WrathOfHan Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 The 2D POTC is ending with 106/124 and 3D with 45/78 at my theater. Not bad considering the former is basically the front row and wheelchairs remaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nova Posted May 25, 2017 Author Share Posted May 25, 2017 7 minutes ago, filmlover said: We should give Baywatch this: whatever it ends up with, it'll be entirely thanks to Dwayne Johnson. With Efron and anyone else in The Rock's place, it would likely be looking at CHiPs numbers at best. In Efron's defense, he's way more popular than Dax Sheppard and is coming off of The Neighbors success. Dirty Grandpa didn't too bad either especially given the reviews it got. Depending on how much Baywatch does make, I don't think you can say that it's all Dwayne Johnson even though there is no question about it that's he's the bigger star and this is his show. But then the question is does Efron even sign up for this without Johnson/does this get made without Johnson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its sequel last year dropped by nearly 2/3 from its predecessor and has also headlined a 2K+ theater/studio release that made sub-$5M in total (We Are Your Friends) since then.

That One Girl Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Baywatch was bad as fuck. Don't waste your time. Well unless you want to watch Daddario and Rohrbach being sexy as fuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it was still considered a success, no? Especially considering that it wasn't even that good. Also don't forget that comedy film he was in last summer. It didn't do that bad either. Regardless, my whole point in all of it was that I really don't think Baywatch would be another Chips because I don't consider Zac Efron and Dax Sheppard to be on the same level. I think it could have still opened to like $18M for the 3-day with Efron and some other dude. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonwo Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 I'm glad Efron is doing The Greatest Showman as he needs to take a break from doing R rated comedies. It his first musical film in over a decade as well 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has sweaty men with rock hard abs and oiled down chicks with big tits running down the beach.. I thought Baumer mentioned this was the recipe for a successful Memorial Day Weekend movie??? I actually think this won't perform any better than the last TV show to hit the silver screen, that was CHIPS.. Chips previewed to $500K on a Thursday - Baywatch was 2.5 times that on a Wednesday...it's already performing much better... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeCee Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 I've reviewed my movie-going options this weekend. Escape from New York is firming up as the pick of the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 I think the fact places like Fandango aren't commenting on Pirates 5's sales in comparison to other movies (including the franchise's previous installments) is pretty telling of the kind of Memorial Day weekend that is in store. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still at least you didn't put in $160M for a certain film that audiences didn't like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
