Thinking $15-16m for TGD and $13-14m for Creed today.

 

If Creed makes 13 million today, I'll do cartwheels and fly to Philly and run the Rocky steps.  That would really make  my day.

My personal favorite empty theater tale is back in '95 when my grandfather took me to see Judge Dredd. The projectionist came up to us and asked if we weren't actually there to see Power Rangers. NOPE, I was there for Sly.

Creed is now Certified Fresh and has a 95% audience score; TGD has only 79%. Statistics vs. word of mouth should be interesting.

I saw Spirit of Vengeance in an empty theatre. Thank God, I would totally be embarrassed if anyone knew I paid to watch that.

Also getting an early start was 20th Century Fox’s Victor Frankenstein which grossed $175M from 2,100 locations.

 

[DAR]

With that start, the time is ripe for a Creed reunion tour.  They could play all the hits.

$16 million

$11.5 million

$26 million

$24.5 million

$91.5 million 5 day for Good Dinosaur

 

$14 million

$10.5 million

$21 million

$11 million

$75.5 million 5 day for Creed (not even that outlandish considering past Thanksgiving frames )

$10.5 million

$21 million

$75 million 5 day for MJ2

 

Would be a well-rounded top 3 plus Peanuts/Spectre holding well. Although my Creed prediction may be far too ambitious lol

I saw Congo back whenever it was released in a mid-90s in a completely empty (and seemingly massive) theater. I think my friend and I are still the only people in the world who saw that movie.

I just can't wrap my head around a Stallone movie doing 20 million in one day.  It's like it's 1985 all over again (adjusted for inflation of course).

[DAJK]

I saw Pixels, Transendence, and Insidious 3 in an empty theatre (there was 1 other dude for the latter but he left half way in).

[baumer]

I saw Bats with Lou Diamond Phillips in an empty theater.

Hahahaha didn't think a human would ever mention that movie again.

[WrathOfHan]

I was able to see Ant-Man on OW with very few people in the theater, it was awesome. Also saw Gravity with only about 4 other people in the theater.

[AniNate]

Wow, over Frozen? That's an excellent start for TGD. Hope the GA loves it as much as I did.

Still not quite as bad as the last Hunger Games movie.

Glad to hear you loved it.  I know you had some trepidation

I think Stallone's best day ever gross is the 13 mill OD that Expendables made.

 

Friday might bury that number.
