I'm on east coast time but with west coast attitude. It's night... where are the numbers?!  

 

Boring box office with movies like Arrival means Rth's departure.

A drop in the 55% range (around $38M) would be a pretty solid start for Strange. Taking out the Thursday previews that would be around -50% for Fri-Sun. 

 

Trolls is indeed holding well, but it's going to be hit hard by Moana in two weeks. If it passes $150M, I don't think it will be by all that much. 

 

Yeah, a big drop for Strange didn't make sense to me.

 

It's a solid entry and should have decent legs.

Sigh of relief re: Arrival. 

[Captain Craig]

I guess too many millennials are out doing their crybaby protests vs going to the movies. 

If these early #s hold it's hard to find outside sources impacting the box office.

So glad to see that number for arrival such a great start

Go Arrival!

So happy with those Arrival numbers. A fantastic, beautiful movie with a great message especially after this shitshow of a week.

With any luck Villeneuve could maintain breakeven after Blade Runner comes out

Villeneuve has really proven himself with Prisoners, Sicario and now Arrival. Blade Runner 2049 is in safe hands and I imagine he'll be approached for bigger films in the years to come.

People fear riots, so they stay at home.

 

I don't think it's an issue.

 

Seriously, DS doing less than $38M is almost shocking.

Arrival coulda done $22M - $23M

People fear riots, like me, cowards.

Not all audience is brave like you people...

If people were afraid of riots, they wouldn't bring their kids to Trolls either.

 

Though if they were showing Zootopia right now, even I would be afraid to show up.

Good for Amy, she seems like a good person. Unlike everyone else in this video. Yuck! Just horrible.

I'm hoping that he turns any opportunities to do big blockbusters. I want him to keep making "interesting movies".

I doubt he'll ever do a blockbuster but he'll do more midbudget films with $50-70m budgets, studios will take a risk with him if he delivers with Blade Runner
