kitik Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 (edited) Best theater count drops are for Mockingjay and Big Hero 6. Nice little expansion for Top Five. Huge drops for HB2 and DADT, despite the fact that they're now going to face zero adult comedy competition over the holidays.

JennaJ Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 So is MJ likely to take the top spot for 2014 away from GOTG now? Seems like it won't face as much competition as CF did, so better holds are probably in store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GOTG winning the year would be so unexpected 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLK Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 I'm pretty sure now that MJ1 will make around $340 million. It will still be in 2000 theaters on Christmas day and the competition is weak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan9 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 ^ You will give your opinion when I ask for it. Well then. If you want to be precious about it it was clearly just outlining that the 'best in the trilogy' tagline won't get it far when it isn't even the best to quite a lot of people and to most people it isn't much of an improvement even if it is better. Pointless replies breed from pointless original post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dingdong123 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 PoM will get a lashing of its theatre counts too, but not that severe yet. Let's see its drop this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keysersoze123 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Any what are the predicts for H3 thursday. I would say 9.3M ( -30% drop minus previews). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAJK Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Guys what are your predictions for the final DOM gross of BOFA? Well back in October I think I said 297-304; but that may change after this weekend... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olive Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 O/U 12M? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 O/U 12M? Nah. Both TT and ROTK dropped like 36% minus midnights. No way H3 will hold that well minus previews. I would say 9.3M which would be around 30% drop minus previews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Interstellar is gonna take a hit this weekend, I just hope Christmas/New Years will be enough to get it past $180. Big Hero 6 is showing some great resilience recently in the wake of Penguins and Hobbit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
