filmlover Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Both the Mechanic and Hands of Stone are going to be miserable flops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impact Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 What will be the next big opener? Sully? When the Bough Breaks? Magnificent Seven? (or maybe 20M+ opener or even a 30M+ opener-as I said for M7 it is stilly iffy even if it does amazing in the state I live in that means nothing elsewhere as westerns tend to always do well here) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Obviously nothing is in contention for a $50M opening until Doctor Strange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see The Magnificent Seven and Storks (which could take advantage of a barren family marketplace since Ice Age/Pete's Dragon/Kubo didn't really excite them) pulling a The Vow/Safe House where they both open to $40M. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you can see $40M, but it's not in contention for $50M? I do admit that for now things seem a bit... subdued regarding this OW, but there's still a month left and I think it's gonna kick into high gear following the premiere and reviews from TIFF. I could definitely see it breaking the September record. I don't think that's a crazy prediction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if it will happen, but a lot of people seem to at least think this looks good, and it has Denzel and Pratt. I think it will be more about splitting the reduced adult audience at that point, but I think Pratt appeals to younger people too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impact Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 Well I was talking about the next 20M+ opener. (I could see Deepwater doing that well also-well 20M that is) Edit: Or 30M as I put in the post on the last page. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potential for a $20m opener this weekend if the theater count is high enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the trailer views are up, good marketing campaign, stellar reviews for a late August horror movie and a waste land of competition. No other horror on the market and all the openers from the previous week underperformed. The only thing concerning me is theater counts. It would be nice is Sony can push and get around 3,200 or so.

I honestly think it might not even go above 3000 theaters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
