I don't see any higher than $535M though. He's a troll. With very little box office knowledge. Comparing BvS first HOLIDAY monday to BaTB non holiday Monday shows how BO acumen he possesses. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PDC1987 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Beauty and the Beast is a family film and Monday was still a school day for most kids, spring breaks are scattered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 What the week looks like to me - 17 Tues 11.5 Wed 10.5 Thurs 23 Fri 36 Sat 27 Sun 86 mil weekend (-52%) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poseidon Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I think this is a perfectly fine number for BaTB. Saturday and Sunday showed the family appeal and so it plays like a family movie. I don't think this will have a 175% jump on friday, but it will be fine with around 85-90m over the weekend. Let's have a pessimistic look at things from here. 175m WE 50m WD 85m WE 27m WD 42m WE 14m WD That would already put it at 393m coming from a 43m weekend and with easter still to come. It's a tough task to not get to 500m from here I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 It's playing out like a family film. Still a great number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoxOfficeZ Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Isn't this a softer drop compared with Jungle Book? Seems fine for a shot at 500m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with the whole ”but its a family film!!!" thing, this ain’t making a whole lot more than 400. I know you've already been dragged to the moon and back for this, but that piece of shit movie's first Monday was a holiday, and I sincerely hope you're not implying that Beauty and the Beast is not going to have infinitely better legs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nova Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I don't see why BATB wouldn't hit $100M this weekend. It's a family film during a time when the majority of kids are back at school except for the few who have spring break this week. And it has very little competition especially from the new comers. Power Rangers will not be a threat to BATB. Life is a movie not aimed at BATB's target audience. And no one gives a crap about CHiPS from what I have observed. So why wouldn't BATB make $100M+ its second weekend especially when it's already shown us that it's not front loaded one bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just can't see it falling harder than 50% though. Every time I read PR I think of Pacific Rim. That's a prove how much I am awaiting that Power Rangers movie 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really need to stop with this Easter Monday is a holiday thing. It isn't a federal holiday and most schools are not out on Easter Monday. It's just the day after a holiday.

DisneyFanatic Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 $500m still very much in play - weekends are important for the legs given time of year and the demo. I think $475m might be more likely - but looking for something nearer $500m than $450m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Panda Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 If the second weekend is over 100m I'd say upper 500m range to 600m is possible. If 85m - 95m then it's probably headed for 500 - 550m total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW,i keep pushing these huge predictions but i woukd be totally fine with something like 450-475M DOM.The fact that a female-centric family film is doing bussiness that only the biggest male-led superhero films have made is crazy in itself.
