Wrath Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 On paper this holiday season looked strong, but boy has it been shitty. If it wasnt for the entertaining Sony drama, this place would be full of tumbleweeds. No joke. This is the season of disappointing blockbusters.

filmlover Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I honestly think we should be prepared for a slump that's going to last for a few months. It's gonna be quite a while until people are truly excited about going to the movies again, especially from looking at the early year slate.

Right off the bat for potential hits the early 2015 slate includes Taken 3 and 50 Shades of Gray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forg Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Why didn't The Hobbit 3 release this weekend like in the International markets? Did Exodus got the date first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Futurist Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Any ideas on what Oscar movie of December is gonna break out cuz I don't have a freaking clue ...Selma, American Sniper, Unbroken, Into the Woods ? Big Eyes ? Will Annie suffer from the leak ? Will the Hobbit try to pick a fight with Groot ? So many questions ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Eyes ? Unbroken is likely gonna get lost in the shuffle with mixed reviews and no awards traction. Into the Woods will probably post business almost identical to Enchanted. Selma, American Sniper, and Big Eyes should all do well to varying degrees. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stripe Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I honestly think we should be prepared for a slump that's going to last for a few months. It's gonna be quite a while until people are truly excited about going to the movies again, especially from looking at the early year slate. January 2015 will be really solid. It has Taken3, a solid expansion for Selma and American Sniper, the wedding ringer, and many films that have more potential than the awful 2014 schedule I'll say we can have a two 100m grossers and a huge expansion with sniper. A pretty solid month. February aldo looks great with 50shades, spongebob, jupiter ascending or focus. And March 2015? So many strong films there: heart of the sea, home, insurgent, Cunderella, Chapie... 2015 can't come soon enough!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grim22 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) Update, Saturday, 5:25PM: Exodus is playing well in the South and the West, with decent business coming out of Hispanic theaters according to distribution sources. This comes as no surprise as Noah played strong from Texas, westward in its opening. Fox reported a Friday estimate of $8.63M this morning, and the industry forecast is that Moses could see a Saturday increase of 15% for an estimate of $9.9M bringing its cume over two days to $18.5M. A $25M is still what everyone is seeing for the Ridley Scott film. While Noah posted a higher Friday opening of $15.2M, it saw an uptick of 16% on its Saturday with $17.6M. I think 25M is too high, if it gets a 9.9M Saturday, with a 40% Sunday drop, it will make 5.9M taking it to 24.4M for the weekend.

JJ-8 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 is it just me or is this a perfect situation for something like the hobbit 3 to break out beyond the previous films and get back to LOTR levels ? (one last time ) I could be wrong though and everything is just bad at the moment....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or we could just end up with every single movie in 2014 underperforming to close out a horrible year at the box office. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't mean much coming from you since you were adamant that DoS would hit $300m well after a month of its release lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
