WEEKEND THREAD! FRI #s: Lego: 8M: 50SD: 6.6M: GW: 5.8: JW2: 4.1 (pg 8)

Yessss LBM!

 

lol Cure for Wellness

That seems like a great hold for 50SD.  I thought the first was borderline unwatchable but still, these obviously have some staying power and there's no denying it.  If that number holds 130+ would be a strong likelihood.

[RyneOh1040]

Also, all these quiet weekends really just give me more reason to think BATB is going to be an absolute MONSTER.  Logan getting glowing reviews might get us the first 100 OW of the year, but Beauty is essentially a four quardrant film that 1. has been highly anticipated since we saw the first number of views for the trailer, 2. has been aggressively marketed by Disney in the way that only they can and 3. is coming at the time of a family film/event film drought.  I've thought New Moon's OW was the target for a while but I'm starting to think 150-160 is well within reach.

If Wolverine at the height of his popularity didn't make it to a 100 million opening weekend I don't see how Logan is going to either. But then again who thought Deadpool what open as high as it did. So I guess anything can happen.

LEGO Batman on its way to $175-205 million DOM.

 

50 Shades held better than expected, so $125 million DOM looks likely.

 

Tough to see John Wick 2 miss $100 million DOM, but $80-90 million is still excellent. 

 

Split is having some monster legs. It might top The Conjuring's multi. 

 

Everything held as well as expected (Dog, Hidden Figures, LLL, Lion). New releases seem to be non-starters.

LB can reach $200M although not likely

I'm curious how Split will hold next weekend with Get Out. Both are Universal releases, and Split has been having insane legs so far.

Anyone else seeing Get Out doing over $20M OW?

20M is pretty much locked. 

[Jayhawk the Hutt]

Seeing Get Out on Monday night, so excited.

[filmlover]

I think Logan could pull an $80M. Reviews are looking to be really strong and the fact it's Jackman's swan song in the role should be enticing to many.

[Scubasteve716]

Did Dane Dehaan get a new agent? He used to be in really good projects and now he's just in pure shit 

[baumer]

When has Dane Dehaan ever been relevant?

Dane will always be relevant on BOT  

[Jay Beezy]

The big reason for the massive drop for the first 50 Shades:

 

First film opened on Valentine's Day weekend which was also President's Day weekend that year, giving it a superinflated Saturday number on V-Day and an inflated Sunday number.

Yes! With a 30% drop LB reaches $25M, hell it could stay in the double digits until BATB for the weekends.

 

 

It's not gonna drop so softly on a post-holiday weekend. Should be happy if it gets to $20m.

It'll already have reached that 3x multiplier. Doesn't matter how it holds.

Assuming it has the same drop as TLM of course.

Why would it hold better?
