TERMINATOR GENISYS took in $0.648M on Monday. Domestic total stands at $81.29M. #TerminatorGenisys

Looks like another week of harsh Monday drops. Expecting $6.3-6.7m for Ant-Man.

I'm sorry, but the general audience isn't considering Minions as a (spin-off). Heck, kids even call the first movies (Minions Movies). This movie has poor word of mouth and that WILL have an effect on the franchise going forward, no matter how much this profits. Don't forget to add to that 75million budget what could be the one of the most expensive marketing campaigns ever, aside from consumer product tie-ins.

Why the harsh Monday drops? I thought most would be in the 50 range, but glad Minions dropped in the 60 range.

I want minions to drop under inside out.

[Planodisney]

It's pacing the same for 2nd Monday, but if it paced the same throughout its run, it would finish 15 million below DM2. DM2 had strong holds from here on out and I don't see Minions matching.

DM2 had more competition. Minions have virtually zero competition going forward. It will have decent hold even though WOM is not that great.

Terminated.

Titanic in sight for JW?

$660m looks right so yes but unadjusted is the real story between those 2 obv.

[Planodisney]

FloptronBuff, Minions has dropped well below Inside Out daily tracking for days now. At this point, it will finish below to considerably below Inside Out final gross.

[Jessie]

Minions may have had a low budget but add in the marketing campaign and it probably cost just as much as inside out to produce and distribute. Still, it will be a bigger success due to its worldwide tally but it is a brand so it's entirely expected.

I'm expecting around $645-650m.

I love it how numbers get released in instantly all the haters come out and just talked about how poorly a movie is doing and how much it's going to affect the next movie in the series. So typical so ridiculous and so wrong.

INSIDE OUT took in $1.58M on Monday. Domestic total stands at $307.83M. #InsideOut

[baumer]

So Antmans first monday is on par with its previews.

I'm in line to see it right now.

[Planodisney]

I saw JW last night. Fun flick!! Glad it's doing so well. We need more 80's style family adventure movies.

Give me more Indiana Jones, E.T., Goonies and Jurassic Park(1993), and I would be a happy camper.

Minions looking at >1b ww. What a looser. Should be called flopions.

57.5% drop, higher than Captain America (but that was 4 years ago on the same weekend roughly).
