a2k Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 So...MI3 opened to 47.7m and ended at 134.0m. It had good wom, fell only 47% in the 2nd weekend. Had a bigger 3rd weekend drop of 55% but recovered great and had subsequent falls of 38%(22% 4-day), 33%, 35%. In the end got a multiplier of 2.8. (MI3 released when schools were still open, so those weekend drops were helped by that. But even when schools are open it's not easy to have sub 40% drops and a sub 50% 2nd weekend drop) To touch 150m with the same multiplier MI5 would need to open to ~53.6m.

keysersoze123 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I am thinking 43/130 for MI5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatrickvD Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I saw Papertowns last night in a 75% full theater. I don't get it. I didn't know this movie existed until a week ago. And it has no recognizable stars. Its numbers are to be expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrestrial Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Ant-Man 3.25 Minions 3.1 Pixels 2.75 Trainwreck 2.1 Southpaw 1.9 Paper Towns 1.8 (-36%) IO 1.13 JW 890k Thank You. And I also do think those crumbling posts are wayyyyy overdue to stop (aka annoying at first, now boring / stale) So...MI3 opened to 47.7m and ended at 134.0m.

All former releases didn't get artifically inflated OWs with the nowadays way earlier 'midnight's'. Then the average 2nd weekend drops were a lot better than nowadays (I checked only some action-based franchises) I saw Papertowns last night in a 75% full theater. I don't get it. The movie itself or how many visited the cinema/screening, the dom BOs, or...??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would make it tougher for MI5 to have the same multiplier because the ow will be inflated. If it gets 53.5m ow including midnights, 2.8x and 150m might be tough.

a2k Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 56.3% drop for Minions. Down 46.2% from last Monday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatebox Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 M:I5 strikes me as a walk up movie. The marketing has sucked, but I think people will show up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 My point about Paper Towns is that it made a miniscule 12 million dollars this weekend and yet on a Monday night in northern Toronto there was a theater that has 75 percent capacity. Put two and two together they do not add up. For me we can make 12 million dollars in the weekend you think there would be maybe 10 or 15 people on a Monday night to watch it not a 75% full theater. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinaTakla Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 56.3% drop for Minions. Down 46.2% from last Monday. Much better drop than week 2! Hope that's a good sign. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, so it was the admission-BO combination. It does sound a bit strange to me too. I do also not understand something out of the past in entertainment, but it is really OT: I'm reading again that for the moment (old TV-series), the last chapter is here in Germany usually named as the main reason for the cancellation (cultural 'it' ppl called it facsistic beside the lead character / captain rarely following orders...), the other listed reasons more as reasons for not loosing face. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raumpatrouille_%E2%80%93_Die_phantastischen_Abenteuer_des_Raumschiffes_Orion#Production https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raumpatrouille_%E2%80%93_Die_phantastischen_Abenteuer_des_Raumschiffes_Orion trying to imagine the situation in todays world, the series had 39% to 56% of the all of our German housholds as viewers, many ppl without a TV visiting ppl owning a TV for watching it. = trying to imagine today's the media covering in the US, if a series would be that successful and so on Empty streets like (I still remember that detail very good), a TV-caused 'event' here called 'Straßenfeger' ~ street cleaner Got till 1999 20 repeats over the years, still successful IMHO a 2nd series could have been done without real problems = imagine the internet/twitter/... reactions One of the reasons I think sometimes a small percentage of a population really can do a lot of damage, if loud and 'repectful' enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a2k Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Much better drop than week 2! Hope that's a good sign. I will take any drop below 49.5% so it rounds to 49% It's last Mon-to-Mon drop was 55.4% and it's weekend drop was 53.5%. This time the drop is 46.2%. So hoping it has a 46-48% weekend drop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infernus Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Good hold for IO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenedictL11 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 IO is down 28.6% Monday-to-Monday and dropped 50.5% from Sunday if numbers hold. Very fantastic!!! I hope it gets a sub-30% drop this weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infernus Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 (edited) IO may actually maintain 1m+ daily grosses throughout the week. Which would mean it would have its first <1m day next Monday which would in turn mean that this will have the same number of continuous days over 1m as JW even after a OW 14m less than half of JW Edited July 28, 2015 by Infernus 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infernus Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 P.S - PDC, I am perfectly aware of the fact that it will still end up almost 300m behind JW 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
