Elessar Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Much better saturday bumps than expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidBrennan Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 McCarthy has proven to be a WOM machine. All of her lead role films have pulled between 3.9-4.1x multis, and it looks like Spy may be headed for that range as well. I think it's just the demographic's moviegoing schedules: middle-aged women don't rush to Midnights. (Well, maybe this one.) Same with Clint Eastwood and Jack Nicholson movies. They'll get to the movie when they've finished building that birdhouse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennaJ Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 So I wonder if Universal will underestimate JW with its weekend estimates again. They did it over the last two weeks, won't be shocked if they do it again. Also, it's gonna be really interesting to see how next week shapes up. I didn't realize IO and JW could be on top of the new releases again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozymandias Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 (edited) So if JW makes 55m this weekend, it will be at 500m on Sunday(43m ahead of Avengers at the same point). Can it make another 158m from here on out and beat Titanic? Edited June 28, 2015 by Ozymandias Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miketheavenger Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Man, those are some great Saturday bumps. Except for Ted lol. That movie looks more and more like a true bomb, not just a disappointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can it make another 158m from here on out and beat Titanic? It's not guaranteed by any means, but it had two sub-50% drops although coming off two record-breaking Weekends. So I think it's very possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I wonder if Ted 2's budget was small enough that it will still be a hit despite such a massive admissions bleed from the first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picores Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I wonder if Ted 2's budget was small enough that it will still be a hit despite such a massive admissions bleed from the first? 85m budget. It will make 250m+ WW so its gonna be profitable. But there wont be Ted 3 of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanboy Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 JW is definitely going to beat Titanic. TDK made another $140 million coming off $42.6 million in its third weekend. Assuming a 55M weekend for Jurassic World, with the same multiplier, it would do $680 million total. Following The Avengers, it would do roughly $665 million. I'd say it will probably end somewhere in between those totals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatebox Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 680M... Can't believe it'll get within spitting distance of the first's adjusted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennaJ Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 This could come down to actuals again, right? Last two weekends we had to wait for actuals to verify JW broke the records, this week we might have to wait for actuals to see who takes the weekend.

JW wins easy, because actuals of IO will go down (Thank you Disney ) and JW will go up. All heil Universal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krissykins Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Go SPY!! Yes! Sub 30% drop in face of R rated comedy sequel doing $30m? That's the definition of great WOM. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All heil Universal It will be funny if we get headlines about IO taking the weekend only to find JW got it with actuals. Universal needs to stop underestimating this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidBrennan Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 That's gonna be a fun one tho You bet. Where to begin? My main theory - alluded to weeks ago (although I didn't take notice of and join the under 50m OW club) - has already sparked SJW indignation and complaints to mods. I have to find a way to phrase it so the mods aren't bullied by the "Oh no he di'int!" brigades and delete it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
