Quote

20th Century Fox held previews last night for its gay teenage romance title Love, Simon and drew a strong estimated $800K from 927 theaters for a per location average of $863.

 

Now, it’s not often that sneak preview figures are reported, but to provide some perspective, and know that these are not comps, Dwayne Johnson’s movies racked up the following in their previews: Baywatch ($1.25M), Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle ($2M) and San Andreas ($3.1M).

This movie seems mildly depressing to me. How in the world are Jennifer Garner and Josh Duhamel playing the parents of a high schooler? Seems like only yesterday when they were both TV stars not far from high school age themselves. Time sure does fly.

Not as depressing as when Garner played a mom in Miracles from Heaven.

Kept thinking the lead in this looked familiar in the marketing, and it finally dawned on me he's the creepy horndog older brother in JW, lol.

@EmpireCity has there been any increase in tracking at all? Or do you think it'll still land in the low teens

 

I have to do my attendance predictions for work tonight or tomorrow morning and I really don't know how much higher than Everything Everything I should go

The tracking actually dropped this week.  The theater count is going to be smaller as well.  If this hits $40m domestic it will be a surprise at this point.  Most have it at $30m or less.

Do you think the 800k from Saturday will have an impact on this weekend?

It was Love Simon! 

 

Loved the film. As a gay guy it was emotional, realistic and there were no stereotypes. I imagine it will be a very important film for a younger generation. 

 

Great cast too. 

 

9/10. 

[SchumacherFTW]

Thought this was pretty good, definitely surprised me how good it was actually. Good performances, good story and just an all round good movie

Now that I’ve seen the film, this is sad news. Hopefully WOM catches on.
