DAJK Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 So, how much did Exodus cost? 140M is what's being reported. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAJK Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 I have seen the movie. I doubt that The drop next week against Hobbit 3, Museum 3 and Annie is gonna be brutal. Exodus also isn't a family film. You're not going to have parents taking their kids to this throughout the holidays. Still, December generally has nice legs, so I won't be surprised if this passes 90M. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ando918 Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 I'm kind of disappointed in Exodus' performance. I mean, no one really expected Noah numbers, but with a marketing campaign that relied heavily on CGI, and also Bale who is a huge name, this (coulda shoulda woulda) cracked 30M OW in theory. It would have been nice to see a hit that wasn't Comic Book, or literary adaptation, or Disney fairy tale. I'm not sure that its WOM is killing it; I doubt it would have done much better with stellar reviews on opening weekend. I think Fox should think about what it is with the marketing that didn't connect. I think the Flixster audience score is in the 40s....just terrible....it won't have any legs and will finish under 90 domestic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Yeah, Wild is looking to do very well in expansion. Looks like Reese is still a draw after all which makes happy, always liked her even when her movie choices haven't been the best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really enjoyed her when she doing work in movies like Pleasantville and Election....then of course Hollywood tries to send her to the "romantic comedy" ghetto as they do with all 25 year old actresses....and now she is breaking out of that ghetto again.

She still has that buddy comedy opposite Sofia Vergara coming out next year, so don't hold your breath for her breaking out of that "ghetto" (lol wtf) entirely.

Ando918 Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 That dumb buddy comedy with Reese and Vergara is going to flop with Pitch Perfect 2 being released immediately after it. For female moviegoers looking for an alternative to The Avengers, Pitch Perfect 2 is probably going to be a summer hit. The first one was released in October - which kind of limited its box office potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grey ghost Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Poor Chris Rock. Can't make a dent at the box office unless he's playing a zebra with a rainbow afro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 OMG The sex scene between Katie Holmes and Aaron Eckhart in Thank You for Smoking is probably the most heatless, mechanical, awkward things I've ever seen in my entire life. I'm cringing. Also, the child actor in this movie is god-awful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Poor Chris Rock. Can't make a dent at the box office unless he's playing a zebra with a rainbow afro. For a release in 900 theaters, I think Top Five is doing pretty well. With a 2.5M Friday, it has a shot at 8.5M for the weekend which will almost recover its 10M budget. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAJK Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Wow so does means this is a flop? Not yet I'd say. Wait for the OS numbers. If this doesn't crack 300WW, then it's a flop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Futurist Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Exodus will still have the help of Hollyday s grosses to gain some momentum but it s week ow for sure for'such a big film. Is Christian Bale a draw ?the jury s still out ... American Hustle last year was sold,with tons of Jlaw s clips ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ezen Baklattan Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 For a release in 900 theaters, I think Top Five is doing pretty well. With a 2.5M Friday, it has a shot at 8.5M for the weekend which will almost recover its 10M budget. Plus, it received a fairly subdued marketing campaign and not even a release date until after TIFF. I feel like WOM could really go big for this film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
