In about 12 hours.

[a2k]

I think a 57% drop for BVS (for 10m) and a 45% one for ZOOTP (for 8m) against TJB.

April right now is starting to feel like April 2013. 

 

Not even close to that month.

 

Undoubtely, TJB/Barbershop3 combo will provide a huge improvement over April 2013.

And this year we have 5 weekends in April.

 

After this weekend, April 2016 has grossed 275M.

 

I'm guessing 30M + 160M + 50M + 130M + 40M + 80M = 490M for the rest of the month

 

765M April 2016 vs 635M April 2013

Some people pointed out that a sub 30% drop is never a bad thing, especially on a 6th weekend.

 

Just saw that the Sunday estimate was much higher.  Just a reminder to myself to never fully trust the Saturday weekend estimates!

Why would you, anyways?

 

Also, you can't even fully trust the Sunday estimates.

Movie making is a long process that you dont get to know whether you did it right or not untill you see the result.

 

Exactly.  That is the point though.  They knew what they had and saw essentially the finished product as far back as August of 2015.  They had another 9 months after seeing that mess when they could have fixed it with anything from editing to re-shoots.

This deserves many likes.

 

Remember that on Fury Road, both Hardy and Theron thought Miller had lost his mind. And not just during parts of filming, they still thought that even after they were done. When they saw the end result they were blown away.  But at the time, two very experienced actors in the middle of making a film that ended up winning, what, 6 oscars, thought they were in a direction-less, unwatchable piece of crap being directed by a madman with Alzheimers.

I don't think anyone disagrees with all of that.  The point with BvS is they had an essentially finished product last summer.  They knew what this film was going to be like way back then and had 9 months to fix it.

Weren't there also rumors that Hardy and Theron didn't really get along while making the movie? Wouldn't surprise me if they were true but yeah, you never know.

Theron said it was Tom Hardy she struggled to get on with, not the director.

Who is fudging now?

 

[a2k]

Was surprised a couple of days back when I saw that Tammy's multiplier was 4x - 21.5m ow/84.5m dom. On closer inspection realized it was a Wed release and had a 5-day ow of 33.3m. So legs not really stellar/4x but still good.

Yep LOL at the haters that said WB was fudging. No fudging for BvS at all.

The Cinematographer said Hardy showed up 2-3 hours late almost every day.  So she wasn't the only one struggling with him.
