DUNKIRK WEEKEND THREAD | ABSOLUTELY NO SPOILERS | Official estimates Dunkirk 50.5M, GT 30.3M, SMH 22M, Apes 20.4M, Val 17M | Wonder Woman is the new summer champ with 389M total | Summer Sale is Live!

[YM!]

So can anyone feel how Homecoming can get to an $18M-$20M weekend

Boy seeing that Brad Pitt gif is not a good idea whilst working

It's literally the only thing people remember about Allied.

At least Valerian is one of DeHaan's better openings. I know it doesn't mean much given what type of films he usually does but gotta take a win when you can.

Is it true Nolan doesn't use 3D in his movies because he is jealous of James Cameron?

I Think That Projected Number for Apes is Too Low & Will Probably Come In At $23M Which Would Be a 59% Drop

I'm seeing Dunkirk in an hour.

Yup, it's one of Hollywood's biggest open secrets. Him and Tarantino get drunk every weekend on the Sunset Strip and bitch about him.

I'm probably going to be eating crow, I think they are purposefully being conservative and that Dunkirk will probably hit high 50's at least.

Can't. I wear regular glasses, and then I gotta put 3D glasses in front of my regular glasses and wearing two sets of glasses just doesn't work.

 

I double-stack the glasses all the time. Passive 3D glasses are usually better tho.

Yo im going in 20 minutes!!!

So, to summarize:

 

Dunkirk is looking at a Friday of $17M+ (Hollywood Reporter), >$20M (Variety) and $19.5-22M (Deadline).

 

Girls Trip is looking at $11M+ (Hollywood Reporter), $12M (Variety) and $12.5M (Deadline).

 

Valerian is looking at $7M (Hollywood Reporter) and $6M (Deadline), while Variety doesn’t give a Friday number.

 

Looking great for Dunkirk and Girls Trip, and weak for Valerian. It’s best case scenario is to leg it to $50+ million domestically and make hundreds of millions internationally.

 

Overall, it's pretty cool to see three original (or if not technically "original" in the purest sense of the word, original-feeling) movies opening. Its somewhat a shame the three of them had to all open on the same weekend, but I guess studios expect established properties to make big bucks and avoid those weekends/periods of the summer.

 

Peace,
Mike

I'm curious about this. I also wear 3D glasses over regular glasses and I've never had a problem. When you say it doesn't work, do you mean that it's too uncomfortable? Or do you not get a 3D effect?

 

It's uncomfortable on my face and the 3D just becomes a blur effect for 2 hours.
