Weekend Thread. Friday Numbers: Equalizer 12.8-14.5, Box 5.6-6.8m, Maze 4 (Rth)

[DeeCee]

In Australia, MA is about equivalent to R.

Not really. Maybe if it was MA17+ and not MA15+. Although movies rated R by the MPAA tend to be rated MA15 in Australia.

Wow, TMR just keeps increasing. Any chance for 18M?

So Equalizer will make it into the top 5 biggest September opening weekends.

Maybe even the top 3 if it can beat Sweet Home Alabama (35.6 m).

[Noctis]

Fantastic drop for Runner. 

[kayumanggi]

So THE EQUALIZER is the biggest September opener that is rated R?

That hold for TMR is just aces...100 is in play.

[CJohn]

That hold for TMR is just aces...100 is in play.

It needs to hold very well over the next few weekends because the weekdays are atrocious.
