This is going to attract the under appreciated morbidly curious audience.

I don't think morbid curiosity is generally a big box office draw. People seem to avoid any movie that looks remotely divisive at the movie theater. I'd be shocked if this isn't a massive flop.

It is at best a home video draw I would agree, there is a long list of quite the talked about disaster like Gigli that didn't brought much curious audience.

The lack of nominations...i wouldn't read too much into it. Acting noms would have been excluded considering how weird the characters look.

And the MST3K fans.

This seems to be sitting at 20/100 at Critics Choice. 
Probably only 1 rating but...well...

I thought the trailer wasn't as half as bad as I was expecting.

 

There's def enough theatre lovers to be attracted to this.

 

On the other hand, it could flop hard, who knows lol

Conservatively, I'm expecting Phantom of the Opera numbers.

Wondering if Annie in 2014 would be a good comparison for this. Opened on December 19 and did $15.86M over the weekend. Ended its run with $85.11M domestic. Thoughts?

Annie is primarily a family movie with Christmas worked into the storyline. It should do much better at time of year. So, lower.

Fur real guys this was my cake

$200M confirmed.

Jennifer Hudson and Judy Dench were on Graham Norton last night. 
 

They performed the songs live, like Les Mis. So it’ll be interesting to see Jason Derulo’s part, yikes.

I expect this to open $5M-$10M, but I honestly can't wait to see this. I expect this to be a massive, massive bomb though.

In the vue multiplexs in the Uk it's already sold 12K tickets  in advanced sales only for the first day. It's really really good. It's about the 70% of all his capacity, In some structures all the 3 showings of the day are sold out, they should add some other screening but it's all full already. But I guess universal is counting on its long legs.

i just checked some  raandom locations in London and while the movie plays on some pretty small screens, there's no way that this movie sold 70% of capacity. Most of the time, day shows were empty and a hand full of tickets were sold for the evening shows.

I noticed at my local Cineworld, it had a few sell outs over next weekend already. But it’s in small rooms, because of Star Wars, Jumanji and Frozen.

BOM reporting $95,000,000 for the budget.
