The marketing did not reveal any of the story and just expect people to go see it because jennifer Lawrence is in it. Obviously that is working because the movie has opened fairly well and will continue to play while over the holidays. It's definitely a movie that you were going to see because of her and maybe because of the director and maybe because it reunites her with two of the cast mates from SLP Yep, I knew little from the marketing campaign as to what it's about. That suits me fine though as i'd rather know nothing. A David O Russell film is an automatic ticket for me. For getting everyone out to see the movie though it did seem like a mediocre campaign. His name and her's does seem to have done the job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With close to 50M OW and another full week of holdays ahead, I think it has a shot at Pitch Perfect 2. 7 minutes ago, department store basement said: People are like "Joy is doing insanely well" but I always expected this number for opening weekend. It's a feel-good true story about a woman who becomes rich. Perfect for the holidays, unlike something depressing like Concussion (which I overpredicted). I thought it was the kind of movie that needed the oscar buzz (free marketing) to open that high, but I guess JLaw was enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By you're reasoning I should assume that Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg are massive box office stars, since their movie was advertised as those two facing off against each other over being a dad.

TWC is probably waiting until after Hateful 8 slows down. They're not really in the best financial shape to promote two movies at the same time.

It seems to be following the expansion of previous Weinstein awards titles. The Artist, for instance, opened on Thanksgiving weekend and was in 167 theaters on Christmas day.

Is it breaking records in various territories because all I've been hearing is this breaking records domestically. Most markets doing great but... SK is really weak compared to avatar. Russia too because it lost 50% to the dollar. They are the worst of the largest markets and will fall short by more than 65%. They both cleared 100m for avatar. Japan is doing well but will likely fall short. China should match. Overall SW7 has a 15% disadvantage in XR. I think it will be close in ticket sales for WW, but short for OS. I'm sure we will have someone here CSI the shit out of the numbers when it's all said and done. Edited December 26, 2015 by No Prisoners 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Joy is J-Law's first true success in being the sole draw for a film. Good for her. Now that discussion is officially closed. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
