Apes actually has a higher actual than the estimate. YAY!!! GT is off by about 400K and AB by a couple of hundred thousand. Nothing too massive, I don't think.

 

They were already estimated to drop 25%, so it's probably more like 30% with actuals.

Glad WAR did not budge from a 50% drop. Low 40s drop next weekend would be good.

But Kamloops is straight up one of the hottest places in the country during the summer. And yea, I'm getting hit with the heat wave this week as well

 

Also, White Rock is such a nice place! I was born in North Van but only lived there till I was 7

True. Not the best way to make my point lol.

 

Yeah White Rock is nice. I miss it. It's really grown, though, to the point where it's not some quaint town anymore.

 

Where did you move after North Van, if you don't mind me asking?

How much would you "guesstimate" that it has left in its run? Maybe 25-30 million?

25-30 sounds right. Hopefully the higher end. 

 

This Mon-Thu could be around 5.6 (-45% down from last Mon-Thu of 10.2)

Next weekend could be 6.1 (-42% down from 3rd weekend of 10.5)

That gives 118.8 + 5.6 + 6.1 = 130.5 cume.

 

2.5-3x the 4th weekend (6.1) more will give 130.5 + 15.25-18.3 = 145.75-148.8

 

So 145-150 looks like a safe bet.

CARS3 3.6 away from 150 after a weekend of 0.956. Will need some Labor Day help, typically long late legs Disney gives it's animations to get there.

I wonder if Cars will survive for 5 weekends for LD to even make a difference. Normally Pixar movies have a decent theater count and a good weekend number when LD rolls around for an expansion to make sense which just isn't the case with Cars. DM3 will also most likely expand that weekend as well, in addition to Wonder Woman, Baby Driver and maybe even TF5.

 

Someone mentioned this on Reddit - the reason this summer box office seems particularly boring is that there is no second big box office run to follow. Every summer has 2 big box office runs post June which makes it interesting, 2014 was the last time that happened, but even that was somewhat salvaged by the GOTG-TMNT combo. In 2015 we had Jurassic World and Inside Out, in 2016 we had Dory, Pets and Suicide Squad. 2016 has had Wonder Woman and no second crazy run to keep us engaged.

Don't family movies do really really well in discount theaters? I'd imagine that's how Disney will push it to 150.

GOTg 2 I say was a decent run to follow. Also it was fun following movies like Pirates and DM3 overseas imo. But I get what you mean

And now we have proof savage reviews still do hurt...at least OW...

 

I will admit my girls, who have computers, actually told me the RT score and that was the big reason they didn't want to go...if you're over 8, you couldn't miss the articles and posts everywhere...

 

And as a parent, any animated movie I can miss (especially that I don't think I'll like), I do:)...I'm off the hook at least til Lego Ninjago for them (although girls may bug me for Justice League and/or Murder on the Orient Express - yes, somehow this is pinging the tween/teen female desire, so I hope this isn't R, b/c I haven't checked yet:)...

Cars can hit 150 even with just a normal dollar theater expansion. And Illumination movies have never expanded on Labor Day weekend, they're usually in wide release still by that point and DM3 won't be an exception.
