My theater still doesn't have showtimes up for it. I just checked Orlando, and previews start at 5. That hasn't happened since Valerian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Any comedy sequels set for 2018 that we can be on the lookout for having a big decrease? Aside from Deadpool 2 (sort of). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxmoser3 Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 It’s a non-summer non-Friday debut people! Damn, friday will be more likely between $5-$7 million and with a 3-day debut ranging anywhere from $15-$20 million which is ok to not bad, for a comedy sequel. And Saturday should be decent with matinees and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I can still see it doing similar numbers to The Intern as counterprogramming for older audiences, which would be really good given the 10 year gap.

That'll make most of its money OS similar to how Bridget Jones did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumpot Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Maybe I'm making a BOT rookie mistake but this number is above what I expected and I think is pretty solid. I don't think the right contexts are being applied so I expect a good 5-day haul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumpot Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 (edited) Looks like deadline adjusted to 2.6M. will we ever know what that girl's night preview last week did?.. Edited November 2, 2017 by Rumpot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boxofficerules Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 What is it with Comedy sequels that makes them constantly under perform? Horrible Bosses 2, Ted 2, Hot Tub Time Machine 2, the list goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of like hearing the same joke twice. Plus the continued storyline is often forced and audience got wise to the blatant, lazy cash grab element. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I know the 2.6M isn't a preview number, but although others may disagree I am personally considering it along those lines given it was a random Wednesday after halloween. Some of the demand probably also was used up in that event last week so I would be interested to know what those numbers were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More often than not, the originals had a premise that was only good for one movie and the sequels gave audiences no real reason to come back. Hangover 2 (even if it still slightly dropped), 22 Jump Street, and Pitch Perfect 2 (the original movie was only a solid hit in theaters before exploding when it came out for home viewing) were exceptions, not the rule.

I don't think many knew it was opening on a Wednesday. So I really have no idea how it will do from here on out. This is a good point. Movie buffs like constantly track release date changes and stuff like that but a good portion of the the general public certainly could expect a typical Friday opening. A lot of people see posters or trailers and don't really take note of the release date. They just go "Oh Bad Moms 2! I want to see that!". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
