BOM hasn't published the theater counts for this weekend yet. Weird, they normally have estimated counts a week in advance.

[filmlover]

According to Hollywood Reporter, Entourage is doing significantly better in NY and LA than everywhere else. Sex and the City also leaned towards one market more than others when it came out (it was, of course, massive in NY), but the key difference here is that film did $26M in its first day vs. Entourage's $5M opening day so yeah, it's doing terrible.

They usually only have an estimate for the top films opening early and put up theater counts for the rest on Thur afternoon.

look at my name and you'll remember why

Yup, but the placeholder page with the estimates is always there a week in advance. There is no theater count page for this week yet.

Yeah well the front page is back to Monday numbers.

[Plain Old Tele]

Those actuals for MM are actually a bit better than I expected. I was thinking more like a 29% drop, given Rth's early projection. 26.6% drop due to losing 700+ theaters is pretty solid.

With a $3.72m Wed and under $2m Thur is possible and if so I can see around a less than $10m w/e.

ouch why did San Andreas drop so much?

[TalismanRing]

ouch why did San Andreas drop so much?

 

It was sitting on a fault line.

[grim22]

With Game 1 of the NBA finals tonight, I am guessing we will see a lot of movies take a big tumble again. Game 1 gets the most viewers other than a hypothetical Game 7. Around 20-25M people will be tuning in based on historical trends, so I would expect evening shows for all movies to take a hit.

[GiantCALBears]

That's actually more than I was expecting, legs will be awful after the usual two week theater dump.

[Krissykins]

Poltergeist could still pass $50m.

Depends on this weekends drop.

You can't measure Entourage's success or failure by comparing it to sex and the city. The latter was a worldwide phenomenon much bigger than even what it's ratings suggest, entourage even at the peak of it's zeitgeist poqularity with James Cameron as a guest star was just a hit show by cable standards.

20+ mil 5day for an entourage movie in 2015 is surprisingly good, even if it's lower than sex and the city OD

I know that, I was just pointing out that since Entourage is doing significantly better in NY and LA and is in more than 3,000 theaters throughout the country, that means its playing to a lot of empty seats with just a $5M opening day. Assuming the 3-day is less than $15M this weekend (which is looking very likely), the theater drop is gonna be ugly in two weeks.

5:30 pm on Thursday... No Tues or We'd numbers on BOM gg

[The Dark Alfred]

Entourage is a fun show, easy to watch with friends and beer. It has a very thin demo fanbase, but they'll be satisfied with the movie. For what it is this OD is pretty good, will make the budget back within a week.
