Lol, we BO nerds all know better but this is gonna be one hell of a letdown tonight when they keep trending the numbers up. 

[Krissykins]

Bad Moms Christmas needs to keep dropping like this to save some face.

 

Solid opening for Murder on the Orient Express. 

 

Glad Daddy’s Home 2 isn’t breaking out. Looks dreadful and I hate the “snowflake” comment placed in the trailer without context. 

[La Binoche]

but what about lady bird?

DADDY1 did 4x (151/38) but was a Christmas release. Taking into account sequelitis and November release much more than 3x could be tough I guess? 21 ow/3.1x/65 dom

If MOTOE does 75m dom and 25m China for 100m combined in those 2 markets, how likely is 100m OS-China?

I told y'all that Thor would jump closer to 180%+ today, rather than those weak 150% predictions.

[aabattery]

They're all very committed to this 60M+ bit.

There is no reason why Bad Mom's shouldnt keep having solid drops throughout Nov/Dec. Nothing else catering to female audiences until Pitch Perfect 3. Daddy's Home 2 has to contend with Coco and Justice League so i dont anticipate great legs. Orient Express will have to depend on good WOM, because there are several awards contenders opening wider over Thanksgiving and December (Lady Bird, Three Billboards, Shape of Water, Darkest Hour) that will take away it's adult audience.

I hope DH2 does well. It looks hilarious! I'll be taking my mom this weekend. I showed her the trailer and I haven't seen her laugh that hard in a LONG time (she's had a tough go of it for awhile so it warmed my heart). I guess the humour isn't for everyone.

 

Come to think of it she really wants to see MOtOE as well. I guess I'll take her to one of these on the weekend and one next Tuesday or something. Next weekend it's JL time!

Wonder Woman, American Assassin, and Home Again said farewell yesterday. 

[efialtes76]

+200% on friday...

[Lordmandeep]

I think it does 55 million but that is a great 2nd-weekend drop.

 

It will drop a lot next weekend but I think that locks up 300 million then.

BTW, from the Deadline weekend update

Quote

 It [Daddy's Home 2] has a slight advantage in getting ahead of Justice League, which will earn $100M-$120M next weekend, if not more.

I have to imagine Kristen Wiig is looking at all of these flop comedy sequels from the past few years and being happy that she turned down Bridesmaids 2.

[CoolioD1]

only comedy sequels i like better than the original: hot shots part deux and bill & ted's bogus journey.
