Weekend Estimates (4-day): TL 41.7 M | PP II 38.5 M | MM: FR 32.1 M | A:AOU 27.8 M | POLTERGEIST 26.5 M

[JohnnyGossamer]

Possible if AOU has another 70%+ Sat jump and Max is around 25-30%.

Ultron had a bigger Saturday than Max last weekend. Thinking it has a bigger Saturday and Sunday this weekend. Max will likely beat it Monday though.

Not looking like a good weekend for my BSG.

Yeah, I think I've screwed up most of the week. I'm still feeling confident for the 25K bonus question though.

Tomorrowland's OD is lower than John Carter's OD. Finding Nemo > Incredibles proven.

Well that is true.

Ultron had a bigger Saturday than Max last weekend. Thinking it has a bigger Saturday and Sunday this weekend. Max will likely beat it Monday though.

 

Yeah the boxoffice.com projection looks a little low on AOU considering last weekends Sat and this Sun will have soft Memorial Day drops.

 

Should be close.

Bug's Life?

[Avatree]

Noooo I wanted this to stay above 7

60% Fri-Fri drop is not a good sign 

It's 48% excluding previews. Not too bad but I really thought this could hold stronger, given the fantastic reception it's received by audiences. I'm regretting that <40% drop in BSG.

Jurrasic World should of open this memorial day.

[kayumanggi]

Even the GA isn't liking it.

Even the GA isn't liking it.

I think it's because GA wants big action spectacles, and that is sort of was Tomorroeland was marketed as, when instead it's a more intelligent movie with a message.

The action itself was one of the weak points IMO.

Edge of tomorrow

Edge of tomorrow

Fair point, but still didn't do under 40%.

[grim22]

Tomorrowland affected AOU's holds as well. Losing IMAX screens has put AOU's Friday almost equal to IM3's Memorial Day weekend Friday. AOU was starting to stabilize over weekdays but losing IMAX will cause a slightly larger drop than expected.

[Krissykins]

Poltergeist should get $25m 4 day with that $9.35m start.

[Jandrew]

Even the GA isn't liking it.

Is it just me, or is it too early for this...for all you know, that could be Lindelof haters driving down the score. How about we wait and look at drops?
