grey ghost Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) I say this will be frontloaded over the weekend for two main reasons: 1) Fanboy property/franchise 2) Mixed WOM (due to pacing and legnth) Edited October 6, 2017 by grey ghost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfHan Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 If MLP follows Boss Baby: 3M 3.9M 2.8M 9.7M Weekend Storks: 3.8M 6.2M 4M 14M Weekend There's a lot of ways MLP can go, but it'll probably hit 10M at least. If MBU follows Home Again: 4.1M 4.7M 2.6M 11.4M Weekend Girl on the Train: 3.1M 3.2M 1.9M 8.2M Weekend 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lestranger Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 27 minutes ago, raegr said: I think this has a solid shot at $50M and here's why... Let's look at the target demographic for Blade Runner, the GA, older audiences and Ryan Gosling fans + cinephiles who loved the original. The older audiences will most likely not see until later in the weekend. It's mostly the cinephiles and nerds who are seeing this on preview night, that's why I think this will be much more backloaded than expected... $56.4M It is also super long. That doesn't play well for Thursday night movies. I don't think there is a good comp for this. I expect it to overperform these preview numbers pretty massively. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dxmatrixdt Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Ghost in the Shell and Valerian each did about 10x previews. This sets up 40M. I'd say 10P + P = 44 million 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCsoft Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 I agree that the long run-time may turn people off a bit for Thursday night viewing, hopefully it'll continue to do solid business over the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people I've talked to who have no interest in it is BECAUSE they love the original movie. They don't want to see it "ruined'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfHan Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Runtimes without credits and attachments for next week: Marshall: 1:53. Attachments unknown. The Foreigner: 1:47. Attachments are Den of Thieves and Molly's Game. Happy Death Day: 1:30. Attachments are Insidious, Pitch Perfect, and Thoroughbreds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the Anya Taylor-Joy/Olivia Cooke/Anton Yelchin (his last) movie from Sundance. Still doesn't have a release date. Possibly a first quarter 2018 release?

Maxmoser3 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Decent for Blade Runner. Not too grand for Pony or Mountain, both films will likely debut between $8-$9 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a2k Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) Nut Job 2 did 330k previews and 8.34m ow but that was a sequel. So My Little Pony one could do 8.5-9.5m even with smaller previews (290k). Would't be surprised if it legs it to 3.5x+ (like The Emoji Movie) with that ow for 30-35m dom. Nut Job 2 itself did 3.4x. Anyone know the prod budget? Edited October 6, 2017 by a2knet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnack Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) 8 hours ago, Krissykins said: Hmm this sounds like a strange deal. Why would WB pay for 4,000 locations to get 10%? Plus why would WB be interested? Anymore info on this anywhere? With digital release being more and more the norm, does you have to pay for 4,000 locations more than for 3,500, or the more theater that accept to play your movie the better without adding necessarily much to the cost ? I would also be interest to a 10% (and not the 20 or 30) type of deal info, same for Paramount 8-9% on those marvel distribution, at those price I imagine the producer pay for all the P&A ? Because 10% of 53% of the box office is not a lot, even on a 150m gross, around 7.95m and a movie like this had a 30m+ domestic P&A.

Outrageous!

I'm skeptical MLP can get to $10 million. Its opening days are fan driven, and when compared to most animated movies, MLP skews much more heavily towards a girl audience, and mostly excludes a boy audience. Most other animated films would try to bring in an equal amount of boys and girls if possible. That means quick drop offs in its opening days and in its second weekend are likely for MLP, when compared to the box office numbers of recent animated films. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WrathOfHan Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 I don't think MLP is going to be as frontloaded as some of you think it will be, nor do I think it'll have stellar legs. 12/34 is probably fair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
