Weekend Numbers (IDEN $1.91m/ GOTG: $10.16m; #s pg 1 & 10)

[Jandrew]

They will stay there until September 19 when The Maze opens and Neeson arrives.

 

I feel like this is a big climax giveaway.

[Jandrew]

My god, I just assumed the Sunday number would go down since more Christians would prefer to attend an evening Mass than go see a movie. Because, you know, my family goes to the evening Mass every Sunday. 

And not all Christians go to mass either.

[TalismanRing]

Actually, when you put it like that, it doesn't seem so bad.

 

It's pretty bad when you go past the top 10 and look at total B.O. and these aren't adjusted for inflation #s.

If estimates hold, at $64M, this weekend's cume for all films in release will be the lowest total in over a decade.

I have read the book. You have no idea what is coming That is far from the ending.

Spoiler alert: One of them gets Prometheus'd because he doesn't know how to run to the side

I find it annoying when there is judgementalism on either side, both take these types of jabs at each other and it's silly.

According to M-W dictionary, JUDGEMENTALISM ISN'T EVEN A WORD!!!!  Just kidding.  And I agree with you.  BTW, my post wasn't meant to be a jab, just a clarification.  I'm finding more and more that people have rather...misinformed...perceptions about Christians.  It's a far cry from the way things were when I was growing up, so I'm all for explaining things.  No harm, no foul.

 

Oh, and the numbers look rather decent all things considered.

Hey, I didn't mean any offense by my response.  I thought I was being rather lighthearted actually.  Friends? 

 

Oh, and the numbers look pretty good all things considered.

When you put it that way, it's awful.

[TServo2049]

And if it IS adjusted, this weekend is the worst, both in terms of top 12 and cume, in over TWO decades: http://www.boxofficemojo.com/weekend/?yr=1994&sort=sumgross&order=ASC&adjust_yr=2014&p=.htmYou youngins don't remember when early May was the deadest part of the year....

He's not an ambi-turner!

[vc2002]

Stunning hold from GOTG. 320m?

Zoolander can't turn left, neither can he

So much in store. The trailers are teasing it so well, I think a lot of people will be surprised. I also do think that the Sept 19 weekend will be the end to these dog days

[Caladbolg]

That's a pretty big Sunday drop for Guardians and a few other movies, maybe actuals could in higher.

People watching NFL.  Anyways there are no good movies coming up for few weeks, so they will have good legs still November.

[Maxmoser3]

Football will help bring the actuals down for under 10 million

[druv10]

Football will help bring the actuals down for under 10 million

 

Disney already accounted for that with over 51% drop on Sunday. 

[Harpospoke]

Agreed.   I doubt Massachusetts could hold them all.

[Spidey Freak]

Nobody predicted those numbers for Maleficent, TASM2, TMNT, and those Dragon 2 and Guardians numbers would have been laughed at.And by nobody I really do mean nobody. Even the most pessimistic tasm2 predicts during early April were around 230m and everybody had dragon over the first.

 

Naah, there definitely were sub-200M predicts for TASM2. But that was more wishful thinking on some haters' parts. Dragon OTOH though.
