I was saying in the Buzz thread how previews at my theater for Dragon and All Saints were Live By Night territory, and Dragon's previews are 125k less (though obviously it's in fewer theaters). A similar PTA to LBN has it missing 3M, and given the factors this weekend (Hurricane in Texas today, Mayweather vs McGregor tomorrow, GOT finale Sunday), I don't think it'll even make 2.6-2.7M

fascinating.......

I never saw any marketing for Birth of a Dragon, which seems to be the norm for a BH Tilt release, so these numbers make sense.

 

Summer is officially over with a dead weekend coming up. Next weekend's 4-day frame will be just as bad, if not worse, with nothing really opening. At least IT will conquer the following weekend.

I really don't understand why we're having 2 weeks of nothing. When there's plenty that could have been moved to either weekend.

American Made would've done really well over this period; instead, we're getting it a month after most places

If we actually had anything big at the start of the month these latter weeks wouldn't be as dire.

I vaguely remember seeing a commercial that seemed to imply Bruce Lee was actually starring in the film.

Good riddance. Birth Of The Dragon looked awful.

 

This is gonna be a wonderful (sarcasm) weekend. I can only hope that Hitman's Bodyguard and Annabelle have good holds (and Logan Lucky too, I guess).

Late August/Labor Day weekend have always been a dumping ground for the rotting corpses of movies that studios don't care about and know won't make much money. Nothing out of the ordinary.

Birth of the Dragon's embargo only lifted today and it's already at 14% on RT  All Saints doesn't even have reviews out. Meanwhile, Leap! has dropped down to 37%. Wasn't it supposed to be decent? Audience scores:

 

Good Time: 87%

Ingrid: 83%

All Saints: 78%

Leap!: 66%

Dragon: 62%

You'd think The 40 Year Old Virgin, Don't Breathe, and especially the 2009 duo of Inglourious Basterds and The Final Destination would have taught them something.

I'm surprised they even reported it

Prayers for all those in Houston and Corpus Christi. 

 

My wife and I have a rental house down there. At least we have flood insurance.

 

[Daxtreme]

Birth of the Dragon looks terrible

 

no surprises here

If you're looking for a movie to see this weekend go see Wind River. It's my favorite movie of the year thus far.

Guardians of the galaxy did fine with a mid August release.
