I'm getting the feeling that's really gonna tank. I bet in the casino Bridget Jones 3 was going to do even worse OW. The last one opened to only 7 m.

DAJK Posted September 9, 2016 Author Share Posted September 9, 2016 Assuming Sully does 30M this weekend, I think the race for second will be somewhat right next weekend. Blair Witch - $22M Sully - $17.5M Bridget Jones - $16.5M Snowden - $12M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last Bridget Jones started in 530 theaters. It had an explosive PTA that weekend. I'm thinking this one will do well with a $12-14M opening since it's apparently much better than the second and Renee has been doing the rounds for her comeback (which I really hope works out, crazy to think this is her first movie in 6 years). Blair Witch, I have no idea. Between the long delays, minimal marketing, and what will probably be lackluster reviews, Snowden seems DOA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayhawk the Hutt Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 (edited) Blair Witch is such a wildcard next weekend. I fear it's gonna do sub $15m, but it could do $30m+. We'll have to see if the very good reviews from Comic Con continue with the screenings at TIFF. Edited September 9, 2016 by Jayhawk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxmoser3 Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Very solid preview number for Sully! It skews older audiences, and had the NFL game last night with the North Carolina Panthers and Denver Broncos. But either way with or without football interfering not bad number for Sully, it looks like a debut between $25-$30 million seems likely and should have a leggy run with solid word of mouth.

Jandrew Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Sully's gonna skew old as hell. The weekend number will be good. I'm curious about the legs though. I'll be very surprised if this ends up passing Flight, which had much more going for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next weekend should hold well but then it faces a slew of movies targeting adult audiences (Magnificent Seven, Deepwater Horizon, The Girl on the Train, The Accountant) after that.

MCKillswitch123 Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 @filmlover Dude, everything is set in place for Blair Witch to do at least 25M+. Viral marketing? Check. Tons of buzz coming off of great festival reviews? Check. The brand of one of the most successful (if controversial) horror films ever? Check. Null horror competition (unless 31 goes wide and/or The Disappointments Room breaks out, which )? Check. It should do at the very least 10 Cloverfield Lane numbers.

I honestly haven't really been following the movie (although posters for it all over the mall right now lol), hence why I said why I have no idea how it will do (you never know with these kinds of movies until they open, really).

Maxmoser3 Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Blair Witch is all hype. Remember Unfriended people? People on here expected a debut in the mid to high 20's opening weekend and it debuted with $15 million and made $32 million domestic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
