Looks like Fury will take first. GG strong second.

GG strong second.

 

 

I wouldn't be so sure about that. The Book of Life should be able to hit 20M this weekend.

Very good for Fury. How much did Boxtrolls take on previews? I think it did more than Book of Life.

Boxtrolls did a bit under $200,000

Alexander a bit under $150,000

 

Also The Best of Me -  $525K (starting at 8 PM)

Whoa, quite the number for Fury, all things considered. 30 million looks likely. Great marketing campaign.

[grim22]

Looks like 30+ for Fury can happen. Around 20 for Book of Life and Best of Me.

[cookie]

30m+ for Fury and 20m+ for Book of Life would be fantastic for both.

[filmlover]

The Best of Me did $525,000. Probably not even gonna top $15M this weekend, but I can't say I'm surprised.

The Best of Me did $525,000. Probably not even gonna top $15M this weekend, but I can't say I'm surprised.

Have women finally grown tired of Nicholas Sparks?

[Ezen Baklattan]

Apparently the book is really bad, even for Nicholas Sparks.

Have women finally grown tired of Nicholas Sparks?

I mentioned it in another thread but this really didn't have an appealing hook outside of its Sparks connection, and Gone Girl plus a slew of other movies like Fury are sucking up all the oxygen at the box office. Thus, you're not left with much of an audience.

Have women finally grown tired of Nicholas Sparks?

I dont think so. This wasnt the best release date for it (imo). Would have done optimal business during Feburary (valentine's day) or March/April. The release date may have been alright if there wasnt so much competition already.

current rottentomatoes:

 

- Fury 78% after 121 reviews, 7.0 rating

- The Book of Life 79% after 63 reviews, 7.0 rating

- The Best of Me 6% after 54 reviews, 3.4 rating

 

 

For next week, John Wick is still at 100% after 14 reviews.

[Blankments]

Hope Book of Life does well. Looks a lot more appealing to me than Big Hero 6

[tonytr87]

Somehow, even with the good reviews, I'm just not interested in Fury.

October 2014 is on fire!

[kayumanggi]

Average ticket price in Q3 2014 was $8.08. That's up 3.1% from Q3 2013, but down 3% from Q2 2014. Year-to-date average price: $8.12.
