terrestrial Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Deadline's Anita Busch is on vacation it seems My colleague Anita Busch, Deadline’s box office maestro, is on a well-deserved vacation this weekend. But she’s not the only one taking a break: most of the major distributors aren’t opening any wide releases Friday. It’s the first time since 1990 that a major studio, sister classic label, or mini-major hasn’t bowed a frosh wide release in the post-Labor Day frame–quite often the lowest grossing weekend of the year. ......The Identical starring Ray Liotta and Ashley Judd. ..... is eyeing a $4-5M weekend haul at 1,954 engagements. Guardians of the Galaxy is looking to hold on to No. 1 with an estimated three-day take of $8-10M on 3,221, but will likely cross the $300M mark stateside next week. ...... Cantinflas will continue to expand, with hope of breaking into the top 10. Seven times since 2000, the post-Labor Day frame has earned the title of being the lowest grossing weekend at the box office in a given year. The obvious reasons for the market bottoming out are always attributed annually to the under 25 demo heading back to school, and the start of the NFL season. ... ...So if there’s money to be made, why aren’t any distributors stepping out this weekend? . That’s because there’s triple threat looming over the weekend B.O., waiting to snatch any male under 25: the release of Activision’s $500 million-budgeted sci-fi shooter videogame, Destiny. Yes, the videogame will hit store shelves on Tuesday, but many distributors see the videogame as a monkey wrench waiting to be thrown into exhibitors’ turnstiles midweek. Look ahead on the release calendar, and you’ll see that next weekend is also void of any titles catering to guys under 25, read Warner Bros. family sequel Dolphin Tale 2 and Screen Gems’ African-American thriller No Good Deed. The studios have obviously prepped for the Destiny hurricane. Statistical arguments have been made in the past that mega-videogame franchise title launches hardly make a dent in a film’s ticket sales. Last November, wedged between Thor: The Dark World‘s first and second weekend (respectively $85.7M and $36.6M; Thor 2 would make more than its first chapter stateside, $206.4M to $181M ) was the record $500 million single day sales of Activision’s Call of Duty: Black Ops 2. But that was a scenario of fighting fanboy fire with fanboy fire during a vibrant pre-holiday box office season. This time it’s different. Destiny is hitting store shelves during the sleepiest box office month. Among videogames “it’s the equivalent of Avatar,” cries one major studio distribution marketing.

The year's top grosser so far has now accumulated $283.6 million through 34 days of release, 1.3 percent ahead of the pace of Marvel's first Iron Man. Yesterday marked the film's first day below the $1 million mark, a streak it maintained for an impressive 33 days--six more than Captain America: The Winter Soldier and just five short of Iron Man. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles posted $0.546 million yesterday for a 50 percent week-to-week decline. The reboot continues to impress relative to pre-release expectations as its total now stands at $167.7 million--25 percent ahead of G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra at the same point in release. ..... http://pro.boxoffice.com/statistics/bo_numbers/daily/2014-09-04?force_kind=true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
