This release date isn't really a "dumped" kind of date.

Yeah, whenever Disney plants a movie on this date it's never a dump (unless you're Old Dogs, but the Mouse House knew they had a gigantic turd on their hands with that one and decided to dump it in between their two big, animated bets that holiday season without worrying about anyone caring). It's...everything else...that's inconsistent when it comes to this date, all you have to do is look at all the rotting corpses of forgotten, unloved movies that bombed over this frame over the past 15 years to see that this date isn't quite what it used to be.

That guesstimate for Mockingjay would be about on par with Part 1's Wednesday gross last year, which would be great given the discrepancy between their openings.

 

The Good Dinosaur appears to be in for a holiday weekend about on par with that of Tangled. That's certainly not bad by any stretch of the imagination, but it would result in Pixar's lowest opening since Ratatouille.

 

Keeping proper perspective, $6.4 million is a great start for Creed. The more bullish projection from yesterday had me hoping for a Blind Side-esque weekend performance, but it's still in good shape to put up strong weekend numbers and display significant staying power. The crowd that I saw it with last night wasn't very big (45 people or thereabouts in a 300-ish-seater), but the chatter on the way out was unanimously glowing.

If Creed does "only" 6.4M that would be on par with Rocky Balboa. Are we looking at 21M 5-day?

No.

 

1.4

5

5 

11.5

10.5

7

40.4 for the 5 day

 

Should hold better today and Sunday than Good Dinosaur or MJ2 since it's not targeting teens/kids 

 

Great for all 3

6.4m for Creed? Disappointing 

 

How is it disappointing? It's looking at 35-40M 5-day and with strong WOM 125-150M total. I'm sorry but you're the most pessimistic poster on this board. Everything is flop or a disappointment. :rolleyes:

For real. Box office numbers aren't black and white, people.

 

Also, Victor Frankenstein apparently took in around $600K yesterday. Maybe this will finally tell them to stop with these wannabe-blockbuster revisionist takes on the legendary horror stories.

Not a Brontosaurus or boxer Adonis

 Creed 

could push Katniss from her No. 1 perch at the box office, as Liongate’s 

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay-Part 2 

owned the Wednesday before Thanksgiving with $13.8M at 4,175 theaters, +21% over Tuesday for a running cume of $136.3M.  

MJ1 

made $14.6M on Thanksgiving eve a year ago. This is according to industry estimates this morning; many studios have yet to report. 

MJ2

paces behind

 MJ1 

by 16% or $21..3M. At this point in time, some are predicting that over the five-day holiday, 

MJ2 

could do $78M-$80M, which would put it below 

Catching Fire

‘s $109.9M (which holds the Thanksgiving spread record) and 

MJ1

‘s $82.7M. Overseas 

MJ2 

is at $183M with a huge global take of $320M.

 

Walt Disney/Pixar’s The Good Dinosaur is off to a decent start with an A CinemaScore and a No. 2 Wednesday gross of $9.8M at 3,749 venues. That’s not as high as their animated princess pics, read Frozen‘s Thanksgiving eve wide opening of $15.2M and Tangled‘s $11.9M, but then again this film skews more boy and this dinosaur isn’t wearing a tiara and a gown. A great start nonetheless which will take Good Dinosaur to a $58M-62M five-day. While Good Dinosaur‘s budget is at an estimated $200M, these animated films play and play during the holiday season, so a 4x multiple is conceivable. Good Dinosaur has an 81% Rotten Tomatoes score which is more than good.

MGM/New Line in association with Warner Bros’s Creed earned an A CinemaScore title belt from audiences last night and $6M at 3,284 playdates in third place. Current industry projection over five-days are at $39M-$42M which will be higher than where Warner Bros. was expecting the film. Creed also has extra muscle with a 92% fresh Rotten Tomatoes score, which will definitely get the adults out there. The Ryan Coogler-directed film carries a $37M-$38M production cost.

 

20th Century Fox’s Victor Frankenstein is not off to a good start per industry estimates with $620K at 2,737 in 9th yesterday; that’s a per theater of $227. The Daniel Radcliffe and James McAvoy film earned a bloody C CinemaScore, and is currently estimated to take in $3M-$3.7M over the five-day frame. Production cost before P&A is at an estimated $40M. Fox had better luck with The Peanuts Movie which slotted fifth with an estimated $2.5M, +12% from yesterday with a cume of $105.6M. The Blue Sky Animation title should rake in $16M-$17M over five days, bringing its total through four weekends to $120M. Fox is reporting The Martian in 10th place with $5K less than Victor Frankenstein —$615K at 1,407 theaters — with a total to date of $214.7M.

MGM/Ion/Sony’s Spectre targeted an estimated $2.66M yesterday in No. 4, +22% at 2,940 runs.  Heading into the holiday, 007 shedded 719 screens as the competition heats up. Cume for Spectre is at $160.7M, which is trailing Skyfall at the same point in time by 29%. By Thanksgiving eve that film had bagged $227.16M. By Sunday, Spectre is projected to be at $176M. Sony also owned 6th with the Seth Rogen-Anthony Mackie-Joseph Gordon-Levitt R-rated comedy The Night Before which made $1.7M, +9% on its way to a five-day holiday run of $11.5M-$12.5M. Cume by Sunday should stand at $24.5M.
