Don't ignore the weekdays. It grossed over $5m higher on weekdays than Interstellar. 

True story. 

 

But folks love panic and bad news, so....

[Mojoguy]

Cancel Wonder Woman 2.

I heard they are going to turn Wonder Woman into Batman's arm candy because WB doesn't know what to do her anymore. Sad.

Yeah 10 day gross / OW is more accurate than just 2nd weekend drop.

96.93/47.51 = 2.04x for Interstellar**

101.32/50.51 = 2.01x for Dunkrirk

Both are the same even though the 2nd weekend drops are 40% vs 47%

 

**Interstellar did 2.15 on Wed+Thu not counted in OW else Dunkirk's 10-day multiplier would have been better cause Interstellar's OW would have gone up and I have included that 2.15 in the 10-day cume nevertheless.

But seriously, Sunday drops will now be bigger because we are approaching August now.

That's just the way it is!

For me, WW must stay close to Spider-man's numbers for this week. After this week, Spider-man's numbers collapsed because of the theater count. I took a look at the numbers on BOM. For some reason, BOM does not have the last two weeks of July for Spider-Man. 

 

I guess whoever ever said that GOT has an impact on the box office may have been right. 

 

It is sort of ironic that with all the disappointment at Apes' numbers, it is the only movie in the top ten to have survived Sunday without a drop, but actually increased from estimates.

RT Watch Update:

 

Atomic Blonde ends up the thirteenth wide-release film of the summer that achieves “Certified Fresh”.

 

I wasn’t sure if Transformers could be “dethroned” as the worst reviewed film of the summer, but The Emoji Movie has easily done so.

 

So far this summer, we have 15 “Fresh” vs 16 “Rotten” films - almost identical to the 50/50 breakdown of last summer. The upside of this summer is that we have more very “cream of the crop” films (four 8+ rating films vs only one total last summer). The downside is that we have a slew of stinkers as well.

 

According to BOM, there are 15 more wide-release films of the summer (opening in August): 

• The Dark Tower
• Kidnap
• Detroit (expanding wide)
• Annabelle: Creation
• The Glass Castle
• The Nut Job 2: Nutty by Nature
• The Adventurer’s 
• The Hitman’s Bodyguard
• Logan Lucy
• All Saints
• Birth of the Dragon
• Crown Heights
• A Gentleman
• Leap!
• Tulip Fever

Annabelle: Creation is looking like it could end up being one of the better reviewed films of the summer, as with 13 reviews in, it sits at 100% with an 8.2 average rating. However, this is a small sample of reviews for now.

 

Once Detroit expands, and I add it to the list, it will also be one of the better reviewed films of the summer, as it sits at 95% (with a 7.9 average rating) with 61 reviews.

 

It remains to be seen if we’ll have any other jewels, in terms of critical reception, in the last month of the summer season of movies.

Those sunday drops are horrendous

TRIVIA

 

Dunkirk's ow to 10-day cume multiplier is better than WONDR's despite bigger 2nd weekend drop

 

206.343/103.251 = 1.998x

101.317/50.513 = 2.006x

[MCKillswitch123]

So, EVERYTHING dropped baaad on Sunday, it seems.

 

....it's kinda ironic that the only movie that went up on estimates was War For The Planet Of The Apes  Karma really is a bitch, especially against us BOT'ers who mocked its box office run or felt pity for it (which we - or most of us - all agreed that the movie was sadly better than it), and now it turns out to be the only movie over estimate in this disastrous Sunday for movies. Granted, still doesn't change the fact that yet another 50% drop is piss, but, like I said before, it is pretty much echoing SMH's 1st weekends - 60%+ and 50% - and now it may finally show good legs. Although... w/Dunkirk taking away IMAX and adult audiences, maybe not after all.

If it was, it had absolutely nothing to indicate it. Can't really blame anyone for not taking sarcasm cues in non-spoken/written words on the internet.

The w/e after father's day w/e was the one, which pushed wondy ahead of many comps. 

Dunkrik is in good shape seeing this. Hoping for strong weekdays again.

Needs 3x from this weekend to get to $169,375,500. I think with summer weekdays it's doable but it's gonna be on the nose. Too bad $169,380,000 seems to be out of reach now.

This all depend on three theaters. Maybe fox will fudge it. Or if it stays until kingsman then double features will help it.

I consider Interstellar's opening to be $49.66 million. The $2m of Wednesday/Thursday "film only" previews still would have seen the movie on the weekend if necessary.
