BOM still doesn't have Thursdays numbers up, dafuq

 

They're there. I just looked. 

 

 

 

I think RO will do 80-85 low end and 90-95 high end. 

 

Good for Sing

 

Meh for Passangers

 

Bad for AC

 

Decent start for WH?

It is performing well here so far. I think it should do around 150M or so OS.

250-270m might be enough for it to be barely profitable. Marketing seemed big though.

I kinda doubt it, but at least it likely wouldn't be a massive bomb.

No matter what passengers end up doing it's going to be way less than what I'm sure Sony was hoping for. It's definitely a movie that got killed by the critics and that's unfortunate.

If Christmas is on a Sunday why wouldn't most workers in he Usa get the 26th of.

 

That is how holidays work here in canada if it falls on a weekend.

 

Stores are open but banks and corporations are closed.

 

Here in canada I don't go back till the 28th lol.

Most professionals (office workers) will have Monday off. Although I'm on vacation this week, we also had our floating holiday today (so I didn't need to use a full week of PTO).

That 130m 4-day prediction from DL is hilarious, maybe 650m+ if that happened.

At least Pratt has GOTG Vol 2. coming up and hopefully Lawrence's upcoming projects will be decent. I know I'm seeing them.

I mean it probably needs 300+ to break even, but who knows.

I naively thought that at least critics would have least noted that Sony tried to do an original movie, sold on its cast, just like the old days, but no, it seems they gleefullly trashed the movie for reasons that escape me, because hey why not?, no matter how bad the movie supposedly is.

Naive me.

 

I ll be very interested to read interviews about  people involved with the movie and how they felt about its reception .

If they don't like the movie, why should they care whether it's original or adapted?

[MovieMan89]

Ok, don't get me wrong, I'm the last one who will try to deny the importance of RT in 2016. However, some of you may be going a bit too far trying to put it all on them. It had two big stars and what I thought was an effective trailer. But it obviously must not have had the appeal it seemed like it would in the end. Furthermore, the RT audience and IMDB scores are pretty weak, so I don't know if it's just critics disliking it. We'll see what legs are like.

I know, it s not a good argument but still, adaptations of candy bars  are looming.

 

And there is an Excel.doc at Universal Headquarters about the Fast & Furious calendar up until 2040.

 

 

[MovieMan89]

I wonder if some of Passengers problem was that the trailer almost sold it as a rom-com in space with some drama tossed in at the end? And we know the current state of rom-coms...

You should all go see Monster Trucks, shit was pretty dope.

I don't think the marketing did it any favors either. It's as if they couldn't decide who to market it to. Sci-fi/action fans or romantic drama fans. Also, I think they relied a little too much on "Hey look, it's two of the hottest actors on earth in a movie together!" "Go see it!" Lol

 

I thought it looked decent enough but I can wait and see it later.

I have no idea whether the movie is good or not, but as I repeatedly said when they came out, the trailers weren't appealing at all.
