how's Cloverfield Paradox doing this weekend?

less than Samson

Ant-Man 2 won't do the lofty numbers of its recent MCU brethren  but I think it can at least see the highway sign to a 300 million domestic gross

That's still a thing?

[That One Girl]

I wonder how much Bright will make, it's in its dollar theater run at the moment

[CoolK]

jumanji making over 400mn+ is astounding.....no one would have predicted even 200mn let alone 400...power of wom

Bright was a huge success for Netflix.

 

Tens of millions people watched that movie over its service.

In this dimension, or the alternate one?

All the more reason for it to do well.

 

Plus the last time Michelle Pfeiffer was in a superhero film it did really well

 

 

BR actually underperformed 

[DAR]

Bright and CP made more money than they deserved

Snow storm on the east coast (my area's getting 2-5 inches), so that might make grosses slightly deflated

Under 50% 2nd weekend drop confirmed

Surprisingly good holds for the holdovers. 50 Shades should be past 80M on Monday and will probably be pushed over the 100M mark. Peter Rabbit might make a run at 100M as well.

[That One Girl]

btw Black Panther isn't the best franchise film of the year mostly because Paddington 2 exists.  do not @ me.

I've seen Jumanji twice, once right after it opened, by myself, when it looked like it was getting swamped by Star Wars, the other time a few days ago, with my wife, while it is taking its extended victory lap. Thought it was blah the first time, and blah the second time.

 

My wife, however, loved it. Thought it was a blast. I guess those are the people who've made it such a shockingly stout-legged hit. 

So you didn’t like it, the general public apparently doesn’t give a shit about your opinion.

Coco

BV

$165,000

+199%

+17%

385

$429

$206,645,667

 

Despite losing ~450 theaters, Coco manages to INCREASE over last friday (The only film with estimates to do so)

 

Spillover from BP or targeted Early Man rejection? (Given Coco has a higher PTA on friday than Early Man)

Some people treat the theater like its their home. I had one of the rudest moviegoers at BP since I can remember. 

 

This dude couldn't stop commenting on everything in the movie. He'd insert his "witty" quips thinking the audience would laugh. That wasn't enough so he'd repeat lines after a character said them. He clapped obnoxiously loud after a few action scenes -- the only one to do so. During any dialogue scenes, his face was glued to his bright phone screen. It didn't matter if it was an action scene. When characters started talking, his face was on his phone. 

 

Towards the 3rd act, he started biting his fingernails, sucked on them, and spit them onto the floor. Probably the worst though, was that he took his shoes off, stinking up the room until he mercifully put them back on. 

 

There was another guy wearing a Make America Great Again hat, but thankfully he sat in the corner and bothered no one.

 

Nearly ruined my enjoyment. I needed to rant. I fucking hate people sometimes. 

I'm working today for the matinee and readingthis makes me want to be extra careful on shift... I want to make sure this bullshit doesn't happen to anyone.

Probably double features with that and BP.

[DAR]

Have they said what the budget is for BP?  I'm venturing the usual 200M+ for most blockbusters these days.

[That One Girl]

I was thinking Last Jedi would benefit from Black Panther double features and get over $1M but it lost 400 theaters and only made $134k on Friday SO NEVER MIND
