]

The dog days of summer are upon us, people.

We've got a sub-$20M weekend for EX3. 

[filmscholar]

Not Strong for EX3 Sorry.  EX3 is not winning the Weekend.  So they went PG13 for that?

[CoolioD1]

most of the movie's fanbase were in bed by 7pm anyway. do retirement homes have curfews?

PG-13 isn't what's hurting it, the pirated leak is. 

[Alpha]

Oh yeah, I almost forgot.

 

 

[The Panda]

Yeah, it also doesn't help that Mel Gibson hasn't been in a hit since he went nuts.

The first Expendables did 870,000 and Expendables 2 did 685,000. The big difference here, those were just for midnight shows. While this movie opened at 7 and had at least 3 or 4 showings in most theaters. With the movie showing on over 2,000 screens last night.

while i do not think the expendables 3 is going to be a big hit simply because of a download but this midnight number is really no different than the last minite number. I will hall judgement until the weekend. It was still do more than 20 million in my opinion.

EX2 happened just a few weeks after Aurora.

It was 3 weeks after Aurora, so I am thinking "not that much".

I feel like it's always impossible to prove the impact of piracy. Remember, Taken did nearly $150M despite the fact that a high-quality bootleg was out and about for like an entire year before it opened here.
