?? will do over $100M domestic due to there being nothing in August ?.

Maybe, I expect it to fall short similar to Sausage Party

Emoji movie will do 300M WW or so.

Diary of the Wimpy Kid probably cost $15-20m so it doesn't need to make huge grosses to be profitable. 

 

Emojimovie could either do decently or it'll sink Sony Pictures Animation.

1) True, but it depends on if the downward decline of the Wimpy Kid franchise

 

1	1	Diary of a Wimpy Kid	Fox	$64,003,625	3,083	$22,126,166	3,077	3/19/10
2	2	Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules	Fox	$52,698,535	3,169	$23,751,502	3,167	3/25/11
3	3	Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days	Fox	$49,008,662	3,401	$14,623,599	3,391	8/3/12

 

It might make like 40-45m, and get more gravy via OS markets

 

2) Again, depends on the cost

When's the last time a studio released two movies wide on the same day?

Nope, the 160 minute runtime was just a rumor.

That makes more sense but is also slightly disappointing

I think SPA is on thin ice, they are churning out films which admitfully do include hybrids but I think oversaturation of their films could hurt them in the long run.

SPA was never a household name anyway, I think people won't care.

PANDA PANDA PANDA PANDA @Beauty and The Panda Does the trailer number have an effect on your model?

 

I'd have to set another excel sheet up to look at some of the new trailers.

Which studio is doing that now? I haven't heard.

I would love to see a long FF 

 

Just my opinion

I can't imagine the marketing costs are big for the Wimpy Kid films, I imagine they only need $40-50m WW to break even. I imagine it's the sort of film which does decently on home entertainment, streaming and television.

April looks so empty besides F8 of furious. Don't understand why Life or Power Rangers or something never moves to an empty spot there

[That One Girl]

The Long Haul will probably make like 20M domestic but it'll still be a success.  The films are cheap to make.

Wait, there are people on this forum who don't know BKB yet? Oh boy, you guys better learn to use that ignore button when his ban is off.

 

He's banned again? I guess that shouldn't be a surprise.

It has a new cast as well so I imagine they've spent less on this one than they did on the last Wimpy Kid film.

lol he's never bothered me that much but I stay out of the Marvel/DC and Politics threads now...which I'm sure is why he was banned. I know he's said some really stupid stuff in the past though. Feels like he's the stuff of legend on here (and not in a good way).

[somebody85]

I still think it was funny that BKB was banned the weekend of the original Avengers so he didn't get to experience the insanity. But if I remember he was here for the letdown of AOU and blamed the fight for everything. I forgot about that.

Edit: Both BKB and Cochofles are banned? I hadn't visited for a few months up until recently. Makes sense why the super hero wars are quieter around here.

Don't forget Going in Style 

 

[Boxofficerules]

I think Kong should have moved to August. Power Rangers should have moved to late April and Life or Chips should have taken Kongs spot and he other stays put.
