TA did 37M on that weekend, JW will do 29M this weekend.

TA's weekend was on steroids due to Memorial Day Monday. Pretty much two Saturdays.

I'm about to say something that may be insulting, but I think it needs to be said.

MMXXL is a perfect example of why Hollywood don't make many movies geared toward women. By the way I'm a woman too.

This movie was projected to make $40-$45 million over 5 days, now it will be lucky to make $30 million.

We women are so unpredictable, that Hollywood is afraid of us.

After Pitch Perfect 2, Hollywood was more than happy to make more movies for women, but after a movie like Spy (another movie where the b/o came in below expectation) and now MMXXL, Hollywood may not be so eager now to make women center movies.

On the other hand, men are very predictable, which is why 90% of movies (99% of summer movies) are geared toward them.

[Mitch]

But will JW sink the Titanic?

No, it will finish third sadly

[Mitch]

Jurassic World will pass

  Pinocchio @ #39 on the ALL-TIME list after this weekend

Edited July 4, 2015 by Mitch

[kayumanggi]

CINDERELLA has already passed 200 M btw.

[kayumanggi]

Currently, Universal has 4 movies in the top 10.

[Kvikk Lunsj]

No, it will finish third sadly

Even if did pass it, I have a feeling Cameron would rerelease it.

It will probably end up #23 on that list, which is phenomenal counting 3d or not.

[MrFanaticGuy34]

Even if did pass it, I have a feeling Cameron would rerelease it.

I guess the reason he re-released Titanic 3 years ago, is because he didn't want his movie to be beaten by The Avengers.

Or The Dark Knight rises or Hobbit. There were three big movies that year

[RobinHood26]

Wait wasn't magiv mike 2 cheap? Its still a hit Im sure.

Nobody expected Avengers to cross 600 m.

Many expected an Iron Man 2 type opening. Maybe a little more.

[JennaJ]

So JW is alrady at 539, and should finish the weekend well north of 550m.

 

How long do you think it would take to reach 600m?

I think after Cinderella, Fifty Shades and PP2 movies geared to women are safe.

I heard the first Magic Mike had a serious story that turned off alot of viewers. That may be the the real problem, not an unpredictable female audience.

[Mitch]

Salvation was terrible IMHO

 

and Terminator Genisys is 38.5 percent behind the pace of the franchise's previous installment, 2009's Terminator Salvation. Per our Boxoffice.com

[Maxmoser3]

JW 's target is Titanic. Avengers is a done deal at the moment

I think it can make it past Titanic. Because it has weekdays, and plus this is officially the only big event movie until Ant-Man or if something breaks out big time beforehand.
