Nerve is having a better run than I envisioned really.

fascinating # for Nine Lives.  I wonder how much it got with Thursday previews.

[MikeQ]

It looks to me like Suicide Squad, though another big "miss" generally speaking, will have somewhat better WOM than Batman v Superman. It strikes me as a film that, while lacking structure and being a "mess", is more broadly entertaining. The 'A' grade for those under 18 doesn't surprise me - my 'Little Bro' who is under 18 told me over the phone tonight that the movie was 'amazing'. I think it also helps that Suicide Squad appears to have good appeal to both women and men. It will be interesting to see exactly where it goes after it's opening weekend.

 

The general fears of DC running themselves into the ground seem somewhat exaggerated to me. While it may feel like (and truly be, depending who you talk to) such missed opportunities for Suicide Squad and BvS, and those can't be recovered in this current iteration of the DCEU, it is completely possible for DC to put this behind them and move forward. They haven't been lacking in the marketing department, and that's half the game in terms of ensuring wide exposure/interest and a huge opening. If they can pair that with a film that is more widely considered a great one that is a cohesive, story driven piece with a vision from the writer/director/team, they can make this work. Even if some people drift away, good final products moving forward can lead to strong reviews and WOM that will help audiences decide to reinvest. I'll be curious to see how 'Wonder Woman' fares, critically and commercially.

 

Peace,

Mike

O/U 145M? Good on a 120M budget (5M less than Renner's Bourne) but ouch that drop.

3). Bad Moms (STX), 3,215 theaters (0) / $4.1M Fri. (-57%) / 3-day cume: $12.6M(-47%)/Total cume: $49.4M/ Wk 2

70M+ should happen. Yuge profits.

4). The Secret Life of Pets (ILL/UNI), 3,417 theaters (-260) / $3.5M Fri.(-38%) / 3-day cume: $11.6M (-39%) / Total cume: $319.6M/ Wk 5

IO is still on. Amazing.

5). Star Trek Beyond (PAR), 3,263 theaters (-665) / $2.8M Fri. (-58%) / 3-day cume: $10.2M (-59%) / Total cume: $127.9M/ Wk 3

U 150M? TREK's run has been disappointing.

Yeah, I think that coupled with no schools for a couple of weeks or so could help it have decent holds (relatively) and not have the 1.99x of BVS.

140 x 2.2 = 308 would be great. Leaves it a shot at 800M WW.

Beginning of the year, few people would have thought SS could come within 100M of BVS WW.

I couldn't agree more with your post in general, but in terms of EOT, that's just Doug Liman's style. He routinely throws out scripted third-acts and/or backs himself into a creative corner because that's the only way he feels he can organically discover what's the "right" way for each particular story. He thrives in that chaos and panic, but it can be hell on the crew and others on the creative team if they're not used to it. 

LOL Liman is a psycho.

Yeah it will come down to legs. But if it does 310 dom, 490 without china is possible just looking at ow of some markets. Legs...don't know 

[Krissykins]

 Those Bourne, Trek and Ice Age drops.

 

Fine with Ghostbusters 52%, isn't as bad compared with those 60% ones. 

 

Great for Nerve and Bad Moms. 

 

Obviously thats a great number for Suicide Squad but I'm not happy with the film so, whatever lol.

There are some schools going back right now, though.

[picores]

Star Trek should hit 150m but fall behind X-Men. Jason Bourne aims at 140-145m. Ghostbusters with 130m, enough to be over Central Intelligence and Tarzan.

 

Bourne falling this hard makes sense, WOM is mixed at best. But Star Trek? Reminds me of Civil War. Great critics and supposedly WOM but very weak holds.

 

Star Trek Beyond: 150-155m

Jason Bourne: 140-145m

Ghostbusters: 130-135m

 

Another good hold for Pets...350m locked by all means and The Jungle Book should start worrying.

Are there any numbers around how many T-Mobile tickets were sold?
