For Kubo, $100m dom is the insane breakout level.

I disagree since it looks far broader appealing than any of their previous films, including Coraline which adjusts to 90. But yes, 100 for stop motion will never be easy. Except it doesn't even look like stop motion, so again big plus for it.

Just wait till this breaks out big on Christmas. I actually think this has a good shot of being #1 over that weekend ahead of Rogue One.

Everyone on the site wants to go into the porn business eventually, I guess.

Why not.

CJohn started saying it on Dory's OW because he was mad that Dory was the movie to breakout this summer and it eventually caught on with Baumer.

What's there to hate about the forgetful fish?

It's being positioned in the dreaded slot of late August (when the tumbleweeds begin rolling in) so probably not.

I see that as an advantage since it's obviously not opening huge. But where it's at it can open to  23m or something and then get a 4x+ multi via lack of competition for over a month and WOM.

Say goodbye to Disney’s The BFG which is looking at a second Friday-Sunday span drop of 57% to 60% for $7.5M to $8M and a running 10-day take of $39M

 

If these numbers hold than BFG will find it tough to touch 60m.

Trolls looks like it's going to send DWA tumbling further down that rabbit hole they're in. That said, I never expected Home to do as well as it did, and this is officially the year of animation at the box office, so who knows. 

[WrathOfHan]

Trolls is a real wildcard. 

[MovieMan89]

That's heartbreaking for BFG, btw, but I think the market really is too flooded for it to have any chance right now.

Not insane. Do you think that Rouge one will have a $70m second weekend? Perhaps a $55m second weekend? Maybe Sing can sneak ahead of it, even if Sing was released on a Wednesday.

[Jake Gittes]

A $8m weekend for The BFG would mean increasing 10% or less on Friday. I find that hard to believe.

Only in a worst case WOM for Rogue One/best case WOM for Sing scenario would it be possible.

I'm expecting 160-170M for Rogue One's OW and because it's the holidays there's going to be a sub-50% drop. I'm expecting a 55-60M 5 day for Sing

Pretty sure Pets confirms the real reason Dory did so well. All hail Albert Brooks ! Also I feel like Sing will be TGD to Pets's Inside Out.
