that's a bit way down from initial estimated $6.5m.....

DL had it at $5.9M before it was risen to 6. That's still a strong number. It could've been a lot worse given the Edgar's films are mostly frontloaded.

A contract is often more a clear reminder of the exact term (outside when people are really willing to destroy relationship and ready to spend a fortune enforce them), in the business world contract are not respected all the time.

 

Now Imax listening to Nolan one of their biggest promoter make sense, a player like STX not able to walk out of is release make sense they are just distributing domestic and cannot release that movie domestic week after the rest of the world nor necessarily control the other distributor WW, a lot of this make sense for those player. 

 

WB making Dunkirk a summer release is maybe the one a bit strange.

 

This is actually one of the better posts regarding the Valerian release date / IMAX situation but no likes or replies, instead everyone is too busy repeating each other. Shame...

exactly, nothing great or bad, it's just there.  But that's not a bad thing.  Just shows it wasn't going to break out even with some law going around

YAAAAAAAAS THE BEGUILED WENT OVER 1M  

[ZeeSoh]

Is disney underestimating the friday increases of its movies? All of its movies have much lower friday increase than any of the other movies

Cars 3 was hit by direct competition and died, Guardians 2 and Pirates 5 lost more than 30% of theaters and a lot of screens which typically means much lower Friday increases.

It's wonderful. Although I would've liked it to be at $6.5, BD's Friday number was 75% above Scott Pilgrim and it could have been a lot worse. Keep in mind this is from the director that either had flops or barely hits.

Since DM3 predicts are all over the place, here's a chance to put your predictor hat on. One gold account up for grabs to whoever comes closest on the weekend number. Just quote this post with your predict and the closest person wins it on Monday.

Can we please stop with the Tomato Law meme? I don't even care whether it's accurate or not. It was funny at first, but it's really getting annoying now.

 

In the year of our Lord, 2017, the Tomato King is highly offended by your sacrilegious transgressions.

 

He therby decrees that the next 10 movies you stan for will hereby be flops as commanded by the Great Red One.

How do we know it wouldn't be getting Scott Pilgrim numbers with a rotten score?

It's not wonderful either.  No need to spin it.  It's not a shot at the movie and I am well aware of how Wright's film do.  I get people want to give it more than it is, but let's not act like it even broke people's expectations.  The movie what I hear is great and the run will be solid to good.  But let's not act like this is some big thing going on money wise.

 

Movie and quality wise I can say it's a big thing though

considering it's an edgar wright movie, baby driver's number is considered a breakout tbh

I can see about cars yes but that PoTC number is confusing to me. The Mummy lost more than 40% theatres this weekend which is far more than PoTC and all this week its been lower than pirates with lower PTA. So why did Mummy increase nearly 50% as opposed to only 17% for Pirates?

by that thinking then who's to say it wouldn't be getting this number it's getting with the RT score is had either.  It just proves nothing either way
