Disney/Pixar’s Cars 3 is also driving toward $7M today, but as of this minute is expected to come in under Wonder Woman in third with $23M, -57% for a running 10-day take of $97.7M by Sunday.

Lionsgate’s Codeblack Entertainment’s All Eyez on Me is expected to gross $2.7M today for a second weekend of $8M, -70% for a 10-day total of $40.8M.

that 2.7 for AEOM has to be a type cause films don't increase 150% on Fridays in the middle of summer. 1.7m is the more generous increase / number and a weekend closer to 6m and a 75%+ fall

I mean, my audience of like 15 people in 47 Meters Down was fine the other day! Considering everything I want to see next week is rated R, maybe I'll have better luck. It's just so incredibly frustrating. Like, I was bored by The Last Knight too, but that doesn't give me the right to use my phone ffs.

Notorious increased over 100% on its second Friday IIRC

Only during the trailers

Looks like deadline is using the same IM as last weekend for Wonder Woman with that. $26M estimate. Seems unlikely given the lack of father's day.

 

TF5 is tracking for a 5 day total under the Hangover 3, and that closed with less than $115M in total.

After these numbers is that Bumbleebee spinoff seriously still going to be a thing ? Steinfeld's better off without it anyway. 

 

Paramount is not going to give up on TF after one flop so the Bumblebee spinoff is actually a perfect way to see if they can still make some money with "smaller" (and hopefully better reviewed) movies.

Fantastic Friday number for TF5.

[Jonwo]

Transformers as a concept made sense to become a CG/live action and the first film while not great, did offer potential but with each film, they squandered any goodwill with the audience. If Paramount and Hasbro reboot it, I think they need to divorce themselves from the Bay style and go in a different direction.

I'm going to wait on a trailer for it but I think it has massive potential.

 

It's Sony and TBH their animated films is output is mixed at best. I don't expect The Star to be any different.

The whole bumblebee being geared towards kids thing kind pisses me off but oh well

[WrathOfHan]

Accurate portrayal of me during The Last Knight:

 

First hour-hour 15:  

The next 30 minutes: 

The final stretch:

HANGOVER III didn't have the benefit of full summer weekdays, though, so that definitely helps TF5 (that and the 5-day upcoming Fourth holiday). It's looking to be a very low domestic total regardless.

Well they did start out as toys and cartoons.

How dare a franchise based on toys made for 5-10 year-old boys make a movie geared towards kids?

Sadly TF5 is working with small numbers to begin with because the actual % increase from Thursday to Friday is pretty decent -way better than TF2 and in line with TF3 if I am remembering right @ about 55%. I mean 70% would have been about the best case scenario and it was highly unrealistic, but with 12.5 at least mid 30m is still on the table and a decent increase on Saturday could get it to 40m at the top.

But Father's Day deflated last Saturday, no? And WW has less competition this weekend.

Oh, and my theater heard my complaints about a disturbing lack of Dunkirk trailers, so they gave me 4

Yeah, a 3.71 multi in late June is too high, would be closer to 3.5
