Craziest audience was when I saw The Visit.  Some guy got so scared at one point, he dropped his popcorn all over the floor and yelled "WHAT THE HELL." in the best way possible.  Perfect audience right there...

 

I don't like seeing horror films in theaters that much. Usually because it's filled with other teenagers who just laugh obnoxiously.

Also, WB marketed Sully a lot better than Captain Phillips.

 

Sully has had a month of pretty intense promotion.

WB always does solid marketing on their big films of the month no matter what the film is. Sully' marketing was solid, word of mouth brought it in earlier this week with 10 minutes of applause at a showing on Sunday just several days before the film came out. The trailer made it look very interesting, and curious to see what will happen next.

Craziest audience I ever saw was first show opening day for Empire Strikes Back. Was at the head of the line and the crowd almost trampled the movie usher to death. Fun times.  

 

 

Was this guy in your theater?

5th UPDATE, Saturday, 11:15 PM: Climbing higher on Saturday than expected,Sully could end its three-day debut weekend of anywhere between $35.8M to $36.2M, depending on the strength of its Sunday. It took in about $15M today. This film should have some strong legs in the coming weeks, given it appeals to an older audience and its high A CinemaScore.

12.2 + 15 + 8.8 (-41.3%) = 36

4x will give Sully 144 with a 36 ow. Wonder if that's the high-end.

It will beat most of summer 100-200 grossers : IDR, CONJ2, ANGRY BIRDS, TARZAN, CI, GHOSTBUSTERS, BAD MOMS (, SP)

TREK, APOC and BOURNE will stay ahead probably.

That's an awesome number for Sully! Thinking 120 total is most certainly in the cards, not sure about over Gran Torino, we'll have to see how it holds next weekend and especially with the competition the two weeks after that.

 

Really liked the movie. Saw it for the latest show we had tonight, theatre wasn't too busy considering how well the movie is actually doing. As a whole the theatre has been pretty dead; one over performer isn't exactly enough to make up for four other movies that are showing good legs, but we should have gotten rid of already but there's just nothing to replace them with. Sully did 16.7M for us today, way up from the 11.9M OD.

With  a 36m OW and the fantastic WOM it's having I'm thinking 150m is in the cards for Sully. And maybe 250m+ WW. Another huge success for WB. 

 

$100m would be good OS although it has a staggered release, places like the UK aren't getting until December

 I was thinking of a little analysis for the movies released Summer 2016 (May - Aug) studio by studio. The numbers are till present day because I'm to lazy to remove the 11 days from September. But you can get a pretty good idea. It will be something like: DOM / OS / WW / Budget; and the Studios will be ranked from top to bottom by WW earnings. 

 

Disney

- Captain America: Civil War: 408 / 744 / 1.152 / 250

- Finding Dory: 483 / 462 / 945 / 200

- Alice Through the Looking Glass: 77 / 218 / 295 / 170

- The BFG: 55 / 110 / 165 / 140

- Pete's Dragon: 67 / 29 / 96 / 65

 

Total: 1.090 / 1.563 / 2.653 / 825 

 

Disney spent the most from all studios this summer, but they also had the biggest revenues thanks to their 2 big franchises. 

 

Warner Bros

- Suicide Squad: 303 / 378 / 681 / 175

- The Legend of Tarzan: 126 / 230 / 356 / 180

- The Conjuring 2: 102 / 217 / 319 / 40

- Me Before You: 56 / 144 / 200 / 20

- Lights Out: 66 / 71 / 137 / 5

- Central Intelligence: 127 / - / 127 / 25 (Universal distributed OS) 

- War Dogs: 38 / 23 / 61 / 40

- The Nice Guys: 36 / 21 / 57 / 50 

- Batman: The Killing Joke: 3.7 / - / 3.7 / -

 

Total: 858 / 1.084 / 1.942 / 535

 

So a great summer for WB most of the money came from low budget movies. Now, you could argue that the huge number is because of the big number of releases, but why would that matter if those releases are successful? The only movie that lost  money for sure is The Nice Guys. War Dogs still has territories to open to so it will likely break even. And after the home video release Tarzan will also likely break even.

Warner also had the best Total revenue / Budget ratio out of all studios (x3.6).

 

Universal

- The Secret Life of Pets: 360 / 407 / 767 / 75

- Warcraft: 47 / 386 / 433 / 160

- Jason Bourne: 157 / 224 / 381 / 120

- The Purge: Election Year: 79 / 30 / 109 / 10

- Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising: 55 / 52 / 108 / 35

- Central Intelligence: - / 87 / 87 / 25

- Popstar: 9 / - / 9 / 20

- Kubo and the Two Strings: - / 6 / 6 / -

 

Total: 707 / 1.192 / 1.899 / 545

 

Universal also had a good summer, their only flop being Popstar and that was quite cheap to make.

 

20th Century Fox

- X-Men: Apocalypse: 155 / 388 / 543 / 178

- Ice Age: Collision Course: 63 / 327 / 390 / 105

- Independence Day: Resurgence: 103 / 280 / 383 / 165

- Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates: 46 / 25 / 71 / 33

 

Total: 367 / 1.020 / 1.387 / 481

 

So not good and not bad for Fox. 

 

Sony / Columbia

- The Angry Birds Movie: 107 / 239 / 346 / 73

- Ghostbusters: 127 / 98 / 225 / 144

- Sausage Party: 91 / 14 / 105 / 19

- The Shallows: 55 / 44 / 99 / 17

- Money Monster: 41 / 52 / 93 / 27

- Don't Breath: 61 / 9 / 70 / 10

- League of Gods: 0.14 / - / - / -

- My Best Friend's Wedding: 0.07 / - / - / -

 

Total: 482 / 456 / 937 / 290

 

For all the shit they get, Sony is actually doing pretty well. Yeah, they have no big franchises, but they seem to be able to manage with small budget movies. Probably the only movie that lost them money this summer was Ghostbusters. Sony spent the least out of all major studios. 

 

Paramount

- Star Trek: Beyond: 156 / 138 / 294 / 186 

- TMNT: Out of Shadows: 82 / 162 / 244 / 135

- Ben-Hur: 25 / 29 / 54 / 100

- Florence Foster Jenkins: 25 / 17 / 42 / 19

 

Total: 288 / 371 / 659 / 440

 

Now that's what  call a disaster. Sony might's missed 1b WW for the Summer, but at least they kept their budgets under control and managed to make good profit. Paramount on the other hand :rofl:

Like seriously, I bet they are in the red for all the movies released in the last 4 months. 

 

Lionsgate

- Now You See Me 2: 65 / 263 / 328 / 90

- Nerve: 38 / 17 / 55 / 20

- Mechanic: Resurrection: 17 / 18 / 35 / 40

- Hell or High Water: 18 / - / 18 / 12

- Cafe Society: 10 / 10 / 20 / 30

 

Total: 148 / 308 / 456 / 192

 

So yeah, pretty bad. But Lionsgate sells the OS rights so the overall image is not really as clear as it seems.

 

 

Overall, this shows the bigger and bigger difference between the Top 2/3 and the rest of the studios.

@James Universal distributed Kubo And The Two Strings OS.

 

Anyway, absolutely stellar OW for Sully, more than double Bridge Of Spies'. Dat Hudson Miracle powah. Dat Tom Hanks powah.

Just updated:) I wonder how much they contributed to the budget.
