Disappointed in the Peanuts OW. 

 

But it could hit 175 m DOM.

 

That's not too shabby.

Spectre vs QoS comparison:

 

Friday: 28.0 vs 27.0

Saturday: 27.2 vs 25.8

 

QoS Total:168.4M

 

If the legs are also similar, then Spectre will probably finish with 175-180M. 200M is probably gone.

 

It's funny that Bond, Bourne and Ethan Hunt are all around the 200 m range.

 

The Spy genre is pretty consistent.

 

Skyfall probably reached the ceiling but the safe bet is that they'll make 180-220 m every time.

I think even with GD, Peanuts should a good run, 175-185.

I think people forget Skyfall had a lot going for it.  50th anniversary, the Olympics etc.

If Peanuts Movie keeps up with great legs...it could manage to do over $200M DOM....and who would have thought that?....No one.

 

More than a few including myself predicted a $200M or more gross for Peanuts

 QOS adjusts to $196m so that would supplant QOS as the lowest attended Bond film in the US since LTK (granted that was a fraction of this).

Good hold for Spectre

Great increase for Peanuts

The Martian...... holy shit. This movie continues to defy expectations.

It's injustice that THE MARTIAN's Saturday gross in the title is still wrong. lol

Can't believe there is a chance that Spectre makes less than 200m

[misafeco]

So SPECTRE can drop 35% from Skyfall total? That's a lot, more than any of the recent blockbuster sequels. WWW?

After the OW i was sure that i'll win the Martian under 220M bet. Well, i was wrong.

I must admit I overpredicted SPECTRE after SKYFALL. However, after considering everything, there's nothing really wrong about its performance.

I'm thinking of seeing Bridge of Spies today. Just make it a weekend of spies for me. Thoughts?

 

Do you think there are way too many spy movies this year?

Kingsmen $400M WW

Spy $100M McCarthy movie

Man from UNCLE

MI5 $600M WW

Spectre at least $800M WW

Bridge of Spies

American Ultra

 

Taken 3, Mortdecai & Agent 47, all have spy elements in them

 

Bring back some drama, romance & some mind-f*ck thriller like The Gift

There are many disappointing sequels in the last few years, Age of Ultron (-26.3%), Mockingjay 1 (-20.6%), TDKR (-16.1%), but this can be much worse.
