CJohn Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I was hyped for Wonder Woman, until I seen the actress they chose. She's horrible and ugly. She might be a terrible actress, but UGLY?! BWAHAHAHAHHAHAA 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhorse Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 2 old boxers, an old Spurs team, an injured Clippers team, and a bunch of horses took down the mighty Avengers! I wonder if one of those horses was Loki's son? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecstasy Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Oh no. It's well past Saturday already. It will pass Friday's total in the next 30 minutes. We should first hope for a sub 20% drop before we go crazy with increasing. I'm not helping with that though am I? Yep sub 20% is the goal. And no you are not helping. But its good to know aou made a comeback. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your theater is an interesting one this weekend, that's for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhorse Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I completely buy the Spurs being a major cause for a drop in that area, and I buy the boxing match hitting WC shows. But does the Kentucky derby register as a must watch event for people? Just curious. People like to bet on horse racing. I know for a fact they clog up the near dog track and betting bars to place wages on the longshot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinHood26 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 It won't be long until movies just open on Thursday. I don't see it happening... Thursday bussniess just isn't strong enough. If you look at Thursday preview sales you'll aee 10pm showings out sale there 7 and 8pm counter parts. 7 and 8pm shows are difficult if your getting off work at 6 or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avatree Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 There are sporting events on all the time yet they are seldom mentioned in box office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmscholar Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 There are sporting events on all the time yet they are seldom mentioned in box office. It's very rare to have what happen this weekend with sports. The NFL DRAFT where the NFL picks all it's new players only happens once a year. The Manny and Floyd boxing match is a once in a generation fight. The NBA Playoffs are also once a year as well as The Kentucky Derby. I'm honestly not even mad at Ultron number. The fact it only dropped 20 Million from Part 1 with this Supernova Atomic Bomb Sports programming is good. But even Mojo is admitting the Sports probably effected the number by 5-10 million but I don't know if you can really pull a number but I cool with that figure.

Warhorse Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Disney is having a good spell, just not as good as other studios, haven't finished on top for a decade, simple as. But bigger question is, how much are they raking in from their theme parks and merchadise that now span not only Disney characters like Mickey Mouse and Frozen, but Marvel and Star Wars too. Anything the BO makes for them is probably pocket change to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 There are sporting events on all the time yet they are seldom mentioned in box office. It's rare one is as big as Money vs. Manny. Also, two(3 if you count the NFL Draft) other big sporting events in the same day is rare. It was a day where a lot of people just had sports on their mind the whole day.

Lordmandeep Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Think AOU should have opened last weekend. It was dead. Carry on for 3 weeks no competition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) So, I want to ask you, and be honest, please. You seemed to hate the AOU, but that hate seems to stem from the fact that it looked like it was going to dethrone Potter's place in the box office. Since that didn't happen, are you feeling more warmed up to AOU and the MCU as movies, or do you still kind of not like them? Let me explain. BOM members will remember me being hugely excited for IM2, and I was crushed when it didn't do nearly as well as it should. I even saw IM2 three times in theaters. I love IM1. IM2 lulls a bit but I think it's pretty underrated. I also think Thor is very charming. But it's when Phase 2 happened that my appreciation for Marvel plummeted. I thought CA1 was eh. Iron Man 3 was decent, but nothing great. The Avengers was completely and utterly mediocre. Guardians of the Galaxy is also wildly overrated. Chris Pine's charisma and dorky charm saves it. But they all feel so fucking similar despite having different characters and worlds. Like a checklist to make sure every character has a funny moment. It all became so superficial. None of them are bad films, but each one is inundated by so much mediocrity. TWS was fantastic, though. BO means shit to me when I judge a film. DH1 is my favorite Potter film ever, but I never complained that Eclipse beat it domestically because it's the only Twilight film I liked. I'll probably see AOU soon. And even if it had dethroned Potter, it wouldn't dampen the film for me. Edited May 3, 2015 by Noctis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superduperm Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Well, my father and I went to a crowded 1 P.M. showing, and now we are unable to find parking in a lot that happens to be near a theater. And now there's all these posts saying business is up from yesterday. I'm not going to jump on the "Sunday increase!" bandwagon though. Doing that this weekend has proven costly. In fact, the projected Sunday hold is extremely generous as it is. Nope. Can't do it. Will wait for results instead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
