CoolioD1 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I think it would be neat to see an r-rated movie win a year, because I think movies are better when they have blood and naughty words, so sure, go for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 107M for AS is such a shocking opening. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> Impressive, although it's probably still gonna lose a bundle for a wide theatrical release that ended up not happening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray G Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Impressive, although it's probably still gonna lose a bundle for a wide theatrical release that ended up not happening. I'm not certain that without the controversy and releasing on schedule, it would have made much more than 46M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TalismanRing Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I'm not certain that without the controversy and releasing on schedule, it would have made much more than 46M. Agreed and they take more of the profits from online. Too bad they wasted $30m on advertising preparing for the theatrical release when the free advertising they got was much bigger and more worthwhile. Nice to see Selma's huge jump on MLK day.

The Panda Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) Even though I wasn't huge on Sniper, I hope it wins the year still. I like Eastwood, I like Cooper, and I want Hollywood to push for more R rated/adult drama tentpoles like American Sniper, Gravity, Wolf of Wall Street, and Gone Girl.

TServo2049 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) I think Panda knew it was PG-13, he said "R rated/adult drama". We are lacking in PG-13 adult drama tentpoles too. Edited January 20, 2015 by TServo2049 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gopher Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) Go Selma! Sniper is already the most impressive box office performer of the decade to me. I don't *love* the film but non-franchise R rated adult movies breaking records doesn't really bother me.

cory Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) Incredible jump for Selma, have we ever seen +20% from the estimates before? Edited January 20, 2015 by cory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalismanRing Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) Incredible jump for Selma, have we ever seen +20% from the estimates before? That's 20% over all four days, but they just grossly underestimated MK Day. They were off $2.3m on Monday ($2.7m vs $5m) about 85%. Correction there off about $500,000 of that for the weekend.

ladyevenstar22 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Take your time AMERICAN SNIPER. lol 1 Guardians of the Galaxy BV $333,145,154 4,088 $94,320,883 4,080 8/1 - 2 The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 LGF $332,944,000 4,151 $121,897,634 4,151 11/21 - i wish i could stilll say i'm a hunger game hater and scorned it to seven hells for even dreaming to pass my beloved guardians but ehh such is not the case anymore ! sometimes you wake up one day not hating or feeling indifferent about something so bravo its a worthy adversary for the title and deserves its spot at the top its rare a movie franchise that can make you change your mind way into the series and give you a new appreciation for the previous films that rubbed you the wrong way or didnt capture your fancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forg Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 So are we counting Sniper as a 2014 movie? That's super bogus, although I would laugh so hard if it won the year Well Titanic and Avatar were December releases that won their release year respectively even if a lot of their box office came from the succeeding year so if AS could do that, well it will have nice company Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
