I'm a White House Down fan. Sucks the vastly inferior Olympus beat it to the punch.

Just casually looking then you notice TFA's 10-day...

That's a terrible multi for what could be a well-received comedy with relatively minimal competition for its demo minus Bad Moms. I don't see it barely getting a 2x when none of the Feig-McCarthy collaborations have a multi any lower than 3.8x.

 

Because of the GB brand, it'll obviously be more frontloaded, but summer weekdays should get it to a 2.8x-3.2x. Maybe 3.3x-3.5x if WOM is excellent. It has far more upside than any other tentpole except Pets and SS, so $200 million+ DOM is always a very outside possibility. 

 

With $50 million OW, I'd say $140 million DOM-$165 million DOM. With $60 million OW, I'd say $170 million DOM-$200 million DOM. 

 

We'll just have to agree to disagree.

Who the fuck wanted this movie? Obviously nobody. That's where your frustration should lie: the fact that no one wanted to see this movie.

 

The original was a product of its time. Nothing more.

 

You missed the point.

I can't until the freak outs happen when The Secret Life of Pets opens below $50M.

That isn't going to happen (I'm dropping my prediction though)

I still think it'll open with $50M on the dot but yeah, I'm sensing any major breakout ala The Lorax.

That TFA gross will never not be ridiculous. It outgrosssed TDK in 10 days

My new prediction is 68/260. Legs might be a bit generous given that it's going to have weak WOM among teens and childless adults.

White House Down is a really fun Die Hard ripoff but Bridesmaids is the best studio comedy of the decade. 

 

No and No

 

WHD was mediocre at best and 21 Jump Street is waaaaay funnier

 

Bridesmaids was pretty good though. I liked Spy better.

80M OW for Pets is happening. Accept defeat folks.

This should apply to Batman v. Superman doing $331M off a terrible RT and lukewarm WOM.  Not much difference there in total considering the difference in RT score.

 

There's not much difference in 70 million dollars domestic, 260m worldwide? really?

Pets OD will be below 50M, tho. 

 

Pets is the big July movie. It is inevitable.

The Secret Life of Pets will still do fine, though. Funny that Hollywood seeks out that "teenage boy" audience so much still when July's biggest movies will make most of their money either from families (Pets) or from adults (Ghostbusters, Star Trek, and Jason Bourne are likely to heavily skew over 25).

 

I think Hollywood lost most of the teenage boy audience a while back. Video games and internet is keeping their attention.
