The BFG is going to be out grossed by films like Mike and Dave, The Shallows, The Purge....who would have thought.

Disney does sell its cuteness, but Universal goes for a cuteness chokehold imo. Minions are a world-wide phenomenon and girls of all ages LOVE how cute they are. Maybe not speaking proper English has something to do with it.

 

Walt Disney's original concept for film and theme parks was to create children's entertainment that didn't bore their parents out of their minds.   The humor has always been on two levels, intentionally.

I mean, it's not like we expected big things from it.

6.1m is great for TARZAN.

20m weekend happening?

To fall less than 50% in the 2nd weekend in summer (weekdays taking away business), after an inflated OW (3-day 38.5m) in this day and age is very creditable.

[PanaMovie]

Very good for Tarzan

I know but a sub $60M gross? That's just awful. That's not even expecting anything from it. Who knows if it'll hit $55M at this rate. 

[filmlover]

Central Intelligence is holding on remarkably well. $130M is the target now. Great run.

[MrFanaticGuy34]

Dory surpassed JP1, SM1, CA3 & THG, DOM-wise.

 

Great! Next up: IM3, TS3, TLK & POTC2.

 

Oh, and congratulations for joining the $600M+ WW-club, Dory.

Great number for Tarzan. It's putting together a nice little run.

 

Only a 7% increase for Dory, Pets hit it hard

[That One Girl]

i hope that people here like the birth of a nation, or we're gonna get some racists saying "fuck those black people."

Well, I'm going to see it this weekend.  We were going last Sunday but it didn't happen.  It sounds like it will be enjoyable, particularly to someone who read the books and likes the character.

[Blankments]

Damn great number for SLOP. Fuck those stupid pets.

[a2k]

If you have a pet fish which animation do you watch this weekend?

Surprised it didn't happen during Compton's run
