Yes I meant "closeted" in a different respect.

 

So Will Smith is closeted as well?

How high will Dory go this weekend?

 

$80 million?

$85 million?

$90 million+?? (With a $26.5 million Friday, it could happen)

 

 

I think O/U 80M

[WrathOfHan]

JW is a decent blockbuster bogged down by absolutely awful characters. 

[La Binoche]

Yeah JW was a pretty good movie. I was entertained. It was never going to measure up to JP.

I gotta give some credit to Trevorrow's world building. The park itself seemed so damn coll despite the lackluster movie it was part of

Will The Purge even hit 60M total? Disaster.

This is part of why I figure IDR will do ok.  When people are looking at 'what is out', the competition isn't fierce, if you don't feel like animation or already saw Dory.

I mean unless IDR is an even bigger disaster than the other films. Like if nothing that's out interests me or is really bad, I just won't go to the theater. Most people don't have $15 every weekend just to spend on a film because nothing else out is good.

Independence Day 2 would end up with $135-165 million DOM with a $50 million OW - not that awful.

 

Purge 3 should make a tidy profit on a $10 million budget. 

 

Tarzan and BFG will both bomb.

 

Pets, Bourne 5 and SS might be the only 3 remaining $150 million+ films this summer.

It's funny how everyone was predicting IDR's failure e.g. not crossing 100M but now, that it's doing much better than expected, people are calling it a disappoint.

 

This site has as much integrity as Donald Trump.

 

But, it's the Internet, so it is a free for all. Say what you want, no one gives two hoots.

 

 

[superweirdo87]

Star Trek should be solid for 150M domestic and Ghostbuster is a possibility that could go either way.

Except no one said it was going under 100 million.

Not every weekend, but until Bourne comes out, to me IDR seems 'all there really is' besides XA's waning legs.  In the summer people want to go to the movies, and while they want the best out there, in my experience will settle for something that looks like decent fun.  We'll see.  I don't think IDR's opening weekend is going to be all that fantastic, but I am hoping its legs will be good.

I'm still hoping IDR wins the summer.

Pets, Ghostbusters and Star Trek 3 should do better than everything else this summer that's not Civil War/XA/Dory.

 

Bad Moms and IA5 should be mid-level hits, too. 

 

July 2016 looks far more well-rounded than any other month this summer.

I guess the sequel fatigue has me going way low for ST3. $160-180 million would be a decent result all things considered. 

 

Ghostbusters needs fantastic WOM to counteract the negative buzz in order to reach $150 million+ DOM.

‘Dory’ Still The Big Fish With $62M+, ‘ID4’ Sequel In High $40Ms, ‘Shallows’ Rides A Wave Toward $13M – Midday B.O.

By Anthony D'Alessandro 4 mins ago

Fox’s Independence Day: Resurgence is likely to post a Friday between $18M-$19M for a weekend in the high $40M range at 4,068 venues.

Sony’s The Shallows is look quite healthy with an estimated $5M Friday on its way to a projected $13M at 2,962 locations. STX Entertainment’s Free State of Jones is limping at this point in time with a projected $3M for Friday and an $8M FSS opening at 2,815 sites. Broad Green/Amazon’s Neon Demon isn’t looking so hot with a $500K Friday and $1.6M-$1.8M opening. These figures could swing up or down by nightfall.

 

62m? dory. I don't see how that is possible

"20th Century Fox’s Independence Day: Resurgence likely to post a Friday between $18M-$19M four a weekend in the high $40M range at 4,068 venues. Where this Roland Emmerich pic, at an estimated production cost of $165M-$200M, is expected to deliver is overseas with a projected $100M-$150M from China, Russia, Latin America and the United Kingdom. Last night, Resurgence generated $4M from 3,200 theaters, a number that’s on par with what Paramount’s Mission: Impossible: Rogue Nation delivered in its first night. Current Rotten Tomatoes rating is 40% from 87 reviews. Sony’s The Shallows is look quite healthy with an estimated $5M Friday on its way to a projected $13M at 2,962 locations."

I forgot Star Trek.  I'm looking forward to that.  But I'll see them both.  I don't think the others will target the same audience.  However, I'm not sure what IA5 is.
