theendsnotnearitshere Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Worst Christmas gift ever. Might be even worse than that time I got a copy of Home Alone 4 from my uncle because he remembered how much I liked the original as a kid...10 years earlier! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killimano3 Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 That's a confusing number. I mean I can buy it slowing down fast after a huge opening but its had crazy good holds all week, why suddenly slow down so fast and on Christmas of all days??

spizzer Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 1 minute ago, tokila said: Ok just read the article. Its clear it is only based off of morning returns. This is not taking into account afternoons. I have no clue how you can make an estimate off of CMAS morning when people are still opening presents. Most people go out after they have their family CMas dinner. " To boot, overall revenue is also expected to hit a record for Dec. 25, when moviegoing surges in the afternoon. " So ya this was based off of data prior to the afternoon. Well there you go. THR just putting out a headline since no one threw out a Friday number yet.

SoSaysI Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 People should at least wait for more legitimate numbers before starting with the doom and gloom. Do people not remember Saturday when TFA number went up over $10 mil from early estimates? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babz06 Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 18 minutes ago, filmlover said: Lol @ anyone who actually calls this number bad or anything. We're now in the time of year where people can go to the movies anytime they want over a nearly three week stretch, and obviously this isn't a typical movie released in December. The numbers for the openers range from great (Daddy's Home) to decent (Joy) to okay (Concussion) to poor (Point Break). No real surprises other than Daddy's Home, which seemed like it could go either way. I'd say the estimates so far are great for Joy and Daddy's Home, leaning towards the higher end of expectations.
