They were sold out online even before the movie opened. Shades of Frozen. They need to get it in gear for the BR release which I assume has to be available by Christmas (if it's not someone should probably lose their job) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw CR a couple weeks ago and can't understand why it's not at 90% or so. What's not to like? It's a sweet, well acted story. Box office is clearly disappointing, though. Perhaps just not enough action for a summer release? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean it is only a mid budget movie, so, it should do fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TalismanRing Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Pre-Labor Day Monday Totals PD: $607,387 $55,482,223 / $76,233,151 (completed) CR: $612,935 / $78,163,501 With PD drops from now on out itCR would make another $20.94m for a $99.1m total. CR is pacing better, so hard to see it missing $100m domestic even w/o a push. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue it runs into will be the fact that Disney won't release anything until Nutcracker in November, so it might be hard to keep CR in theaters until then. But if they can pull it off, it'll probably be in perfect double feature fudge territory by the time Nutcracker opens. So yeah, I don't think it's a lock, but I find it likelier than not that it hits 100M at this point. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they'll need to push it though, it's legging it better than PD and as you said will be near $90m after Labor Day. Off a $6m plus w/e getting another $10m should not require creativity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for attaching it to something else to help put it over the line, while Nutcracker does come out first, there's also Ralph Breaks the Internet later in the month. That having a much better opening could be pretty tempting to Disney if it needs a final final push, even if it isn't the best tonal match in the world. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
