I'm not surprised that Independence Day is being projected under $20 million for Friday. My IMAX screening last night was only maybe one-third full, and the audience response was decidedly muted. As for me: I usually enjoy Roland Emmerich's work on a guilty pleasure level, but I thought this one was terrible.

We're seeing it tomorrow probably. My expectations are...low.

The Shallows has screwed my Casino big time. I expected a big breakout.

Isn't 15 mill a good breakout?

[filmlover]

Legs for The Shallows should be fine, if unspectacular.

I made bets for over $25m. Pretty stupid in hindsight.

So were mine, so I'm sorry to say that low expectations may not help much. 

 

I'm glad that Finding Dory is going to absolutely obliterate it. It doesn't scale the heights of its predecessor either, but at least it's still a highly entertaining, heartfelt film.

Dont worry, I haven't seen it either and probably won't for a while.

Yea....it's being played on one screen per theater. Pretty hard to do anything over $20M like that. However I'll admit I did have it at $20M but that's before I find out about how many screens it had lol

Man, looking at the upcoming slate over the next few weeks, no wonder the summer feels so blah.

Oh, you'll definitely love it. Blake Lively spends the whole movie wearing little in the way of clothing.

[WrathOfHan]

I'm waiting to rent The Shallows, the trailers weren't bad but nothing screamed that I needed to see it in theaters.

I'm so sorry to hear that. Really. You're missing out on Lively the Legend.
