XXRDJisDoctorDoom Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 THR has a huge range on their numbers, which to me implies they don't really have a clue. I figured EP7 was a lock for double Christmas Eve's numbers but perhaps demand is catching up and the holds are going to start dropping compared to a movie half it's size who would still have a lot of people who haven't seen it. Fingers crossed for $170 million! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Lol @ THR's range. Clearly they know exactly what's going on. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody stays on top forever. Nor did anyone expect a semi-controversial NFL drama to be a big blockbuster to begin with. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But since a TV channel here decided to pass MI1 yesterday, MI2 today and MI3 tomorrow, I am gonna watch them first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C'mon now Eh, people were saying a variety of different things. Plenty of folks saying they would be impressed if it even hit 50M. I can't speak for anyone but myself; last night I emphasized that it may be the case that the stronger than expected Thursday might mean a "muted" Friday increase (45-50M would be that territory), as opposed to jumping 100%. If that ends up being the range, I'd expect the Saturday jump to compensate by being slightly higher than expectation, maybe 25-30% instead of ~20%. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too late for that though. Edited December 26, 2015 by Daniel Dylan Davis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Panda Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Even with a 47m Christmas Day, that'd put it on track for a 145-160m weekend. Which would be solid. Im hoping for more though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmandeep Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 (edited) I think people act simplistic with box office. You see increases and put in a calculator. Oh look 180 190 million 2nd weekend yeah You have x factors like the actual size of the number...meaning if it is possibile. What was the % increase before and what was the story behind the previous days performance. People that don't understand don't understand box office.

VGPOP Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 If this movie has a $100+ million third weekend, in my opinion that has to be to most jaw dropping record ever. Depends obviously on this second weekend numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonwo Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 (edited) Daddy's Home fills the gap for a family oriented comedy in December which have done decently in recent years such as Parental Guidance or Family Stone. With a $50m budget, it's going to be profitable. I'm surprised they got the budget that low considering The Other Guys was $100m but I guess Walhberg and Ferrell must have taken a pay cut in exchange for a bigger back end. Joy opened decently, it was never going to match the success of American Hustle but with an award push will end doing well, Concussion was a hard sell as well even with Will Smith.

Magic Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Christmas is ruined. It's like opening a present, only to find out its just a bucket of warm piss and some poopie. This is the Jar Jar Binks of Friday estimates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
