[terrestrial]

is that belonging to the weekend or to the Thursday actuals? Or to both? Previews for that were earlier.. so I am not sure

PASSENGERS earned an estimated $3.23M on Thursday. 2-day domestic total is $7.3M. #Passengers

[superweirdo87]

So, Passengers might wind up 120M to 140M domestic? That's not great, but not bad.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story ended its first week of domestic play with a solid $16.7 million Thursday gross. To wit, that’s a 12% jump from yesterday, and it brings the Walt Disney blockbuster’s week-long cume to $221.9m. That puts it above Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them ($211m) as the 10^th-biggest hit of the year in North America. It will presumably be passing Doctor Strange ($227.6m) sometime today for ninth place, but Suicide Squad ($325m) may have to wait until maybe Monday or Tuesday.

Yay we are back lol. It just struck me as funny since some daily threads linger in the main forum for days and this one was like poof and gone. 

 

Thanks @terrestrial the mobile view has been much better.

A bit too high, but 100M is still possible.

[narniadis]

That Thursday does seem to make 90 at least a more obtainable goal for Passengers and 100m isn't totally gone if it can do well post the 25th. AC is this year's Point Break (and every other Christmas bomb) in that nobody cared beyond a few and terrible reviews killed whatever chances it might have had otherwise.

great for R1 and Sing. Ass and Pass continue to flop 

[Elessar]

Should have made AC CGI animated with animals...

Whatever small change against R1 those two turds might have had was completely gone once the reviews confirmed what the trailers made quite evident.

both these movies were tracking higher originally. It is obvious that the terrible reviews killed the interest that was in these films.

Great for Rogue One

[filmlover]

Passengers should still reach $80M, Assassin's Creed will be lucky if it hits $50M.

Yeah, that seems decent.

 

What's everyone expecting of Fences on Sunday? The theater count is looking to be low-ish and it's only getting 1 screen everywhere (and has a long running time that limits the number of shows per day).

Anecdotal evidence, but that trailer gets insane buzz every time I've seen it. South Florida loves Denzel, though. I think it'll do fairly well throughout the holidays and do 70+ at the box office. Maybe 5 or 6 mill on Sunday.

It is weird that it is opening on Sunday

[trifle]

Passengers is a good film, I expect it to have great legs once people figure that out.  I haven't seen AC yet.

 

Oddly, Passengers demographics skewed older than I expected, at least the day they tracked that.  Which might make the weekend bump higher too, (except Christmas eve).

Weird, cause I feel like everything's been muted despite Denzel and the excellent reviews. Guess the movie's too heavy to find a mass audience and Paramount thinks so too so something like $75M total is probably the high end.

Rogue One, see post earlier

made another $15 million to bring its foreign cume to $197.9m. And with the $222m in domestic grosses, Gareth Edwards’s sci-fi heist caper has earned $419.8m worldwide, putting it in 15^th place for the year between Jason Bourne ($415m) and Warcraft ($433m). The film should top $450m today and make a play for $500m by the end of the weekend.

I've never seen a movie on Christmas Day.

 

I haven't either. Christmas day is a time I spend with my family, so we don't usually go to the cinemas. I've seen movies the day after Christmas though.
