Baby Driver has been such a tough one to crack comp-wise. Now You See Me feels the most appropriate, but even then I sense that had more immediate appeal (despite its legs) than what I think will be a slow burn run for BD.

 

Hopefully.

 

We've had plenty of surprises this year so far, there's always room for more.  It will of course have to come from legs though.

 

I'm thinking it has a nice little run.

The Beguiled is expected to go into 550 theaters next weekend. Feel like Focus is being too fast there.

[eXtacy]

The July releases seem to be pretty stacked if early critical reactions are to believed. I really have not seen many films this year but will probably see up to 6 this coming month

Hate to break it to ya man, but it's opening all over South Florida next weekend. We always get specialty releases around here while they are still playing in less 100 theaters, yo.

Pulse is finally back up:

 

1. Transformers

2. WW

3. Cars

4. Transformers 3D

5. 47 Meters Down

 

DM3 and SMH are at 2 tickets per minute while BD is at 1 per minute.

5. Transformers 3D

 

SMH is selling 4 tickets per minute, DM3 3 tickets per minute, and Baby Driver 2 tickets per minute. I only saw The House pop up once in a 5 minute stretch.

Thinking 35M for Baby Driver for the 5-day with potential for more (kingsman numbers at the highest?) Buzz is high, and pre-sales seem strong.

If Baby driver breaks out it can thank a lackluster June outside of Wonder Woman.

Just give me 25 mln+ opening week-end for Edgar Wright, God Of Box-Office! That's only thing what I'm asking now.

[MCKillswitch123]

Is BD still half of Chips now?

Baby Driver Presales Tuesday

1st local (1 screen, 2 showings, 60 seats) 11/120 sold

2nd local (1 screen, 2 showings, 175 seats) 23/350 sold

Mall (1 screen, 2 showings, 300 seats) 23/600 sold

 

Tuesday presales are so tough to guesstimate from, but this isn't great, but it's also not catastrophic...I'll try to update tomorrow to see where it goes...

I have this weird hunch that's telling me that Spider-man is going to do gangbusters next weekend. I'm feeling $120M+ for it.
