Plus it sounds like kids in the US go to R rated movies regardless. Never really understood why studios were so terrified of that rating.

Kids always find ways to get in.

What if DP was in 3D and was PG-13?

 

150M+ OW???

Nope. The hard R is the reason it's doing so well in the 1st place.

[baumer]

Guys this is nuts. Deadpool is sold out already from 530pm on in AVX at my theater.

That seems fine. It's more of a weekend/Valentine's Day movie anyway.

Biggest February Openings

 

 

Biggest Winter Openings

Anyone know the full story?

 

What changed Fox's mind? Was the rampant fan mail after the leaked footage?

 

 

 

It was the positive reaction from fans that prompted them to give it a go, I believe.

It has a good chance at outgrossing all of them (unadjusted, domestic).

The reason cesspool is doing well is because of the HUGE marketingcampaign that made the movie look different and appealing. I know people who have never heard of a cesspool movie in the r life who were excited to see it. Also it definitely would have done better if it was pg13.  My brother is 13 and he and all his friends wanted to see the movie but can't. The illegal ddownloads for this will be HUGE.

HOLY SHIIT!!! Ryan Fucking reynolds you did with this fucking DEADPOOL. Fucking Congrats man. Although the marketing was fucking good that lead to this massive fucking numbers.

Holy shit.

 

This is a big win for R-rated movies. 

[eXtacy]

Hahahaha looks like BvS will not be the first event film of the year

[kayumanggi]

Comparing THU night 7pm pre-show debuts, #Deadpool was only 20% below #Furious7 from last APR which had $147M opening wknd.
