Lmao, I just heard an ad for Baywatch on the radio. FUCKING HELL PARAMOUNT, MARKET mother!

 

 But why?

[Zakiyyah6]

Whoever pointed out that Wonder Woman was running ahead of The Hunger Games instead of just following the Spider-Man comparison was a genius. And yes the reexpansion the weekend before Labor Day was a very smart idea on WB's part.

 But why?

It's advertising the UNRATED DIRECTORS CUT that probably has like 40 seconds of new footage

[a2k]

WAR OF APES needs 146.5m dom to hit 2.60x multiplier.

Will it get there? Had a 1m 3-day weekend and is 2.25m away.

 

RISE was 3.23x and DAWN was 2.87x. The sequelitis would have been easily digestible if it had opened to say, 65-70m and done close to 2.60x for 170-180 dom.

They are desperate to sell some Blurays for Baywatch.

'baywatch' and 'mother' in the same sentence is  

[Zakiyyah6]

mother! is a somewhat low budget, probably hard to watch, film. I have no idea why people are trying to put Blockbuster numbers on it? It's not a blockbuster type of film, stop trying to turn it into one. Lawrence's mainstream movie is Red Sparrow, not mother!

Dunkirk since it's the only good movie of the four (haven't seen All Saints but I doubt it's good).

You really love Dunkirk, right? Just do that again. none of the other three really seem like they need to be seen.

Thanks to solid legs Spidey has retained 2000+ theaters after nine weekends.

 

Jul 7–9	1	$117,027,503	-	4,348	-	$26,915	$117,027,503	1
Jul 14–16	2	$44,205,210	-62.2%	4,348	-	$10,167	$207,275,524	2
Jul 21–23	3	$22,150,085	-49.9%	4,130	-218	$5,363	$251,851,666	3
Jul 28–30	5	$13,261,372	-40.1%	3,625	-505	$3,658	$278,168,177	4
Aug 4–6	6	$8,845,978	-33.3%	3,116	-509	$2,839	$294,953,754	5

Aug 18–20	7	$4,256,367	-29.3%	2,341	-266	$1,818	$314,057,748	7
Aug 25–27	7	$2,820,476	-33.7%	2,122	-219	$1,329	$318,938,558	8
Sep 1–3	7	$3,650,000	+29.4%	2,036	-86	$1,793	$324,051,546	9

I think it's steady run on the lower side will continue and it will challenge GOTG1.

 

These estimates are freaking insane. A +29.4% for a $3.6m Labour Weekend without we even seeing the Monday makes $330m a lock and topping Spider-Man 3 for the biggest Spider-Man film of all time now doesn't look so crazy, does it?
