rockNrollaDIM Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 That's like +52% or so for ITW... increases are definitely a bit muted compared to 2008. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonstersandRoy Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 (edited) Pretty crap increases. When do we get actuals for Hobbit's christmas holiday numbers? BOM says all it's grosses from December 24th are still estimates. Edited January 2, 2015 by MonstersandRoy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But seriously, I think Monday.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frozen Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I'm going to see Into The Woods today. There are only like 5 showings at one I the biggest theatres here. That is crazy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Hard to get a real read on these weekday numbers since the holiday dates shift every year. Not sure how people are coming to a conclusion on them, one way or another 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahnamahna Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I had hoped for over $10m but whether it's good or bad depends on friday's gross. If it drops minimally that's okay, if it drops similarly to ROTK we would have a rather steep weekend drop. Considering Hobbit 3 is overall smaller than ROTK (in total gross and weekend gross)... I'm expecting a 30-35% drop this weekend. I know it's not popular to expect that from a tentpole, but why not? On Jan 2-4, everything dropped less than 40% for the week (at least the major releases) $26 million ($225 million) $16.5 million ($250 million) $10 million/$12.5 million ($268 million) $6 million ($276 million) $3.5 million ($281 million) $2 million ($284 million) $289 million DOM total Of course, $290 million DOM might be a bit too ambitious. I don't know... I just see this holding better than all Middle Earth-related films except FOTR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, it means Friday numbers will show increases. Jan 2, 2009 had everything decrease. But since Jan 1, 2009 had huge increases while Jan 1, 2015 had mediocre increases, it wouldn't be crazy to assume there'll be increases tomorrow. 30-50% ones, but increases nonetheless.

terrestrial Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Hard to get a real read on these weekday numbers since the holiday dates shift every year. Not sure how people are coming to a conclusion on them, one way or another Especially as nearly all numbers are rather... estimated. Wouldn't be the first time those are not 'correct', or? So why bother to do calculations, if the possibility of inaccuracy is existing? I hope for some real numbers at Monday evening (my local time). That includes an update for DVD/Blu-Ray sales details. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TServo2049 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 It's hard to really compare stuff because moviegoing habits shift faster than date/day lineups. A lot can change in 5-6 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elessar Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I'm expecting a 30-35% drop this weekend. Seriously? Not gonna happen, i'm afraid. It's gonna drop over 40%. I see BOFA doing between $21m and $24m this weekend. Most likely $22m - $23m. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing so far in audience reception would indicate better legs than it's Middle-Earth brethren and unlike ROTK and the films from the LOTR trilogy it does not have any awards legs in it's future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing so far in audience reception would indicate better legs than it's Middle-Earth brethren and unlike ROTK and the films from the LOTR trilogy it does not have any awards legs in it's future. It's held up better than Hobbit 1/2 consistently. Its weekends have also been smaller than its counterparts. Therefore, the likelihood of a 40-50% drop decreases. Seriously? Not gonna happen, i'm afraid. It's gonna drop over 40%. I see BOFA doing between $21m and $24m this weekend. Most likely $22m - $23m. How is $26-27 million that outlandish? $24 million isn't that far from $26-27 million. $10.5 million Friday (Possible since increases were muted today) $10 million Saturday $6.5 million Sunday $27 million 3rd weekend Horrible for Unbroken. It'll have a solid increase tomorrow since its increase was muted today. $8.6 million Friday $8.4 million Saturday $6.1 million Sunday $23.1 million 2nd weekend ($92.5 million) Into the Woods is looking good. $9.5 million Friday $9 million Saturday $6 million Sunday $24.5 million 2nd weekend ($96.6 million) Edited January 2, 2015 by mahnamahna 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elessar Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 It's held up better than Hobbit 1/2 consistently. Difficult to compare due to different release date / day. I'd be surprised if it increases on Friday, most likely it will decrease. ROTK dropped 44% on the same weekend, maybe BOFA can drop a little bit better like last weekend but not that much better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
