How is Arrival a cash grab????? 

 

Because its made so that the studio can make money. Its a business.

Box office tracking this Christmas felt lackluster to me.  We have some films like RO doing really great but IDK this time of year on here is really nostalgic for me.  I was active on BOM since I was 15 (I'm 28 now) and we have had some freaking exhilarating holiday runs.  I think it's mostly the very mediocre new films we had open but the fact that only one of them BARELY broke 20 for the 5 day probably had a lot to do with it.  

 

Oh well, next Christmas looks like something special.

It's going to overdrive this week.

 

Will be around 430 to 450 million by Jan ND.

 

I wonder how many movies have had a $30m DOM day after already passing $250m DOM? I assume TFA, and Avatar had several, and maybe Titanic, Jurassic World and the Avengers as well? But probably not too many. 

 

That's the kind of company R1 is keeping right now.

Arrival was good, but people talk about it like it was second coming. I enjoyed it, but it didn't have a lasting effect on me (like Incendies..that was awesome)

I love your profile picture.

[Lordmandeep]

520 million for RO seems assured.

 

It will make another 100 million till Jan 2nd and make another 100 million after.

 

It's at around 318 million right  now.

No. Titanic didn't even had a day over 10M.

Yeah, it will do at least 100m after next weeks 4 day weekend. So we can add 100m to whatever that # is and say that's the likely floor.

If Episode VIII and IX perform as well as I think they will, by the end of the decade we could have three SW movies in the Top Five biggest DOM grossers.

Lots of days over 10m

 

Valentines Day was its biggest day.

If I recall, Avatar never went above 30M.

Looking at it I don't see how sw8 can do below 700 million if ro will do near 550 million.

I'd argue that Rogue One was not done with little effort. With all the reshoots and rewrites and all that. Seems the exact opposite of little effort.

I mean after 250M. You're right about Valentines Day though, I missed it. Wow, it was Day 58.

I can't believe you put a pig as avatar, but never put Katniss.
