Wednesday Numbers | Official Estimates: Magic Mike XXL - 9.3M; Terminator: Genisys - 8.9M

I believe more people use Fandango now than when the first Ted came out, so the comparison to San Andreas is much more relevant to Terminator since it is a recent film.

 

Which is ultimately sad for Terminator's prospects when you consider San Andreas did more than Terminator in previews, 3.1 to 2.3.

There is no reason for Terminator to not be frontloaded or not have bad legs. Don't know why people are denying this

FWIW, Terminator's preview take was barely more than The Lone Ranger's.

Didn't that still do 50M 5-day?

Lone Ranger did $2.0M (compared to TG's $2.3M) in Tuesday previews on its way to a $48.7M 5-day and a $29.2M 4th of July weekend.

That's why I'm not getting any of these super low numbers people are throwing out. Assuming it falls in that line (and The Lone Ranger was a BOMB with horrible 60% weekend drops), TG should still hit over $100M.

My Terminator club is off to a good start.

Rewatched The Terminator today. "yep, definitely not a concept that lends itself to sequels" was a thought that crossed my head a lot while watching it. took 3 decades to prove that point and here we are.

 

 

It's really not a film that lends itself to sequels.  But, then a lot of films don't lend themselves to sequels and we get them anyway.  Just see Legally Blonde 2, and Ted 2.

Welp, imma lose an ass load of points in the casino.

Thanks, Jai Courtney.

I knew Terminator Penisys was going to flop since it was first announced yet part of me desperately wanted to see a good Terminator movie again.

[Rorschach]

The 2018 summer schedule looks like total shit. A bunch of animated films (three from Fox alone), and sequels to Godzilla and the Terminator reboot.

Of course, it should change a good bit as we get closer to it.

Don't forget Infinity War Part 1.

I still think the 5-day gross of TG will be under the 4-day gross of Salvation. Does anyone else agree?

T2 proves great sequels are possible and a post apocalyptic Terminator movie has plenty of potential but some idiot chose McG to make that movie.

I'm pleading ignorance, but what's a Jai Courtney???  

The charisma vacuum who played John McClane's son in Die Hard 5 and Kyle Reese in Terminator Genesys.

He's box office poison and will probably cause Suicide Squad to flop.

Were not a huge market but keep in mind there were no Canadian previews for MM or TG
