Central Intelligence $13m+ Friday.

 

Pretty good for a "Dwayne Johnson"-flick. Even though it's 5M lower than San Andreas's $18M OD. (Another film that had Dwayne Johnson as the lead).

Derp, I forgot to remove the preview number.  Still think it will increase a healthy amount from the actual Friday number.  

It might be able to pull $52-55M nile.  the way it's selling in my area, I wouldn't count it out.

Dory came within breaths of earning an A+, but hit that grade with females (65%) and under 25 (56%) who were the predominant crowd here. Dory also scored A+s with the under 18 (38%) and 18-24 group (18%).

CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE opened to an estimated $13.0M on Friday. #CentralIntelligence

thank you.  much appreciated.

its definitely having a shot at 150m with great saturday/sunday. That would guarantee it beating Shrek 2 unadjusted.

That's not really a problem. Several movies and stories share similar plotlines, it just depends on how they executive it, that makes them feel "fresh". Saying something is similar to something else, isn't necessarily a good complaint.

 

It doesn't have to be a problem but it can be. Knowing Docter worked on both made it impossible to separate the two out for me. And in the end, I found several things in Cranium I preferred (and vice versa) and nostalgia gave deference to the original.

Yeah, I meant an increase from the actual $46m Friday number and get to around that $52-$55m number on Saturday.  I agree that $60m is impossible, I forgot for a sec to remove the $9.2m preview number.  

 

Welcome as well.  

[MCKillswitch123]

Assuming that 56M will be the number, here's some multipliers for Dory:

 

Toy Story 3: 56M + 50.4M + 43.5M = 150M

Monsters University: 56M + 52.8M + 42.6M = 151.4M

Inside Out: 56 + 50.5 + 41.2M = 147.7M

Conjuring and Central Intelligence with under-100M DOM finish?

 

I can definitely see Conjuring making sub-100, CI will probably have good enough legs to squeak by 100 though

Pixar films have a Friday rush factor. They rarely increase on Saturdays.

you need to account for dory having bigger previews. it will probably stay flat minus previews.

Welcome as well.  

that Friday number is sick.  thanks for posting.  when I saw $50M-$52M yesterday I knew that had to be way low.  the late nights in my area were selling 70%+.  before Thursday numbers came in I had set a $55M minimum Friday based on the low end pre-sales of my local theater.

 

love seeing records slaughtered.  here's hoping for a $145M OW, but as I have read here this morning even if it doesn't get there let's be happy in the fact this is an amazing accomplishment in our current dismal box office environment.
