I'm not quite sure if there have been any recent comedies about bad critics

[Barnack]

With that Cinemascore THB should do about 3.3 legs, RT has some small correlation with legs (more than OW) but not by that much.

Which comedy with an RT score like that opened to over $20M? 

 

Its not about what the critics think. Its about what the audiences think. And audiences like it.

Bad moms had a 58% RT score and some of the best recent legs, comedy tend to be really trailers dependent and that trailer scored huge.

[Kingp0va]

58% is mixed, 39% is bad, but anyway I guess you're righyt, the imdb score is pretty good, so blake better get some coins

You mean 100m I imagine ? I don't think so, quoting a part of the first message:

 

The Hitman's Bodyguard has been my stan of choice ever since I saw the trailer (besides War For The Planet Of The Apes). And I'm calling it for a 90M+ DOM total. You may be asking, "why not 100M?", well, because I wanna shoot fireworks and not feel disappointed that it didn't reach a higher mark. If it does make 100M, you can tell me to kick myself in the balls all you want, but I'll see it as a great topping already.

I recognize the almost zero chances of this club becoming reality, but no, the target was never 100M.

THB on 39.6 after a 10.05 weekend.

 

If this Mon-Thu shows a 45% drop from last Mon-Thu then it will make 4.5 more for 39.6 + 4.5 = 44.1 cume

 

The 4-day LD weekend should stay flat (10% drop/bump) from 10.05, so 44.1 + 9-11 = 53-55 cume.

 

Then 2x the 4-day is the most it should do imo. So 53-55 + 18-22 = 71-77 dom.

 

Bad in context of the club but strong performance otherwise. The prod budget is only 30.

 

As far as legs go 71-77 dom will give it a 3.3-3.6x multiplier which is also very good.

Looking at let's be cops legs:

It does seem to soon to make it officially dead. Let's be cops made 56m after the Sunday (17th august) of is first weekend and that opened a Tuesday night, THB opened the regular Thursday and need to do 68.4m (122%).

 

Considered that is sunday was 108% the size of let's be cops, it is very unlikely but possible.

Since is first monday

BodyGuard: 21.247m (total of 42.63)

Let's be cops during the same period (first monday to tuesday of week 2): 21.166m

 

Bit lower than that 108% of is Sunday, very comparable.

 

So if it continue to do exactly like Let's be cops, it would finish around 77m for an excellent 3.6x multiplier, would expect the total to be around 77m +/- 5%

It's Saturday hold this weekend was amazing! It increased big time, and was close to its last weekend number $10.2 million. So a total around $80 million seems doable, Lionsgate is enjoying some success with the film either way.
