Alli Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Why the panic? calm down. this will do over 40M...i guarantee it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) I wouldn’t be surprised if the runtime meant people are going today and tomorrow since they don’t have to worry about work the next day so it might have a bigger OD Edited October 6, 2017 by Jonwo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only off late have expectations raised to Mad Max numbers so we shouldn't be harsh on the film if it does less than 45 ow or something. Hoping the previews cross 4m at least. Because we still haven't learned to stop basing GA awareness/hype off fanboy-driven websites who studios always allow first screenings, knowing what easy lays (and loud mouths) they are. Then the film drops, the craziness dies down. Followed by them downplaying their own hyperbolic reactions with revisionist claims of "I never REALLY liked it!" 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozymandias Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 I know these aren't always indicative of legs but BR2049 has a 90% on Flixster and an 8.8/10 on imdb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TalismanRing Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 41 minutes ago, Cookson said: Why would WB be listed as the main studio then? You'd think SONYs name would be all over this. Alcon owns the rights and WB gets to distribute Domestically (I think because of a prior deal with them). WB did not finance it though. http://deadline.com/2017/10/ryan-gosling-blade-runner-2049-worldwide-box-office-opening-harrison-ford-1202181411/ Quote Warner Bros. is distributing the Alcon Entertainment co-financed sequel for a domestic distribution fee estimated at about 10%. Sony took foreign, and while they also co-financed Blade Runner 2049 with reportedly $90M of the production cost before rebates and tax credits, they do not co-own it. The domestic distributing studio is almost always listed as the main studio even if they don't finance it or another studio is co-financing it. See Marvel when they were distributed by Paramount. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCKillswitch123 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) Super early number. Probably not right. Wouldn't be shocked if it hits anywhere from 3.7 to 4. Also, I just wanna point out that THR's "review" of My Little Pony is the laziest bullshit ever - "it's just as bad or worse than Emoji", and it doesn't say how or why, it just says that without even attempting to elaborate. And I don't care about that movie, nevermind stan for it, but I noticed that and couldn't help but roll on the floor at some people's laughable self-righteousness.

Letting It keep two screens is looking to be a PERFECT decision Comparisons for BR: 20% of It (it's on par with It's second Friday, though) 45% of Kingsman 70% of AA 80% of THB MLP has sold 80% of Ninjago. Again, I don't have good comparisons for MBU, but it's waaay ahead of Home Again and 75% of AA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WrathOfHan Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 The first BR at Disney Springs has only sold 30 tickets, and the next one has sold VERY little. The Dolby Cinema at Altamonte is looking pretty solid today, but the IMAX at the same theater is looking pretty meh until the evening. Pointe Orlando's IMAX and 4DX are looking pretty light too. Dunno. These sales aren't really encouraging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozymandias Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Blade Runner wasn't turned into an action movie or franchise for today's audiences. Bravo to Denis Whatshisname, Ridley Scott, and Hampton Fancher for not going that route to make it more accessible to $$$$ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does no good to make a $150M masterpiece if it causes a $50M-$100M loss for your studios...

Maybe they should had a deal on Atom TBH I imagine from WB and Sony’s POV, Blade Runner 2049 wasn’t likely to be a big moneyspinner but they’ll reap the rewards later on.

Cinemascore/posttrack demo for the first weekend Apes: 64% over 25 Kingsman: 74% over 25 (the first one was just at 60% to show the strong tendancy) MadMax: 54% over the age of 35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
