Impact Posted August 17, 2015 Author Share Posted August 17, 2015 expectations are probably around 8-10 million OW at best. Although if this opened around 30 Minutes Or Less that's a nice start. Considering I don't even have it that high for it's total Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mahnamahna Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Straight Outta Compton - 34.3M Sinister 2 - 23.1M American Ultra - 15.4M Hitman: Agent 47 - 11.3M Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation - 11.2M The Man From U.N.C.L.E. - 6.8M The Gift - 4.2M Minions - 4.1M Ant-Man - 4.1M Vacation - 3.8M Ricki and the Flash - 3.1M Fantastic Four - 3.0M What's scary is that sub-45% drop prediction might end up being spot-on... and then $200 million DOM becomes extremely likely. Rooting for it to beat Coal Miner's $202 million adjusted gross. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 So this weekend's new releases are two of the most obvious examples of COMPLETELY unnecessary sequels/reboots/whatever in recent memory both currently in the single digits on RT and niche-y comedy that is mostly being dumped. Yep, summer is over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impact Posted August 21, 2015 Author Share Posted August 21, 2015 Well I don't think any of the studios are expecting the 3 new releases to be hits at all or else they would of had better dates. The next few weeks look very boring. (I still can't believe Compton is doing that well-can't stand rap music though, so don't ask my opinion of the film-which I will never see) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DealWithIt Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 (edited) So this weekend's new releases are two of the most obvious examples of COMPLETELY unnecessary sequels/reboots/whatever in recent memory both currently in the single digits on RT and niche-y comedy that is mostly being dumped. Yep, summer is over. A Hitman movie needs to be a suspenseful thriller. 47 is made in a lab to be a killing machine and not much more. Instead, for the second time, they've made him a duel wielding pistol action hero with a female sidekick. The early trailers looked somewhat promising but then they went the other direction with the latest trailers. Oh well. A Sinister sequel could've worked but apparently the child actors suck and the visual style the first one had is absent here. Eh I'll pay for another movie that starts around the same time to give it my business instead of Sinister and then just go and see Sinister. Loved the first one and maybe this one will at least have a few good scares or one of those creepy ass home movies the first did so well.

Very nice. With Labor Day coming up this should cross $190m by a healthy margin hopefully.

filmlover Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) I don't get the high predictions above for We Are Your Friends above. The marketing/visibility is completely nonexistent, it's getting a very low theater count, Efron is far from a reliable draw, and the movie itself seems really low-rent and without a discernable target audience. Seems like an obvious sub-$5M opener. Edited August 23, 2015 by filmlover 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Warner Bros are really only paying for distribution and marketing for WAYF as the film was made and financed by Studiocanal so I imagine WB aren't expecting it to do huge numbers.
