Jurassic World Weekend Thread | Official Est. 204.6M | 208.8M - Actuals

[PDC1987]

JW would have probably done 12-15 if it had a midnight release. So JW will need about 213m to cast away any doubts of whether it would break the record with out the five extra hours. Hopefully the upper end of rth's Sunday estimate is right...

If the TDKR shooting hadn't happened and Midnights were still a thing JW could have made the same amount, they were something special and people made it a point to go, even though it was late. There's really no way to quantify it.

JW's previews simply would have shifted to Midnight lol.

 

Or to Friday.  

 

This argument is as stupid now as it was during AoU's OW.

 

If there are no 7:00 previews those people don't just decide not to see the movie... they go another time during the weekend.

Like I said, FOX News is reporting 205M OW for JW, so it has beaten TA OW just yet..

 

 

don't care about FOX, only RTH!!

No, that's the 60 scenario.

58 = 210.5

59 = 211.5

60 = 212.5

Come on 60. I would just love to see a nice "milestone" number likek that for a Sunday gross.

My bad, thought I was adding up 58+69.7+82.9

Universal delivered a highly entertaining film with dinos and guess what ?

That s what the audiences were looking for in JW.

So I guess the movie will have decent/good legs despite its T Rex OW.

So is there a good chance of legs being as good as The Avengers and beating it domestically ?

FORBES is reporting this number to as though it's the actual number.... Not just FOX..

 

The first stage is denial.

[La Binoche]

JW will have good legs. The fact that it's good but not great will only work to its advantage at the B.O.. Perfect meat and potatoes filmmaking for the masses.

There is a chance. Summer weekdays will help in that regard. Plus the last half hour of this one is just as satisfying as the last half hour of TA1. Send the audience out the door on an incredibly high note and the WOM is gonna be great.

Summer weekdays, and it doesn't face any action movie competition till Terminator and I have my doubts about that movie.

Next question... could this be at $300m in 7 days? Something like:

 

Mon $29.6 (-50%)

Tues $26.6 (-10%)

Weds $19.7 (-26%)

Thurs $18.7 (-5%)

 

7 DAY TOTAL $306.5

[PDC1987]

JW's "lack of merchandise potential"? lol

310 after 7 days and 400+ after 10 days is gonna happen I think.

agree with Truck I must.......... 

 

and who cares, only RTH matters, lol

I gotta say, it's pretty fantastic to see BKB completely lose it twice in one summer.

[#ED]

Anyone else still traumatized after GOT?

I need JW to beat the record for me to feel better.

[Mango]

I want to see a $30 million Monday.

If it's already holding up like this obviously the GA thinks it's great.
