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:)...

I'm pretty sure Emoji is going $65M-$75M domestic.

WB will make us wait forever Dunkirk, Wondr actuals. They always do...

Casual studio is casual.

Also @TwoMisfits is there an interest in your household about Ninjago?

The answer lies by solving the answer to this equation:

 

@That Floating Guy This is a illusion. There is no answer. I just know that this is related to non local time dependent convection theory. Don't know how. I know nobody cares but I am just proud that I reverse searched this.

From the younger boys - yes...the girls are undecided.  We have done every Lego movie so far, so it's a good bet we'll go, although we may split into dad/sons outing and girls/mom outing (for Murder on the Orient Express - please tell me that's not R, or there goes the 2nd movie they wanted this year for a mom/daughter outing:)...or more probably, mom handling both and dad staying home, since I do the movies:)...

Trying to predict the final top 15 of summer. The current chart is

 

1	Wonder Woman	WB	$395,443,706	4,165	$103,251,471	4,165	6/2	-
2	Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2	BV	$387,780,407	4,347	$146,510,104	4,347	5/5	-
3	Spider-Man: Homecoming	Sony	$278,356,805	4,348	$117,027,503	4,348	7/7	-
4	Despicable Me 3	Uni.	$230,425,800	4,535	$72,434,025	4,529	6/30	-
5	Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales	BV	$171,009,161	4,276	$62,983,253	4,276	5/26	-
6	Cars 3	BV	$146,442,093	4,256	$53,688,680	4,256	6/16	-
7	Transformers: The Last Knight	Par.	$128,799,479	4,132	$44,680,073	4,069	6/21	-
8	War for the Planet of the Apes	Fox	$118,687,629	4,100	$56,262,929	4,022	7/14	-
9	Dunkirk	WB	$102,836,220	3,748	$50,513,488	3,720	7/21	-
10	Baby Driver	TriS	$92,046,188	3,226	$20,553,320	3,226	6/28	-
11	The Mummy (2017)	Uni.	$79,529,695	4,035	$31,688,375	4,035	6/9	-
12	Alien: Covenant	Fox	$74,111,463	3,772	$36,160,621	3,761	5/19	-
13	Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie	Fox	$72,458,606	3,529	$23,851,539	3,434	6/2	-
14	Girls Trip	Uni.	$65,524,760	2,648	$31,201,920	2,591	7/21	-
15	Baywatch	Par.	$58,060,186	3,647	$18,503,871	3,647	5/25	7/27

Emoji should have enough to overtake Baywatch to get into the top 15, but I don't see it overhauling Captain Underpants anymore, not with that ridiculously frontloaded weekend, I am thinking it ends below a 3x. Assuming Emoji finishes at 70M, the next contenders through August are Dark Tower, Annabelle, Detroit and Hitman's Bodyguard. Dark Tower presales are bad, and I would wager an O/U 20M opening on the cards for it, which would put it below 70M, Detroit honestly looks too bleak and grim to appeal to a wide audience, it should do well for its budget though. Annabelle and Hitman's Bodyguard are the wildcards, I think Annebelle 2 will drop from the first movie but not sure of the magnitude of drop and Hitman's Bodyguard should do well but it does not have too much time left before Labor Day. Dunkirk should overhaul Pirates and Girls Trip should get to 130M+. So the top 15 will most likely be:

 

1. Wonder Woman

2. Guardians 2

3. SMH

4. DM3

5. Dunkirk

6. Pirates

7. Cars 3

8. Apes 

9. Girls Trip

10. TF5

11. Baby Driver

12. Mummy

13. Covfefe

14. Underpants

15. Emoji / Annabelle / Hitman

Thankfully, Homecoming fell just 0.2m from Sunday estimates. Great weekend for Homecoming, it'll be cruising $300m dom before the end 11-13 weekend, I believe.

I'd wait until 4:30.

Girls Trip remains the story. 2nd weekend did what many predicted for the OW. Hollywood... when will they realize this is where some truly huge profit margins lie. This cost nothing to make and will cruise past $100M. More diverse movies, idiots.
