So whats sillier? Pratt taming raptors, or this raptor wearing a jersey and dribbling a basketball? lol

JP5 should just be Pratt taming velociraptors into playing basketball. While you're at it, make it a Space Jam crossover. Boom. U$2B worldwide.

If MoS and WWZ combined didn't steal Monsters U or DM2's thunder, I don't think this will steal IO's thunder.

 

Something everyone has to consider is that other than JW, the box office is going to be relatively dead next weekend. JW will only do $90-105 million for its 2nd weekend. Being Father's Day, something else has to make up the other $90-105 million. Most of that will be IO, with a little help from Spy and SA. 

Lol I'm sure WWZ ate away soooo much of MU and DM2's kid audience.

[JohnnyGossamer]

Two $90M+ weekends in the same weekend with a strong JW hold and a IO breakout. It's happening.

lol let's not get too crazy...I'd sign for $70m right now for IO for first ever two $70m in same weekend.

[Noctis]

For what it s worth, every Hunger Games movie was badly predicted under wrong assumptions.

The 3 movies, each time, for different reasons.

 

Not CF. 

 

Many people predicted over $400m for CF.

Exactly. They didnt exactly share the same audience. But JW is a family movie through and trough.

[JohnnyGossamer]

I'm still tossed up at how big IO is really going to be.

Really big. At least... $75M+ OW. $275M+ DOM.

I hope it hits 70m today but I would be surprised if it increased that much. Most probably I see around 67-68m saturday and despite NBA(its nowhere close to MayPac level of impact) i dont see more than 15% drop. So something like 57-58m sunday.

 

It isn't just NBA. Game of Thrones season finale is Sunday night too. Goes after a lot of the same audience Jurassic Park feeds on (guys in their 20's to 30's). I think if it can match TA1's 18% Sunday hold that would be great considering the two events on Sunday night. That said, the spillover into Monday could lead to something insane like $25m or higher (a new non-holiday record).

I thought the consensus was that it was to go down because the first one over performed and was zeitgesty.

OFF TOPIC: Harry Potter 3 is on and I forgot how well made it is. Truly a beautiful film.

 

Say it again.

Meh. NBA and NHL both in non decisive Game 5s. If it was a game with clinching potential, I'd think otherwise.

[Dementeleus]

Fuck it, I think it breaks the OW comfortably.

[spizzer]

Why not? If theaters are all selling out, it pushes business from one day to the next. Sunday could have a fantastic hold just because there are still people who havent seen it due to sell outs. I think a really good sunday drop wouldnt be surprising given how massive this thing has become.

Because the same can be said for TA, except that it didn't have the same Sunday evening competition.  If the volume is high enough, it might match TA Sunday's volume but I doubt it matches the hold.

[K1stpierre]

Holy shit!!! box Offce says JW is on pace for a 210M OW!!!!

It'll do $24-27 million Mon so long as Sun is over $54-55 million. 

 

Really big. At least... $75M+ OW. $275M+ DOM.

I'm thinking $75 million OW, $350 million DOM. I think it'll be a solid opener with huge legs over the first three weeks. Minions will unfortunately nuke its late legs slightly, but the rest of July/August should be solid for it.

Guys in their 20s-30s were not even born or young kids when the original opened though...

3 was a bad movie, was been there done that and coming off meh second film. This had perfect timing and 10+ years to forget about the last 2 films.

 

How can you forget: "Where is COOOOPERR?!!" "Cooooooper!!!!"

[FTF]

Comfortably you say? So $70m Sat?
