Don't worry, they'll be bombing again after these movies pass. They just got lucky that they had multiple prestige/easy sell projects for the end of the year.

terrestrial Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Quote It will presumably spend the weekend leapfrogging over the likes of Suicide Squad ($745m), Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them ($747m) and possibly (but not certainly) Deadpool ($783m). about SW R1 out of the Forbes link above 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of the week will drop 65-70% (let's assume its 50M) for 25M. The grand total is at 205M. .........Fuck, this is going to beat Moana. Yeah, that's depressing.

I'm no expert on this though, haven't looked at trends 63-65M, it should be relatively flat from 2nd weekend. 23 20 22 65M 3rd weekend, 3rd best behind SW7 and Avatar. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumanji's also gonna make a killing next Christmas too. Eh, I don't think Jumanji's gonna do that well. At least I'm a bit more pessimistic about the film's box office, unless it turns out better than expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, I guess I'm being pretty conservative. I was thinking something like 22-18-16 for 56 but even looking at it now it does seem pretty low. 22-20-18 for 60 might be the low end, actually. Either way, like you said, it's poised to have the 3rd best third weekend of all time. A friend and I will be adding to Sunday's gross!

NCsoft Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 48 minutes ago, JB33 said: Crazy how far the Pirates of the Caribbean and Transformers franchises have fallen. Years ago they would have been among the most anticipated but they both suffered from sub-par 4th movies. However, like said 4th movies, overseas gross will prop the 5th entries up in 2017. Not likely, I think a significant drop for both is coming in terms of WW gross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barring Fantastic Beasts as well, which had a better hold than Moana. Very good legs for FB these last days.

terrestrial Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 It's also about the VOD time span change discussions Quote Capturing the lucrative millennial demographic continues to be a frustration for studio executives. While they can be counted on showing up during the opening weekend of a Star Wars or comic-book movie (i.e. close to half of Deadpool (47%), Suicide Squad (48%) and Rogue One’s (45%) opening night crowds were comprised of 18-34 year olds), they’re a group that decides quickly on social their opinion about a movie, and when coupled with film review aggregator site ratings (like Rotten Tomatoes) can impact a pic’s financial fate. Overall, outside of tentpoles, they’re a difficult demo to pull into the theater, and away from YouTube and Netflix. Per the MPAA’s most recent annual report, 18-24 frequent moviegoers fell 34% since 2012 from 8.7M to 5.7M in 2015, while the 25-39 age group declined 25%, falling from 9.9M to 7.4M over the same time frame. http://deadline.com/2016/12/highest-grossing-movie-studios-2016-us-box-office-1201876405/?utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=dlvr.it 2016 DOMESTIC B.O.

Eevin Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Solid holds for Rogue One and Sing. For Rogue, we could see something like a $17m Thursday, $21m Friday, $18m Saturday, $21m Sunday, which would give it ~$60m for the weekend and ~$435m through Sunday. Possibly $450m+ through Monday as well. No idea how to compare Sing, but it's worth noting that Tintin had a similar second-Wednesday drop and had an 11x multiplier off said day, which would put Sing at $280.3m for its final tally. Tintin was a leggy monster that Sing likely won't replicate, but it's worth noting that a similar range is on the table. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
