Weekend Estimates: JW: 102 IO 91...RTH: Sun JW 38.3 | IO 25.3 with possible upsides PG 287, possible 107M for JW weekend

Lol guess that answered my own question.

[baumer]

I don't know which side of baumer annoys more people on this site: his hatred on Pixar, or his hard-on on Michael Bay (particularly films like TF2).

Bay is brilliant

Transformers is fun

Pixar is part of the MK ULTRA program

[kayumanggi]

I'm thinking of 105 M - 107 M for JW. Is it high?

[baumer]

I don't understand how somebody could hate Pixar but like the SW prequels. That line of thinking just doesn't compute.

Unless baumer dislikes the prequels of course, I dunno.

I love the prequels and despise Pixar. Ill see IO just for Gopher though. He cried during it so maybe its worth seeing.

[kayumanggi]

For JW to break the biggest second weekend on record with IO opening to 90 M is just unbelievable. Even if the record gets broken in the future there will always be that asterisk.

[baumer]

What was TA's second Friday?

29.2

[baumer]

This might be the most insane weekend in box office history. Two films legitimately have an opportunity to gross close to 200 million dollars. That is incredible.

[Krissykins]

I have no interest in Star Wars or cartoons.

So I'd rather stick a knife down my throat than watch either.

Hopefully Jurassic World wins the year.

[Ethan Hunt]

Yes but my hate towards Pixar is justified. They make horrible movies. your hate towards Star Wars is ridiculous as they are fantastic movies.

You reversed the two baumer

Well, we've talked too much about Avatar in this thread, so I'm ok with a new subject of whether Pixar sucks.

I really hope he underestimated JW.

I hope he underestimated both of them.

Im not overly fond of Pixar, I hate the OT and I like the prequels (well, Ep 2 and 3 that is). So not so weird.

Incredible numbers for JW. So happy for it, it really is the definition of a crowd pleaser. Great film.

Amazing for Inside out too. The box office is on FIRE.

They don't.

Except Cars. And Brave.

Ok they can sometimes suck but most of the time they rock!

[baumer]

A moment of reflection please.

40 years ago today, my brother was 4 months old and JAWS, THE ORIGINAL SUMMER BLOCKBUSTER, was unleashed in theaters. A truly historic film.

James you define weird

(I know I'm one to talk, yadayadayada)

...wow the Star Wars threads must be intense.

[DeeCee]

There's a storm coming.

Fuck Harlan Ellison.

On to T2.

[miketheavenger]

They don't.

Except Cars. And Brave.

Nobody can have a perfect track record, not even Pixar.

[Ethan Hunt]

Star Wars is crap. OT is boring and PT is just fucking awful
