Lmao, I didn't expect The Mummy to keep 2 screens at my theater  I'm assuming one goes on Wednesday for Transformers.

I imagine most theaters are moving it to medium to smaller auditoriums this weekend (especially with the influx of new releases).

It was already in an average one and the 4th smallest this week at my theater; now, it's losing a grand total of 2 seats in capacity

LA Times:

 

Cars 3: $60M

All Eyez on Me: $17-20M

Rough Night: $10-14M

47 Meters Down: $5M

Yikes at that Rough Night projection, although it really doesn't have much buzz and comedies are on a shit streak right now, so I guess it's not that surprising.

Didn't expect anything more than that for rough night

I think Disney would be happy with a $60m OW for Cars 3 considering Cars 2 wasn't well received and it would on par with Cars 1. Not bad for a franchise which is the black sheep of the Pixar family

[Arlborn]

I had been thinking Cars 3 would be lucky to hit 50m for the longest time but the last couple of days really changed perspectives it seems.

That would be great for Cars considering it is following Cars 2

[WrathOfHan]

Those LA Times predictions look pretty reasonable, though All Eyez on Me will probably hit mid-20's.

[babz06]

Cars and All Eyez on me on Pulse, #2 and #3 respectively. 

 

All Eyez On Me looks poised to crack 20m+ , there are lots Tupac fans and hip hop fans in general.

Nah, it should be higher and at least 20m

 

Sony really dropped the ball with this with so much potential there

 

The marketplace is hungry for a breakout, so I imagine Girls Trip is a "surprise" hit

This should be a good derby this week.  4 new openers.  If you have a hunch about 47 Meters Below, Rough Night, or All Eyez on Me, show it in the derby.  You might hit an outlier positive score!  http://derby.boxofficetheory.com/Predictions.aspx

No reviews for All Eyez on Me, The Book of Henry, and Rough Night still and they all start their first showings in less than 36 hours. Not an encouraging sign.

EC has seen All Eyez and Rough Night. He liked the former but said it's nowhere near SOC's quality, so reviews will probably be in the 50's on that. He's been saying RN is mediocre at best, and given the late embargo, it's probably landing in the 30's or 40's.

[That One Girl]

1. Wonder Woman

2. Cars 3

3. All Eyez

4. Captain underpants

5. Wonder Woman 3D

 

Pulse watch for 15 mins:

 

DM3 sold 15, 47 Meters Down sold 17, Book of Henry sold 4, SM:H sold 13, Transformers sold 13, Rough Night sold 20.

[filmlover]

I'm thinking Cars 3 will lean towards $60M for the weekend. Marketplace is ripe for an animated hit right about now.

47 Meters Down will open over ICAN with the way it's selling. Who'd have thought that a week ago?

Embargo just ended for Rough Night. Reviews seem to be alright, if unspectacular.

That's good all things considered. It probably isn't opening to 20M at this point, but I can see it doing 15/45 or so.

I think it could do high teens and finish with $60M now. Not a breakout but actually better than the norm for a dark comedy.

Wonder Woman: never forget. Lol
