K1stpierre Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) Because this summer hasn't seen a failure as LOL-worthy as Sin City's. No seriously, for as dull as this summer has been there hasn't been any real bombs (at least Expendables 3 has an excuse). Edge of Tomorrow is somewhat a bomb (not to that degree). Jersey Boys too kind of flopped. Edited August 31, 2014 by k1stpierre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Panda Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Feel like they are underestimating their Sunday estimates for both GOTG and TurtlesThat would be nice, it'd be nice to see a 3 day increase for guardians 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lab276 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Happened a lot in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013.Only in 2010, not those other years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moviefanatic Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Edge of Tomorrow is somewhat a bomb (not to that degree). Really wish that movie would have done WWZ numbers or something. Was definitely in the top 5 for me this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moviefanatic Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 That would be nice, it'd be nice to see a 3 day increase for guardians Yea...thinking it will increase closer to 10 percent today. Not enough to have a 3 day increase from last weekend but that 1 percent increase just seems too low. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Yep, I weep for humanity. Generic Marvel movie with talking tree and raccoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookie Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Edge of Tomorrow is somewhat a bomb (not to that degree). EoT at least saved face with good legs and strong OS. Sin City will likely have neither of those. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ando918 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I'm going to cry for hours when Ninja Turtles passes Dragon 2 domestically. Anyone know where I can find cheap Kleenex? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only in 2010, not those other years.Actually, looking further back, it happened in 2010, 2009, 08, 06, 05, 04, 02 etc... Only in recent years has there been a big jump. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lab276 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 EoT did 365M WW on a 175M budget.Pretty decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incarnadine Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 It looks like most of the holdovers are doing really well and the openers suck. It looks like Let's be Cops is doing surprisingly well under the radar, it's already over 57m on a 17m budget. I found it to be wildly uneven, but the parts that worked were hilarious. I find Jake Johnson to be quite naturally funny and hope he lands a role in a better written comedy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it's all said and done they'll have made a profit of say 160-170M. It's not bad, just thought it would have been better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iceroll Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 - 23 How to Train Your Dragon 2 Fox $1,140,000 +127.9% 1,096 +743 $1,040 $173,470,000 $145 12 Pretty good expansion for HTTYD2, it might even reach 175m. - 32 X-Men: Days of Future Past Fox $450,000 +207.4% 794 +606 $567 $233,265,000 $200 15 Not so great for DOFP though, it still won't beat The Last Stand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noctis Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Also...it's amazing how Noah and EoT have borderline identical grosses both domestically and overseas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moviefanatic Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Jeez...this is the second expansion for DOFP and both times they were meh. Darn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ent Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) I said it before but say it again, DOFP is part of an old franchise featuring the same leads. When you are into the 7th movie, it's basicly about retaining what is left of your fanbase than attracting new consumers so late in the lifespan of your franchise....at least at home and in older overseas markets.
