Weekend Estimates (pg8): Mockingjay 18.6M | Krampus 16M | Creed 15.54M | TGD 15.51M

[MrFanaticGuy34]

There could be way for Spectre to hit $200M DOM if "Sony" tries to do the same thing that WB did to have "Godzilla" reach that mark.

 

Either they try to fudge it there or expand the theaters for Spectre, or re-release it.

 

I don't think Sony would not let that happen if they get really, really close.

You shouldn't, it's a good movie. See it before you write it off completely and pray for it's failure.

Oh I certainly haven't written it off. It's my most anticipated movie for the next few months Star Wars aside.

Truly terrible for TGD.  Still can't call it a bomb but this is the first sure fire miss from the Pixar cannon, box office wise.  Hoping it will at least break even with the international market.

 

Fantastic for Krampus.  Very hard to get that kind of movie to a 10+ OW in this time frame.  

Why can't call it a bomb? Why would it break even due to OS, when it opened in basically every market, to a measly 29M? It's a 200M+ budget film that will maybe gross 250M worldwide if it's lucky. It's a John Carter/Lone Ranger sized flop. The only thing it has going for it is that at least a majority of its money was made domestic, so the 250M gross will be more lucrative than some other 250M grosses.

Happy for Krampus. I thought Creed would hold better

[Jayhawk the Hutt]

Everything should hold well next weekend. Any movie that drops under 50% this weekend is holding well. Creed is fine, I doubt it falls off a cliff.

I also overpredicted TGD's worldwide number. But after seeing the movie, I knew right away it's not the kind that would attract 'kids.'.

 

Attracted kids? Didn't it lack adult appeal unlike IO, hence why it didn't do as well.

Nice hold for Creed, nice opening for Krampus, horrid drop for Dino, so-so drop for Mockingjay

If it follows QOS' pattern of drops from here it makes 200m. 

It'll all depend on just how hideous the theater drops will be on the 18th and the 25th. Everything is about to get a massive screen reduction.

It wasn't adults who gave ICE AGE and MINIONS big overseas numbers.

It did not open in every market. Was just 39 or 52%. Still, the opening wasn't good.

Yeah the big draw for those was kids begging their parent to go watch them.

 

Maybe TGD didn't appeal to kids or adults.

Overseas maybe, but I was taking about the opening weekend domestically. I'm sure there mostly kids in the theaters everywhere, just not too many went, and now TGD is a humongous bomb, even by Pixar standards, and well, that's just sad.

Its global gross still has not surpassed Ashton Kutcher's Jobs despite the former being released in more territories.

Yeah, but I have no doubt it lacked adult appeal there too.
