Weekend #s | 50SOG 81m, (RTH Sunday puts it at about 84M) Kings 35.6, AS 16m, JA 9.43m (official) | all #s on p1

[CJohn]

81M?

30M

37M

14M?

60% Sunday drop?

Universal knows this is dropping big time. It is not the phenom it is happening in Europe.

 

Shows are sold out yet again all afternoon for the movie over here today. Night looks strong as well.

[kayumanggi]

But it's drop was considerably softened by Presidents Day and it was still 49% so...

 

All I am saying is it could have been worse.

 

And isn't the number 3-day? President's Day is on Monday, right?

Oh, that explains the sudden increase in popularity of the XXX version. It's suddenly popped up in the top downloads on most torrents.

Seems about right.

So it's projected to drop worse than a horror movie on Sunday even with a Monday holiday. That's ridiculous.

Jemaine Clement's comedy, WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS, scored a triumphant $65k in 2 theaters--$32k per.

Just watch it actually happening.

Yes but the Monday holiday softens the Sunday drop.

It's because it was over inflated by Valentine's Day. Saturday went up like 70% from Friday when it might normally have a much smaller boost.

Big SAT jump for #Kingsman leading to $35.6M FRI-SUN opening wknd beating recent PrezDay action pics RoboCop & DieHard5.

50 Shades did as expected. Kingsman is the BO story of the weekend.

Well it's not its fault, is it? lol

Which is just weird considering here Sunday will likely be even bigger than Saturday and Sat already was the biggest day ever for sure for any film.

Better than that one guy who claimed to have been disturbed by someone who kept kicking his seat only to stand up and see a woman masturbating.

 

ewwwwww

Those of you freaking out about the projected Sunday drop for Grey need to look past valentine's history particularly 2004 and 2010 while the 60% is steep it's not totally out of the realm of possibilities. Add to that the factors we already know - front loaded presales and older audience who is less likely to be effected by a holiday on Monday and it makes perfect sense.

I actually think that Sniper and Kingsmen will be overestimated due to some of the same circumstances.
