Based on your math ASM2 should've had a sequel.

 

But Sony wasn't satisfied with the BO. I doubt Fox would be satisfied with < 250 m WW for FF.

I never said they would be satisfied. 

[grey ghost]

I said it had more than Ant-Man... Not necessarily a lot

 

What happened to your Ant-Man vs FF DOM club?

 

I told you Ant-Man vs MI5 DOM was a better match up.

That wasn't my club

Then why won't you use the F word???

 

C'mon CJohn, call FF a FLOP!

[MovieMan89]

Holy fucking shit! I mean, we all knew disaster but this is on another level for a modern big budget CBM. It won't hit 25m OW with a 10m OD. And if WOM sucks like it's going to, 50m total may be out.

[grey ghost]

That wasn't my club

 

It sure seemed like it.

[RyneOh1040]

Yeah there is absolutely no saving grace here.  I would see a sequel if they did one but I have a feeling they will cut all ties with this project for the next 4-6 years.

WTF, of course it is a flop. I just said it should make a small profit in the end, like After Earth, Pacific Rim, TASM2 or Edge of Tomorrow, and a few other WW bombs.

[Moviedweeb]

Hey Gopher, can Rogue Natiom hit $30m?

Ha! FF wishes it would have the OS gross of a PR or TASM2.

And to think TG's ow of 28m was disappointing after it had burnt of demand on wed and thu. TG + F4 could be less < 150m dom

It should do better than After Earth numbers WW and After Earth had a bigger budget.

Maybe someday that one will get an update, one way or another...

[John Marston]

FF is not in 3D, doesn't have a big star and apparently has little action. It will bomb overseas

[Jim Shorts]

The Jessica Alba Effect.

[cookie]

Sub-60m total incoming? What a disaster.

[CoolioD1]

The Jessica Alba Effect.

I didn't see it because I missed ioaeun gruffffed..

[moviesRus]

So F4 total < Ant-Man OW? lol

Even $30m is somewhat optimistic (but still realistic) based on a $12m Friday. Could see FF and MI5 both finish around $27-28m each. {nm} http://www.hsx.com/forum/forum.php?id=3&pid=343131

 

Although $12m itself seems optimistic... as always, let's see how today actually plays out. Things will be a lot more clear by tomorrow. {nm} http://www.hsx.com/forum/forum.php?id=3&pid=343133
