Terrible Warcraft 

[babz06]

I just noticed that Disney could have the top 3 films again next year.

1) Star Wars: Episode 8

2) Beauty and the Beast

3) Guardians of the Galaxy 2

 

Probably, the only films that could challenge that top 3 would be Spider-Man: Homecoming, Despicable Me 3, or Deadpool 2(if it comes out)

Welcome aboard!Its been definitely selling truckloads here too. Even a 7AM sellout.

Well, let's see: Given the trajectory of ticket prices since 1989 (when NATO started tracking them), the average ticket price for 2016 is probably going to be around $8.79. Adjusted to that figure, Shrek the Third made $155M OW after inflation. If FD seriously has a shot of making it that high, it could end up having an unquestionably legit record for highest animated OW ever.

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

I pointed out the drop off Wednesday on another board.  The rate at which it was failing on those two weekdays alone was a horrible sign.  Went from 1.4M down on OW to 5.6M by end of the first week!

To be honest, given how high Jungle Book was received OW it wouldn't surprise if Beauty and the Beast really broke out and got up to like 150M OW. Of course I'm going with a more safer prediction being 125M but 150 is def possible.

THE CONJURING 2 earned an estimated $5.43M on Friday. Domestic total is now $61.6M. ‪#‎TheConjuring2‬

Wonder why BvS closed. It still had business and could have posted a slightly better number.

Average ticket prices include everything 2d,3d,imax etc. So its hard to extrapolate for a movie. 3d shares for family flicks are terrible and it barely has any imax boost as well. So dont know how we can "adjust" shrek 3 which released before 3d era.

I think Shrek 3 will have the edge for adjusted OW.

I assume WB didn't really care about it anymore.

 

They aren't alone; Universal closed MBFGW2 3 weeks ago despite it making 300k on its last weekend.
