An r rating obviously limits your audience.

HOW TO BE SINGLE earned an official estimate of $5.25M on opening day Friday. #HowToBeSingle

Should do a good 25M over the 4-day weekend.

I'm not sure you understand ratings. It is impossible for the film to remain the same and get a lower rating.

Even if it did, I don't see why it would add a huge amount. Teenagers can still see it, they just have to have an 18 year old with them.

 

Yea I know that about the rating if it is PG13 the movie won't have alot of the R rated stuff it has but like I said just pretend that it has a PG13 rating, surely that means it would make alot more because more people have access to see it?

That's slightly incorrect, you actually have to be 21 to accompany a minor (or 25 without an ID).

It was fun while it lasted.

 

 

Na, Deadpool breaking fourth wall or jokes never get lame, it just how he says them that makes them stay funny. Don't worry Deadpool two he have Avenger jokes and civil jokes and tons other things. 

 

I just hope Deadpool two has some cable/deadpool friendship in it.

$48m OD?

 

Deadpool is going to destroy Matrix Reloaded's 13 year old R-Rated opening weekend record.

He means hypothetically.

Oh no, I get it. It's just a bizarre hypothetical to ask.

That would mean we would live in an entirely different world where it would be common to see movies like Deadpool because most stuff would get a PG-13 rating.

48M OD lmao. There is a real chance it ends as the biggest comic-book movie of the year.

 

No. Just no. Its numbers are amazing but no.

The more I think sbout it, the more I think this did well cause of Ryan Reynolds and female appeal, plus, it's MARVEL and a Holiday weekend.. Now, like I said, the real test for this will be it's 2nd weekend and how well this will hold or if it's frontloaded to the Max???

 

It was less Reynolds, and more of the case of the right project and the right actor mainly.

Just being hypothetical for this given movie. If DP makes 140M OW with an R rating which means it limits the audience who sees the movie, then if it gets a PG13 rating, the movie remains exactly the same it is nothing changes about the movie whatsoever only the PG13 rating then it automatically becomes accessible to a larger audience and that 140M OW can possibly be alot higher.

No because since in that world extreme violence, nudity and language would be a normal thing in PG-13 a movie like Deadpool wouldn't be a novelty in the super-hero world.

Don't know because x men movie to me isn't going be so great with the characters they got.

 

Even timeline is getting messed up.

 

civil  war has a shot being good if do it right but with so many missing characters from comics it just feels strange to me. 

 

batman vs Superman people are saying it even looks bad that from D.C fans.

NO we aren't talking about a world where R rated movies are PG13, just for this given movie alone. In other words this movie was released as PG13 but remaining in tact in this world.

LOL

 

So 12.7M previews made up 26.7% of 47.5M OD.  Bodes well for holds over the weekend.

 

Sunday shift won't be as strong as more typical V-Day films (V-Day in 2010 increased on Sunday), but Monday hold will be a little better.

 

>140M for the full 4.5 day period.

 

[druv10]

It's still a Marvel movie so Saturday should bump.

 

48M

39M

39M

126M OW/146M 4-day

[sfran43]

HAIL, CAESAR! earned an estimated $1.47M on Friday. Domestic total is now $16.2M. #HailCaesar

$48M? No WAY! 

 

And I've to wait a week! F...ck you, Fox Vzla 

[RichWS]

DMan, I'm sorry but no one knows what point you're trying to make here. The "same exact movie with different rating" is just giving people headaches.
