Jayhawk the Hutt Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 BR 2049 is excellent. Has some rough patches like the original, and was starting to feel the length near the end, but at its best it's top-tier sci-fi. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing music, but I didn't expect anything less from Goldsmith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Seng Wah Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Down 11% from Fri, up 29% without previews. May hit 30mil if actual holds, I hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fmpro Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 There were rumors on Saturday morning from rivals that Alcon Entertainment/Sony’s Blade Runner 2049 via Warner Bros. was going to drop below $30M for the weekend. Business hasn’t gotten that bad yet, and Saturday night’s ticket sales now point toward a $31.3M opening at 4,058 theaters. Estimates for the film have dropped from $45M on midday Friday, to $36M last night to where we are now. As expected, Blade Runner 2049 is frontloaded with Saturday seeing an estimated $11.26M, -11% decline from Friday’s $12.6M (which includes $4M Thursday previews). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturday made $4.35M, +62% over Friday. And Lionsgate/Hasbro’s My Little Pony isn’t anything to be rearing about. Rival distributors were nodding over its potential double-digit results, especially for a little girl movie. But the pic is proven to be more niche than anything else with a $8.8M three-day, well below mid-teen tracking estimates and news of its solid advance ticket sales. Saturday’s business looks to be coming in at $3.49M, +18% over Friday. Ouch. +30% over real Friday 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dxmatrixdt Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 (edited) I see it dropping 40% at worst tomorrow Thursday - 4M Friday - 8.7M Saturday - 11.26M Sunday - 6.756M = 30.72 million weekend, $7,569 PTA. I predict 13.358 second weekend (-56.5%) at worst. Edited October 8, 2017 by Matrix4You Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zakiyyah6 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 (edited) I guess most people were like myself and didn't even know that the My Little Pony movie existed. We weren't discussing a film with a 30 million budget so saying that 30mil is good depending on the budget is pointless.
