Weekend Actuals (Page 150): Apes 56.3M | SMH 44.2M | DM3 19.4M | Baby 8.7M | Big Dick 7.5M | WW 6.8M | Wish Upon 5.5M | Tomatoes losing their power

[John Marston]

nice recovery for Apes. Still on track to be the lowest grossing of the trilogy though

[RichWS]

Based on a few anecdotes this week, some casual moviegoing friends all uttered some form of "Really? Another one?" when I told them I saw Spider-Man.

 

War looked too similar to Dawn. Nothing but wet Canadian forest.

[Fancyarcher]

Good increase for Apes. I could see holding quite well on Saturday as well.

War's true Friday is about $1.1 million less than Rise's true Friday in 2011.

Or you could say, if you don't have a superhero franchise, you're fucked 

 

Uh.... I think you missed the entire point of that post.

Anecdotally, when I told my doctor I saw Spider-Man, she brought up Wonder Woman and told me that some people she knew saw it twice.

Wonder Woman was coming off three poorly received DCEU films too.

Poorly received by critics but all the films had positive audience scores on all sites.

I think it's implied, because so were the spidey movies. And two of those 'poorly received' spidey films are fresh on RT

You can argue that SS had positive WOM from the GA. But MOS was certainly mixed and BvS was outright toxic.

TF5 - taking down more people than the plague, and probably equally not good for you.

Currently on a train to Chicago just to see A GHOST STORY with my roommate. Be jealous @Ethan Hunt and everyone else

Even when you look into RT, SM3, ASM1, and ASM2 all had better audience reception than MOS, BVS, and SS.

There's no fatigue (as in rejection) but there's no growth. I think that the genre peaked with TA as far as the boxoffice goes and eevrything else will make less, no matter how much critics praise movies or social media buzzes about them.

Oh, there's definitely capacity for growth. Wonder Woman hitting $400mil alone shows that. There just needs to be good franchise management.
