Kvikk Lunsj Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 A 30m OW would be big for Dumb and Dumber to. I could see it going up for a 30m because the preview number being big. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Do they really expect BH6 to drop 47%? This second weekend of November has historically had great holds for animated films dating back to MI in 2001. If D&D gets first place it'll have to open with no less than like $37 million. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 50m OW is coming. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Actually I think I'm wrong. BH6 might have some difficulty making much more than $30 million over the weekend. I didn't realize it's weekdays crashed so hard after VD. Still I think it is good for at least $30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sal Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Actually I think I'm wrong. BH6 might have some difficulty making much more than $30 million over the weekend. I didn't realize it's weekdays crashed so hard after VD. Still I think it is good for at least $30. Didn't all the animated/family films have similar drops after VD? Most of them took huge boosts but also had huge drops. I really want to know what Thursday numbers are. It'd be a great help in predictions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyGossamer Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Eh, I like BH6 to win with just under $35M. That Veteran's Day was sign of the weekend days to come. It'll do well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Is BH6 follows Madagascar 2- Thurs - $1.9 (+1.5%) Fri - $7.98 (+319.8%) Sat - $16.53 (+107.2%) Sun - $9.77 (-40.9%) $34.28 million there for a 39% drop. Seems like it could possibly get higher. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jandrew Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Hoping for $30M OW considering I predicted...$30M 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picores Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Good midnights, weekend looking at 30-35m. Should have a healthy run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 There are really no good comps for Interstellar from 2008 and it was also the day OoS was released so things for its type of movie would probably be skewed anyway but the weekend could go something like this- Thurs - $3.2 (-5%) Fri - $8 (+150%) Sat - $12.2 (+53%) Sun - $7.2 (-41%) That would be -43.8% for a $27.4 million weekend. Not too bad but not that great either. It does have a shot at $30+ though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommycruise Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Thats a good opening but with all the competition going forward i dont see it getting to 100m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmasterclay Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 I predicted I think 32 million and I think that's reasonable. It certainly still has a big fanbase. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahnamahna Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 My guess for the top 3 Dumb and Dumber To: $40.5 million Big Hero 6: $39 million Interstellar: $30.5 million Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
