WEEKEND ESTIMATES: 23.48 M THE BOSS | 23.44 M BVS: DOJ | 14.35 M ZOOTOPIA | 5.10 M HARDCORE HENRY

Ouch. Not very good for Hardcore Henry, worse than expected even. At least for me, it was. Oh well, hardly was this ever going to click w/audiences. It'll probably turn out profitable, if just out of an international release, but The Gift or The Boy this certainly won't be for STX.

WB really should have just made this wide out of the gate.

Both A24 and STX have a really good catalogue of movies.

STX has really only had one critical success so far (The Gift). I guess we'll see how Free State of Jones turns out, moving it near the heart of summer would indicate confidence (although they probably did it to receive the 4th of July boost).

Big 76% SAT jump for #BatmanvSuperman, 3rd wknd comes in at $23.4M, off 54%. $296.7M cume. Will join $300M club midweek.

How is 2k/screen on 493 screens "very respectable," especially with the director coming off of Mud?

By comparison, Sicario did 1.7M on 59 screens in it's second weekend. Warner really fucked up the release of this.

The problem with BVS has been the Fridays.

 

BVS did +122% on Friday and +76% on Saturday.

F7 did +185% on Friday and +55% on Saturday.

Which gives a better 2 day gross ?

Let's start with 10m Thursday as an experiment.

 

22.2 (+122%) + 39.0 (+76%) = 61.2

28.5 (+185%) + 44.2 (+55%) = 72.7

 

Once Friday bump is shitty, a good Sat bump though desirable can undo only so much of the damage.

Midnight Special wasn't really given much promotion and the fact it's been released just shy of a wide (600 theaters) release seems like the expansion was a contractual obligation.

Melissa McCarthy wins.

This should sum up the legs for 10 Cloverfield Lane perfectly!

 

This is for you:

[WrathOfHan]

When all's said and done The Boss could make over 70M domestically.

Queen of America, she didn't have any flop yet since her break out back in 2011, even Jen had Serena
