miketheavenger Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 August may not have a SS/GotG-level blockbuster this year, but it should still be exciting. Many movies will probably be at least medium-sized hits plus there's gonna be a couple strong July holdovers. IMO August this year is looking better than 2015. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brainbug Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I think Annabelle will surprise many. I can see it hitting 30M for the OW. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL yeah pretty much the same. I also use the cinemark app, which will give away free small popcorn or drink if we have it turn on silent mode during the movie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Knight: 40 The Blind Side: 45 Spider-Man (2002): 45 Hunger game Catching fire: 45 Look like it will need to get over 45 days to get into special top 5 category. Titanic: 101 (lol) I've checked some of the leggier movies at mojo and it seems like quite a few went beyond 50 straight days above $1m: Titanic, Avatar, ET, Phantom menace, Frozen, Finding Nemo, Shrek 2, Avengers (not sure if it's all). I think it needs to surpass Nemo (59 days) to enter the Top 5 and that's not happening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAJK Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 August looks kinda exciting just because literally everything is a wildcard. No matter what people say, I'm having a hard time predicting Dark tower, Detroit, Annabelle, Hitman's Bodyguard etc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guessing that Scots above and beyond stanning for WW has made him some friends at WB/DC and they are feeding him advanced information as a thank you. Both Gal and Geoff Johns are linking to him on twitter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chances are I'd be the only one there and I have the Blu-Rays at home so not really worth it. Why can't my theater ever do anything like the Guardians Double Feature that'll get more of an audience ? They did the Mockingjay double feature and there was a plenty decent number of fangirls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grim22 Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Was looking at Apes opening weekends and realized that in the Summer of 2001 Mummy Returns, Planet of the Apes and Rush Hour 2 all came within 4M of the OW record in one summer. POTA had awful legs though, barely making 2.5x in 2001. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LonePirate Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Today's magic number is $14,539,573. Let's see if WW can reduce that by another $1M or so by tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Gal and Geoff Johns are linking to him on twitter. Before Gal and Geoff, Patty retweeted him a few times and also gave him an interview. Gal linked to him on twitter just once so far, 2 or 3 days ago, and it was after Patty tweeted his article and added a mention of Gal. He started his last few articles about WW saying there's traffic for these pieces and that people want to read them, so he keeps writing them. I enjoy reading them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it's. sometimes we tend to forget and take for granted the freedom we have and live in such a great country that we become spoil and gets too carry away. Freedom is good but it can become scary ..... especially when the ball is way in left field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
