Weekend numbers thread:TMNT: 28.4 GOTG: 24.7 LBC. 17.7 Ex3: 16.2

[jj99]

 

Ninja Turtles is holding as expected. As the writeup on BOM points out, it's about in line with G.I. Joe's second Friday hold five years ago; if it follows that film's weekend pattern, it will finish the frame a bit over $25 million.

 

I was really rooting for Guardians of the Galaxy to return to #1, but it's still doing very well (and won't finish that far behind Turtles in second).

 

Ouch for Expendables 3. There was a lot working against it, sure, but to see it drop 44% from its predecessor's performance two years ago is alarming.

 

Let's Be Cops is doing okay.

 

The Giver had a "meh" start, as expected. Even with the long-standing recognition for the book, a movie adaptation is still a difficult sell given that so many other adaptations have covered similar ground.

 

But But But...

GI Joe was released in March and only had a +60% Jump on friday. not really comparable.

TMNT is having a better Friday to Friday drop than Captain America: The First Avenger

Did TMNT's second weekend go up against Deathly Hallows Part 2?

Deathly Hallows Part 2 opened before TFA. It also dropped 72% when TFA opened

I gather you mean TFA - and it opened against DH2 second w/e ($47m) when that still took most of the big and specialty screens.  In TFA's second weekend it was third after Smurfs ($35m) and Cowboys & Aliens ($36m) and then Apes opened it's 3 w/e ($55m)

Deathly Hallows Part 2 opened before TFA. It also dropped 72% when TFA opened

 

Did it?  Shit, I thought that was TF3 that opened first and then DH2 after.
