This is an excellent movie, it's ashamed Soderbergh decided to hind LL from most of the public just to prove a point.

The inept marketing is focus on low populated areas and the box office is showing this.

I wonder what he'll do with his horror movie next year

I know. I'm gonna catch it tomorrow during a study break with a group of friends. 

 

I mentioned in this thread how the marketing for this film (specifically just focusing on rural areas) really really let it down. I'm hoping it catches on though via WOM.

Luckily Inhumans is coming up to make sure no one has any issues with what their #1 cinematic experience of the year will be  

SLAY MEDUSA ! Wonder Woman who ?

I'm expecting sub-40 drops for both THB and LL next weekend, so both should be able to hit a 3x. How much higher they go depends on the September competition.

Collider is one of the worst when it comes to running with unsubstantiated rumors and reporting them as facts. Most if the guy's movie opinions consist of "that was so cool when.. " or "this part I didn't understand so it didn't work" and it's something that anyone could have figured out. Awful site and YT channel.

I'll say 50%for HB and 45% for LL.

I think LL will makeup a little ground Monday-Thursday, because it will attract a more older retired crowd.

Labor Day Weekend is after that too so they should both see good holds then. 

 

Then IT comes and it's like say goodnight lol 

 

But after that I think they're both fine all the way until Kingsman. That's going to be direct competition with both especially THB.

I hate the Inhumans - NOT Kirby's, I mean the abomination Marvel Comics turned them trying to make them the new X-Men - but WHAT THE HELL?! 

[ZattMurdock]

1. Wonder Woman

2. Spider-Man: Homecoming 

3. Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2

4. Get Out

5. Logan

 

Haven't watched anything else and I'm aware it's a shame.

[HenryMeyers20]

It's going to be interesting to see how LL plays in foreign markets without Soderbergh marketing strategy.

Tatum is in Europe promoting the film with a traditional marketing campaign.

I watch them every day. It depends who's on though. It's the best when Kristian, Mark, Schnepp and couple others are on the daily movie talk show. They're just speculating and giving their opinions on all the movie news and information that comes out. I don't always agree with them either but I still like hearing what they have to say. 

 

Schnepp is my favorite because not only is he knowledgeable about the industry but he's also really funny.

Ugh.

UGH.

I was SOOOOO looking forward to a theatrical live-action Inhumans movie.

UGH!!!!!

So much fucking potential!!!

I bet you that MCU would have had another breakout hit with The Inhumans.

Who knows...maybe the TV show will be beyond brilliant and successful...

Finally saw late night numbers at my theatre for last night. Logan Lucky had our equivalent of a 2.2M OD (not surprising) and HB opened to 11.9M OD (guessing a 26M weekend)

Sweet! Hoping it does well on Saturday

@WrathOfHan any interesting updates about your theater? I believe I have read here somewhere they have switched The Hitman's Bodyguard to the biggest screen? They are wise.
