No AMC Empire 25 or E-Walk , NYC  because both playing (Empire Imax only) combined be #2

 

AMC Empire 25 is usually top 5, it probably would have been number 1 if it had FB exclusively although still impressive that both combined would have charted at 2. What where their rankings?

Manchester by the Sea actually went up from estimates and increased on Sunday. Quite excellent. Variety says it's expected to be in 800-900 theaters by December 16.

Should become Roadside's highest grossing movie (over Mud's $21.6m) before or right after the nominations.

Gonna try to see Manchester this weekend.

A lot of Canadian theaters on that list. Do you know what the Canadian opening weekend was for Beasts? Curious cuz Potter always did well in Canada.

They keep trying to estimate Trolls past Dr. Strange but it just never quite happens.

Trolls being a family film really should be holding better than Strange.

@Nutella of Arabia

Since the weekend-update, means for me today I 'follow' seemingly every thread I am posting in without having clicked on any 'follow this thread' thingies

 

Plus a rather strange forced on question row beside having been logged in (forced = without 'answering' all of them I wasn't able to reach anything within BOT, incl profile,...).

 

Not a complain, only an information

 

Forum software update. Each user needs to set up some basic security questions -- and these were prompted at the first opportunity, so in other words when you were first active after the update. 

 

The "thread following" behavior can be adjusted in your user settings (notifications) where you can turn off all email updates or change as needed.

I'm still amazed that Civil War had worse legs than Iron Man 3 and ended up lower.

After finally seeing it, I'm not.

CW's preview were $9.5m bigger so it's FSS was actually smaller than IM3s.  Minus previews legs were both around 2.48 with CW's slightly bigger.

 

I love both films though IM3 is lighter and certainly has the more upbeat ending.

Wow. Considering that it's only a single screen, I'm impressed. Seattle represent.

I've had some pretty spectacular club failures, no question, so rest assured I don't have the notion that i think I'm very good at this. But, if i want to base my predictions to a significant extent on my own biases and what I hope happens, so what? What's the worst that can happen if a club turns out to be way off -  someone like yourself will make a crack about it?

 

That's not really too much to worry about so I think I'll stick with my approach. Who knows, maybe I'll get better at it? 

So what?? Your clubs are pure bullshit, that's what!

 

And there's no "Maybe I'll get better at it?" You won't get better at it......because you make the exact same mistake over and over again, idiot.

 

Oh, and don't smile about it.....you're just a delusional lost man!

not in top 20, quite a few films opened day/date both Empire & E-walk this year, 1st one for WB from memory

Civil War dropped worse for simple reasons: it's darker and more slow paced than any other MCU film.

I also think the fact that you have to know at least 5 movies to understand what going on which might've turned off some of the GA. Despite that I loved CW.
