Weekend Official Estimates: SA 53.2m, PP 14.4m, TL 13.8m, MMFR 13.6m, AOU 10.9m, Aloha 10m

[Mattrek]

But does your BSG preseason total reflect that?

Yup. Predicted 125m for it, I'll be within 40m.

[Mattrek]

I smell a big breakout with that one. Schumer's really funny + I think actor LeBron will have people curious

I'm in the same boat, here's my top 15:

1) Avengers 520m

2) Jurassic World 300m

3) Inside Out 290m

4) Ted 2 245m

5) Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation 235m

6) Minions 215m

7) Pitch Perfect 2 170m

8) Terminator Genesis 160m

9) Fantastic Four 150m

10) Antman 145m

11) Magic Mike 140m

12) San Andreas 125m

13) Trainwreck 120m

14) Paper Towns 110m

15) Straight Outta Compton 105m

I originally had 480m for Avengers before Tele and his sellout hype

I think we just have to accept that IMDB's focus isn't box office. Hasn't been for some time. And they have a writer whose focus wasn't box office

Looks like they may be hiring to try and at least partially fill the BOM hole: http://www.amazon.jobs/jobs/327921/social-media-editor

 

I wonder if Simanton is a stopgap writer until they get someone else.

44% of SA opening was in 3D, 51% were females.

That is an insanely high 3D share.

I'm pleased I brought so many people down with me.

i knew this movie would have a high female share. i don't think it will have very good legs though

Why

[grim22]

Watching a Pixar director's big live action bomb "John Carter" on TBS. The movie so far is boring as hell. If this initial hour and half is anything to go on, I'm shocked it didn't bomb harder.

ikr

[firenskill2000]

Not even  close.

I think people are interpreting this wrong. He said THIS GENERATIONS Arnold. He's not saying he is on the same level as Arnold in terms of B.O. draw. Who in this generation would you compare to Arnold? He's as close as you're going to get IMO.

[Krissykins]

Well done San Andreas.

Aloha looks crap. That director is shocking.

What the hell did you think Mad Max and Spy were going to gross??

[Mattrek]

What the hell did you think Mad Max and Spy were going to gross??

Mad Max I thought would be an Internet only phenomenon (Pacific Rim like) where the GA doesn't care, but the reviews sold it to many and Spy looked like another Tammy rather then Identity Thief. Both were valid assumptions back in late April. Now I know I'm screwed for both

Ted 2 at 245m? Lol, pass the blunt.

[Maxmoser3]

San Andreas should get close to 150 million domestic if it's holds up well if it drops quickly then a gross around 126 million million but really the only big event movie next is Jurassic World which will take most of it's audiences on opening weekend but after that weekend San Andreas should hold up until July.

[Mattrek]

Ted 2 at 245m? Lol, pass the blunt.

Ted Trailer 2 years old: 20.9m views

Ted 2 Trailer 4 months old: 20.9m views

This is also before the ad campaign even begins a full month out. Awareness is high and will only get higher. People are way underestimating how well this movie has played outside of theaters.

I'm think bigger opening than the first, worse legs, ends ups round the same total

That's what it appears to be.

[Maxmoser3]

I'm think bigger opening than the first, worse legs, ends ups round the same total

it goes either way the lowest would be 165 million if it's bashed but if it's mixed 180 million if people like it more than first(22 Jump Street, Austin Powers:The Spy Who Shagged me just to name a few) then north of 220 million domestic
