cozmeesah Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Oh wow. Wasn't expecting J2 to come that close to SH and TV. Let's see how much these #'s hold in actuals tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 Journey will hold for sure. It's a holiday in the US and in two provinces in Canada. So kids movies will do well today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 Impressive numbes for the top 3, good enough to offset the disappointing performances of the new releasesYou think 17.5 mill is disappointing for TMW? Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forg Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) ^ On second thought, that's a fairly decent number for This Means War and if it holds in the actuals then we have an all top 20+ mil earners top 5. It's not a big disappointment but somewhat underwhelming that it can't beat the three holdovers but given the awful reviews, this is a solid OW Edited February 20, 2012 by forg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 You think 17.5 mill is disappointing for TMW? Why?that is actually in the same ballpark as movies like Knight and Day and The Tourist which had much bigger starpower so it is really not that bad actually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 Agreed. 17.5 mill is quite good and with the Monday number putting it over 20, it has a good chance of hitting 50 mill. Reese is not that much of a draw outside of her element and the two leads are completely unproven, so all things considered, its a good opening.

stripe Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Very good numbers for the holdovers, good for TMW and sadly bad for Nic Cage. Poor man... He does not deserve all that hate. Overall, 127M for the top 5 is very good. More or less the same as 2009, which had the Valentines Day push. 2012 continues surprisingly strong.

Chrestomanci Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) From that number for The Vow, one would have to guess that they underestimated the Sunday drop, since otherwise they're predicting a drop of nearly 57% on Monday and I can't see any reason for it to fall that hard. No movie fell over 50% on President's Day last year and the only reason movies dropped so hard on President's Day in 2010 was that it was the day after Valentine's Day.
