[The Futurist]

Dancing Groot is winning America s hearts.

[kayumanggi]

I think it's gonna be GOTG and TMNT again for the weekend.

[kayumanggi]

Eh, I would argue CM Punk or Daniel Bryan are bigger stars.Bautista is a bigger star than people give him credit for though.

 

It's BATISTA. Ha ha. He is popular here since he is half-Filipino. Probably why GOTG is doing big numbers here.

 

Edit: Sorry, Bautista is his real last name. Batista is his ring name.

That is how he spells his wrestling name. His real name is spelled Bautista.

lol, not all movies I root for are successful aka PR.  However, my club success rate is 100%. 

[Ryan Reynolds]

Blame Weinstein for sub 10m for Sin City 2, it was originally scheduled for October 2013, not that it would break out

UPDATED, Saturday, 11:20 PM: Guardians of the Galaxy continues to hold the No. 1 spot in this weekend’s box office for Disney/Marvel as estimates have the newly created franchise pulling in around $7.5M or so today. That puts it at around $17.3M to $18M for the weekend. Paramount’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and newcomer If I Stay (WB/MGM) are going to be close as I’ve calculated $16.7M to $17M for the reptiles and $16.6M for the romancer based on the numbers I’m seeing now.http://deadline.com/2014/08/box-office-friday-if-i-stay-to-take-no-1-sin-city-2-tanking-in-dog-days-of-summer-823607/The holdover comedy Let’s Be Cops is next with roughly a $4.45M day so it’s on track to walk in $10.68M to $11M for Fox. Rounding out the Top Five is Sony’s When the Game Stands Tall which grossed about $3.45M today after a little bump on Saturday from families audiences (which helped the tentpole holdovers, too). We expect, the sports biopic to land around $9M which is right in line with this morning’s estimates.And where is Sin City 2, you ask? I can’t find it any … oh, wait, there it is … No. 8 with an estimated $2.2M gross today to to put it on track for a colorless $6.5M. Until the morning, that’s the black and white of it. Oh, and the box office weekend looks to be up about 6% from last year.

So glad to see that GOTG Sat. number. Beautiful! And the Turtle number is strong. Liked.Kind of sad IIS is not going to really break out, but WTActualF at Sin City 2? That number is disgusting.(BTW, so mixed on TASM2...)
