Cursed Child is an utter abomination. Rowling should probably be punished for coming up with it

53% drop. fine i think considering sunday was inflated last weekend and this weekend's sunday will be especially low.

should easily cross 75 which also happens to be the benchmark for a 3.5x multi.

If the Cursed Child movie gets made there's a 0% chance it's good.

Yup, @a2knet nailed it. Not a great drop for Hitman's Bodyguard, but considering the inflation of LD weekend, it could've been a lot worse too, especially with a 120M+ opener at hand too. A 70M+ ending would be fabulous for its budget and opening.

I've never read it (or seen the play), how bad is it really?

[That One Girl]

I think I liked Cursed Child when I first read it but it's one of those things where it sits in the back of your mind and you realize how fucking awful it is

I didn't like the story either. It is strange how the play is getting sooo much praise. It may be woring adapted?!

[John Marston]

Cursed Child is terrible. Honestly it should be tested non canon and JK should write a new sequel

If someone told me it was a fanfic from a middle school girl I would buy it

Incredible OW.  Wonder how close that will be to the actual?

Lmao, it's going to go waaaay up from estimates if that's true. That'd mean

51

46.5

19.65 (-58%)

Unless Fri / Sat estimates were way off, I can't see it dropping that low even with Irma / NFL kickoff.

Only 20M on Sunday? That's an over 50% drop. Sounds waaaaaaaaayyyyyyy too harsh if you ask me.

 

But WHO CARES. IT'S AN R-RATED HORROR MOVIE DOING 117M IN 3 DAYS, THIS IS FUCKING INSANE.

[Scubasteve716]

Were they wrong with Friday Saturday numbers then? Are they really only expecting a $20 mil Sunday?

[FantasticBeasts]

Exoecting an increase with actuals!

[That One Girl]

They're doing this so it can "shockingly" go up from estimates.
