I believe it. I'm going to see it tonight. And when looking up the theater listings in the area, it was the movie with the most times available (which usually means most screens.

[TalismanRing]

Seriously? It cost that much? Why? It looks like a movie that would cost between 30 and 40m.

 

Damn! Universal must have had too much faith in Hemsworth.

 

The NY Times has the budget at $80m and The Wrap at $70m. Legendary produced it and there was a lot of location filming - and well Mann.

[Chewy]

He meant that, much like in the lego movie, in 50 shades things are gonna be played with in a way that they weren't designed to be played with.

 

And it'll be snubbed at the oscahs

[filmlover]

I'm happy Paddington is doing so well as a sign that a relatively old-fashioned, sweet-looking family film can still make plenty of money.

Mods pliz change the thread title with the new variety &THR info

It will surely have tons of Golden Globes nominations, tho.

[darkelf]

Batman. He'll show Nolan how one does a superhero crime epic instead of an imitation of one.

[Warhorse]

Meanwhile, Blackhat did $179K last night. Bombs away!

Chris Hemsworth just isn't a draw that everyone thinks he is. He's just been lucky to be surrounded by others who are draws. I don't care what People think, they got the wrong Chris as sexiest man alive, it should've been Chris Evans.

[Alpha]

Looks like BLACKHAT is a flop. Should've gone with the Deus Ex adaptation instead.

Just two

Rth wouldn't even pop in if something big wasn't about to go down.

It may well be the case that evening business grows, I am checking theaters near me and they are adding showtimes for AS even now. Hobbit, BH6 and Unbroken seem to be the ones losing the showtimes to accommodate Sniper (BH6 for Paddington probably).

Where does the $60 million 4 day come from?

 

$25 million (including previews)

$22 million 

$17.5 million ($64.5 million 3 day) 

$14 million ($78.5 million 4 day) 

 

I don't see where they get $60 million 4 day from a $20 million+ OD. It's not a franchise film, so it should hold up rather nicely. $75-85 million 4 day seems more likely at this point 

 

That would be fucking amazeballs... January OW record utterly crushed.

Yeah, I can see why Mann doesn't make movies regularly. He really over spends. I still can't believe Miami Vice cost 135m. What a waste of money.

He is the #3 Chris on Marvel's roster. Evans and Pratt are bigger draws in my opinion.

If it stays above $30 million then even $100 million 4-day becomes a tiny possibility.

[Donald]

Fuck!!!

30mill opening day!!!! ?
