What a WONDERful Weekend | WW down only 16% on Sunday. 103M weekend. pg 226

Recommended Posts



4th Update, 11:40PM:  After weathering lackluster critical scores and OK fan responses with last year’s Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad, all is well and correct in the Warner Bros./DC universe as Wonder Woman is both a hit with critics (94% Certified Fresh Rotten Tomatoes) and audiences alike earning an A CinemaScore on top of her current $98Mopening.

 

Counterprogramming is also solid this weekend with DreamWorks Animation/20thCentury Fox’s handholder pic Captain Underpantsdrawing $25.1M, a great start considering that’s off a mid-$30M production cost before P&A

Obligatory Rotten Tomatoes post by Deadline

 



Four weeks ago, Wonder Woman arrived on tracking at $65M and just grew from there to $75M three weeks out, to $90M a few days before its opening. Not only is that evidence of WB’s marketing machine working effectively, but it’s also an example of what happens when Rotten Tomatoes works in a tentpole’s favor, especially as there’s a groundswell of great reviews days before a film opens.

 
 

 

Compare this to last weekend, when two movies, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales and Baywatch, which originally arrived on tracking a month out with great prospects, saw their B.O. projections dashed days before opening no thanks to the aggregator site’s sour scores. Even though both titles earned decent respective CinemaScores of A- and B+, moviegoers relied instead on Rotten Tomatoes in determining whether to watch those movies or not.

I somewhat bought into forum hype and thought 100m OW was a given, but solid numbers nonetheless. I guess 300m is a reasonable goal now?

 

Given next week's Mummy movie probably isn't stiff (so to speak) competition, plus the (rare?) alignment of critics and audiences, should see a better than usual drop next weekend.

Depends on what you mean by "reasonable". It's possible for sure, but X3 multi for comic book movies don't come easy at all.
