Pretty good for If I Stay. It should be #1 this weekend with $18M.

[CJohn]

1.1M? That is quite good actually. Curious to see how it performs over the weekend. 

 

EDIT: Edited the title to look better for the eyes  

Edited August 22, 2014 by CJohn

[Ethan Hunt]

So what are the chances that If I Stay is able to get 25M this weekend?

[James]

Really nice. I hope 'If I Stay' gets close to the higher end. Also, any word on Sin City's midnight? You'd think that with a built in (micro) fan base it will be front loaded and have decent previews.

Guess the over $20 million predicts could very well be right for If I Stay.

Rth mentioned that IIS's previews outgrossed Sin 2's and GAME combined.

[CJohn]

Sin City going for dat mega-bomb territory. 

 

Game is not a movie for previews. Can still do 12-13M OW.

So much for built in fanbase.

Holy shit. SC2 is targeting bomb territory.

[Mango]

Unless it ends up strangely front loaded, IIS is looking at a $20+ million weekend. Very good, for what it is.

[BenedictL11]

$425,000 for When the Game Stands Tall

[James]

$425,000 for When the Game Stands Tall

I see 'Trouble with the Curve' OW  (12M or so). 

[Alpha]

$425,000 for When the Game Stands Tall

 

It'll probably make over $10 million. An expected number.

[John Marston]

Lol still no numbers for Sin City
