Trainwreck isn't gonna reach 100M, is it? Goddammit I am gonna go on a True Detective gifs rampage that only Tele and WB can stop if TW doesn't reach 100M.

I think that FF will have a $24.4 million OW, based on antman's midnight multiplier with a truncate at the end.

So... Finally catching Paper Towns this weekend instead of Fantastic Four? Sounds damn good to me.

Yikes. Whatever happened to that?

Even you waited this long? No wonder it crashed and burned

[Jack Nevada]

Holy shit, what if this opens under Chronicle

I mean, this is the same Ethan who doesn't go to the cinema to see the latest movie from the director he worships.

He didn't even saw in theaters his most waited movie of the year: Paul Blart 2.

And this as well. 

[Jack Nevada]

Wait which director does Ethan worship

[Chewy]

I don't exactly blame him for skipping Tomorrowland. I saw people saying Fant4stic has like an hour of first act. Tomorrowland has like an hour and 45 minutes of it

[Ethan Hunt]

Brad Bird

What are the odds that Rigue Nation repeats?

What are the odds that Rigue Nation repeats?

very likely, Rogue Nation could have a second weekend at about 25-30 million. Although I hope it does 35-40 million it's second weekend to bring up some momentum for how shitty this August has been so far.

[Ethan Hunt]

I promise I will do a Paul Blart/Tomorrowland double feature before the end of the year... I would've had seen them in theaters if I had my license and my own money.

Going up by the minute with the toxic WOM that F4 is getting.

[a2k]

If a few months back someone told you that 'F4's dom total will be under Furious 7's od' or that 'JW's 3rd weekend could be over F4's dom total'...

edit: or 'F4 dom under IO ow'...or 'F4 dom under half of Minions ow'. one can go and on. Very baffling.

<10m OD coming up. Seeing theaters where matinees are even with/behind MI5.

 

EDIT: Remember this is super duper early and things could change every hour, but I'm reeeeaaalllyyy not optimistic.

 

That I really also try to get into the heads of a few posters here, I think at least some of them never did early calculations out of only (small) parts of the final numbers.

 

My fully respect for your energy... to do so

[Maxmoser3]

F4 is death to comic book movies. Not really but F4 will end up at pawn shops for really cheap by 2019.

Shit, I used to walk and steal money to see movies. GROW UP.

That would be amazing. I will be very happy if this hits $30m regardless of the rank.
