MEH-MORIAL DAY WEEKEND BOX OFFICE | Abandon all hope, the box office is dead. 3 day weekend #s X-Men 65M, Alice 28.1M, Angry Birds 18.7M, Civil War 15.1M, Neighbors 9.1M. Bad openings, horrible holdovers.

I'm guessing 25% drop for TMNT2.

That would be incredibly terrible multiplier off a $90M 4-day. I guess it's possible.

 

With a 29m Friday it could just do 70m 3-day and 85m 4-day, then finish in the 160s.

What about The Conjuring 2 ?

 

It will break out. It is entering a market completely lacking any horror movies and is a well known brand as well. I think a 40-50M OW or more is possible for it.

 

I actually don't think NYSM2 will fall huge from the first part for some reason, it just seems like disposable enough entertainment.

It'll still do fine for its budget tho, not a full-on tank

TMNT2 won't drop a lot, at least not enough to be called a flop or a bomb. I still see around a 50M OW and around a 120-150M close for it. They have a lot of fan trust this time with the introduction of Krang, Bebop, Rocksteady and Casey Jones. Fans have been waiting forever to see those characters in a big screen adaptation.

The budget is probably 150M. I guess that if it does 400M WW Paramount will be pleased but won't greenlight another sequel.

Closer to $120m, apparently.

[a2k]

Lone Ranger's 89.3m could be out of reach for Alice 2 with a mid-high 30s 4-day.

Funny story from last night

 

This guy around 20 comes in with his girlfriend. He's wearing a GOTG shirt and says he wants to go to Apocalypse. I was like "sorry but it doesn't open until Friday." He asked if there were any other superhero movies playing and I said "well we do have Civil War which is only here until Thursday."

 

"Nah, I don't like Marvel movies." And he left.

 

Love this guy!

actually there was a strong chance it could make money from just overseas alone but obviously it looks like this might not happen

Subtract ~30m from Civil War, add it to Dory instead and you're probably not off on the top 2.

 

Subtract $50m from Suicide Squad and give it to Jason Bourne.

EPIC and TOMORROWLAND were also MD openers.

EPIC did 42.8m 4-day / 107.5m dom.

TOMORROWLAND did 42.7m 4-day / 93.4m dom.

 

ALICE 2 DOM UNDER ALICE 1 OW looking plausible

 

 

Alice Through The Looking Glass has a strong chance of making less then the first did on it's opening weekend. What a bomb.

I have like the fifth lowest CW prediction in the Summer Game btw, people went full Neo on it

It's barely going to make more than Alice 1's first two days.

Damn. That would still be just a 5M decrease.
