That would be rough for Underworld. Another franchise that has run its course and it's time to move on.

Bad weather especially in the southeast. Still, I was expecting better Friday increases.

Blood Wars only has a 35m budget and should do something like 80-90m WW(maybe more depending on OS) which will probably be good enough for them to make another one at some point. 

strait to vod releases, those numbers seem similar to now dead Scream franchise

[filmlover]

What's everyone expecting from next weekend's releases? There's 5 of them and yet Patriots Day is the only one that seems to have any kind of a pulse.

[dxmatrixdt]

In the derby I have Sing at 26 and Rogue One at 25.   I hope R1 wins though....  4 weekends!  wow.   That is really really hard to do.  I dont care what Star Wars movie you are.  Revenge of the Sith barely made it at #1 in week #2.  and in todays current marketplace it is challenging.  btw, Mockingjay 2 was #1 4 weeks in a row.  anyway, who knows, maybe Sing will overtake it or that A+ for Hidden Figures will propel it upward

[dxmatrixdt]

wtf @ that Fences number.  It is always so wierd when you see the results come in and things just go opposite. 

9.) Fences (PAR) 2,368 theaters (+67) /$1.3M (-62%) Fri/3-day:$4.4M (-56%)/Total:$40.4M/Wk 4

I loved the movie but it's way too stagey to connect with a mass audience. This doesn't surprise me.

I saw it and I was thinking the same thing too about how it would translate for box office while i was watching.  But then it increased well last weekend after weaker weekdays than those to compare it too.  6M seemed in play.  Oh well, i guess it is at 40m total right now.  Pretty good for Denzel niche.

These weekend numbers are definitely not what I was expecting.

 

I mean, $23.6M for Rogue One? I had it pegged for, or near, $30M. And that was a pretty fair estimate, nothing too optimistic. Hidden Figures also looks like it won't pull in as much as I thought, given the buzz. In fact, everything looks a bit low, as has already been discussed.

This just means better holds for everything MLK weekend.

HF is still a great number considering it was only tracking in the high teens. In fact, DL had it at $7-7.5m this past afternoon.

 

While I wanted it to open like $30M, $7.8M Friday is still great considering the bad weather it had to face.

assuming theater counts do not get slaughtered to make room for new product next week.  (i hope Monster Trucks does not require 2 screens per theater)

[JB33]

These last couple weekdays + this projected weekend for R1 are likely really going to throw it off the pace it was on. For instance, its 3rd weekend gross ranks 5th highest all time. The current 4th weekend projected gross would rank 13th.

Oh, absolutely. I just honestly thought it would do even better. But that number is still fantastic and the movie is obviously a hit. It'll hold well too. A good friend of mine, her mom isn't a big movie person at all and she's so hard to please in that respect, but she knew early on she really wanted to see Hidden Figures. It's a crowd pleaser.

[dxmatrixdt]

OH PLEASE VOTE AND PLAY!

 

 

[The Dark Shape]

I don't understand why Rogue One's number is shocking.  A 52% drop is basically identical to The Force Awakens' 53% post-New Years week drop last year.

[Truckasaurus]

Nope, I don't like these numbers. Give me new ones, please.
