She was so great in When Harry Met Sally. I wish Hollywood has made better use of her comedic talents.

Rogue One is the 400th movie ever to repeat the #1 spot at the Weekend Box Office

[Dark 33Legend of the Sith]

Anyone have a funny feeling Rogue One could do something stupid good like 24 million plus today?  I know that is a long shot, especially after the big increase in Monday. 

With the strange circumstances of Carrie, discount Tuesday, and a buzz that seems to be more intense than 24 hours ago?

 

Also, the coverage on this has been huge. She has been on the front page of Fox News, Cnn, abc news, drudge, huff po all day. I checked all of them through out the day and it's the unanimous top story. I don't know if it could give a jolt as early as tonight but it seems to be THE story right now as it should.

It's certainly possible. It's a little hard to compare most of these movies to the post-Christmas Tuesdays of 2005/2011, since Discount Tuesdays have exploded since then. Fwiw, Ghost Protocol fell 33.6% and Game of Shadows fell 32.4%, which would give Rogue One a Monday in the $21.3m-$21.7m range, so a number a little higher than that wouldn't be out of the question. 

Carrie won't affect box office today as much, I don't think, but tomorrow could potentially see a much softer drop than we were expecting.

25% drop is reasonable when you look at the 2011 movies and factor in stronger Discount Tuesday.

Cannot just factor in the adult action films. It hasn't been following their pattern in recent days. Chipmunks and Tintin both had small drops on this Tuesday. I think a hybrid of Sherlock/MI4/Chipmunks/Tintin is what we should expect.

So maybe 25 plus would be the crazy good scenario. That would be nuts after such a strong Monday bump.

Something like $60m this weekend, $25m next weekend, $20m four-day the week after? I don't see Bye Bye Man, Monster Trucks or Sleepless hitting above $15m, so 5 in a row could happen too. 

Split and/or XxX (xXx? XXX? xxx?) will knock it out for sure, though.

So -33.6%, -32.4%, -1.9%, -14.5%. Average it out and that's a 20.6% drop for Rogue One, which gets it to $25.5m. 

Not saying we should expect $25m+ or be disappointed if it doesn't hit that, but it's certainly within the realm of possibility, especially with Discount Tuesday in the mix.

Very good movie written by Carrie Fisher, based on her autobiographical novel: http://www.rollingstone.com/movies/reviews/postcards-from-the-edge-19900912

Yeah, 25% drop to $24m seems pretty reasonable.

Right. Never mind, then. Patriot's Day could definitely do $20m+ in a starved market.

Bought my tickets for round 2 Thursday at 7:40 PM

 

May the force be with us

Theaters were jammed today. Everything was selling out.

[filmlover]

Saw both Passengers and Sing tonight and both were sold out in 250-seat theaters. Rogue One also had plenty of sellouts too. Thinking the drops will be rather slim today.
