SS dropping only 18% 

[filmscholar]

A friend texted me the SS drop, I said he was lying.   Holy sh!t.  

[a2k]

I see SS doing 318-322 at this point.

It should climb to#6 on this un-adjusted WB all-time chart

Reminds me of Man of Steel in the early going.

They're estimating suicide squad getting a bump up from Saturday to Sunday, 3.77 to 3.96 and I really don't see how that holds. Actuals will have something closer to a 25% drop for the weekend I think. Still good though.

Most movies went up about 5% last year.

So 310 domestic is locked for SS. Maybe 320 is still possible! it will be fun seeing BvS just 10 millions above a Harley Quinn movie. 

 

Internacional numbers can reach 400 depending on this week results.

 

700M WW is locked now. Might hit 400M OS as well. It had a 23M OS week, should have 20M+ in the tank from current markets and 10M+ from Japan

 

DC Entertainment adaptation Suicide Squad generated a further estimated $11.8m for $375.5m so far, ahead of its release in Japan next weekend.

I guess I never really looked at it, was assuming it was similar to other Monday holiday weekends.

About 25/80 sounds right. It will have great legs for sure as there is no adult skewing movie in the market. Might nudge up to 30-35M if people rush out to watch it in IMAX like they did for Sniper.

[Webslinger]

Really good holds across the board, which is unsurprising for Labor Day weekend.

 

I'm really happy that Don't Breathe has been so successful thus far. Even with tough competition ahead, $80 million could be in play.

 

Suicide Squad has rebounded nicely after large drops in its second and third weekends.

 

No Manches Frida had a pretty solid breakout performance. It's certainly not on the jaw-dropping level of Instructions Not Included three years ago, but the $10,000 average is quite impressive.

 

I'm not surprised that either of the new wide releases were DOA. The Light Between Oceans could have been a decent little performer if Disney had put at least a little bit of effort into marketing it, but Morgan looked like a tough sell based on its trailer.

Even OS it sunk 50%+ from IA4. There will be no IA6.

That's what people don't understand.

 

Fox is better off just having Blue Sky make a new IP rather than having them crank out more shit that people are rejecting.

[BluRayHiDef]

Great potential news for Suicide Squad. Fantastic estimates, which I hope hold.
