MrPink Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 BoxOffice @BoxOffice 4m4 minutes ago INTERSTELLAR earned an estimated $3.17M on Wednesday. Domestic total stands at $128.25M. #Interstellar That is a rather fantastic Wednesday. Thinking this is headed for a 13.5 million weekend, an 11% drop or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 That is a rather fantastic Wednesday. Thinking this is headed for a 13.5 million weekend, an 11% drop or so 14+ is in play. Wednesday was 35% ahead of Thor 2. That same percentage over Thor 2's weekend would be $15m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking a harsher drop than Thor 2 might be in order today. 14 million would be really great. That would put it at 145 million by the end of the weekend.

Noctis Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 So...congrats to Interstellar for being able to hit a 3x multiplier by the end of the weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druv10 Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 (edited) Interstellar had a great day IMHO. Yeah, it's a strong number for Interstellar and also BH6. 18M+ weekend for BH6 and 14M+ for Interstellar, sub 10% drops for both.

John Marston Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 That is a rather fantastic Wednesday. Thinking this is headed for a 13.5 million weekend, an 11% drop or so that drop is normal for Thanksgiving weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPink Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 (edited) that drop is normal for Thanksgiving weekend. OK. I said a fantastic Wed. If it has a modest drop today and 14-15 million is in play, that will be a rather good hold. Edited November 27, 2014 by MrPink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 that drop is normal for Thanksgiving weekend. Not really. Thor 2 and Gravity both dropped over 20% last year. But I think Interstellar is going under 10% in any case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Horrible Bosses 2 is an unnecessary sequel so that is why it is not doing that great. Even then, holiday legs should still carry it to a 80-90m total. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on how it does this weekend, I'm not so sure it'll even reach that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatrickvD Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 The Penguins number is shockingly low. Oh how the tables have turned in animation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted November 27, 2014 Author Share Posted November 27, 2014 So...congrats to Interstellar for being able to hit a 3x multiplier by the end of the weekend. I didn't even think it would get that in its entire run. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 So, Wednesday numbers suck all around, this Thanksgiving weekend will almost definitely trail last year by a hell of a lot. Judging by the difference between early numbers and final numbers, looks like late evening business fell off for all movies. Today will be worse. Hopefully business picks up on Friday.

baumer Posted November 27, 2014 Author Share Posted November 27, 2014 What exactly makes something an unnecessary sequel? Is it unnecessary because it came in soft on it's opening day? Is this what you base it on? What sequel is deemed necessary then? I would assume anything that makes good on its opening day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering the number of stores opening today at 5-6PM, I expect Thursday drops to be pretty rough but Friday increases to be bigger than usual Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it would be D&D2, it still could be but maybe that has enough left in the tank to crawl over the threshold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frozen Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Anyone know what HB2's budget was? I can't imagine it's a flop if it brings in $80-90 million. A movie like that shouldn't cost more than $40 million to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second, where were the masses that were begging for a sequel here, relative to other comedies? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
