Okay let me break it down. Realistically, NFOS wouldn't probably do well. It would be too deep and artistic for mainstream audiences. The only possible way it could make cash was if it opened low and got great word of mouth. That is my explanation for why I went that direction. Also while the film is fantastic, marketing it would be a nightmare. Audience need to see the entire film to appreciate it and then spread the word. Yes, I did pull from the GSM a lot but sue me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ezen Baklattan Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Yeah, that definitely makes sense. It’s hard to tell if it would be marketed more as a cartoon-based comedy or a drama about depression and anxiety, so it would be pretty tough. I’d much rather have a small opening and a leggy run, and man this thing’s performing like an 80s movie. I wonder if it can reach a 10x multiplier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only films that didn’t drop more than 30% were Odyssey (which acted like it gained theatres that Friday) and Otherspace (which is clearly on its own plane).

Rorschach Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Good to see Odyssey 2 stick around right up to the last weekend in the top 10. It was a good run. Now I just gotta worry about a bunch of ducks dethroning it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH if I don't get to do a sequel to the giant flying fire-breathing turtle movie I won't exactly be devastated.

Hiccup23 Posted May 9, 2018 Author Share Posted May 9, 2018 Friday, September 6th Swats Kats 2 opened with a strong $40.1M. It will see a relatively easy schedule ahead until Kim Possible opens. Notes from the Otherspace and The Howling dominated in #2 and #3 spots. Notes from the Otherspace shows impressive legs. SWAT Kats 2: The Viper Strikes - $40,117,831 million Notes from the Otherspace- $8,285,135 million The Howling- $7,942,116 million Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad- $7,768,540 million Life of a Prophet- $4,128,993 million (-45.4%) Things Fall Apart- $3,110,564 million Gamera- $2,823,337 million The Scavenger Wars- $2,398,479 million Miraculous- $2,012,191 million Gentle Ben- $1,224,066 million Friday, September 13th Friday the 13th helped The Cycle of the Werewolf lunge into first with $45.7M opening weekend. The film was welcomed with positive reviews and marks the second werewolf film of the year. The genre normally struggles at the box office and with critics but both the Howling and The Cycle of the Werewolf defied the odds. SWAT Kats 2 fell 50% to $20.0M. A respectable drop the for the sequel. Doom bombed with $13.4M. Reviews were mixed. The Cycle of the Werewolf – $45,738,290 million SWAT Kats 2: The Viper Strikes - $20,005,483 million (-50.1%) Doom – $13,379,051 million Notes from the Otherspace- $7,781,284 million Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad- $4,146,942 million The Howling- $2,960,122 million Life of a Prophet- $2,337,706 million Things Fall Apart- $1,876,584 million Gamera- $1,514,323 million The Scavenger Wars- $1,494,619 million Friday, September 20th Cross Country landed in #1 with a strong $26.7M. Audiences connected with the film and it could see a solid run. Dazzled disappointed with $12.0M. The Cycle of the Werewolf fell harder than expected with -63.1%. Friday the 13th inflated the opening weekend so this drop in hindsight isn’t too surprising. Doom dropped to $6.5M and has not made up any ground. Cross Country - $26,659,911 million The Cycle of the Werewolf- $16,889,152 million (-63.1%) Dazzled – $12,021,328 million SWAT Kats 2: The Viper Strikes - $11,942,389 million Notes from the Otherspace- $7,002,175 million Doom- $6,540,421 million (-51.1%) Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad- $2,175,202 million The Howling- $1,657,777 million Life of a Prophet- $1,289,511 million Things Fall Apart- $1,060,180 million Friday, September 27th Kim Possible defied the mixed reviews and opened with $49.6M opening weekend. This is thanks to the popularity of the character. Legs are a big question make though and its could see poor legs. Cross Country fell to $15.3M which is respectable. The Cycle of the Werewolf faced friendly fire and fell over 50% again. It should stabilize next weekend. Meanwhile, Fright Town struggled to open with $7.2M. Still it is on par with pre-release expectations. Dazzled dropped a bad -55% with $5.5M. Audiences apparently didn’t feel like it was worth a second go around. Kim Possible – $49,594,003 million Cross County- $15,275,776 million (-42.7%) The Cycle of the Werewolf- $8,238,006 million Fright Town - $7,243,987 million Notes from the Otherspace- $6,303,210 million Dazzled- $5,520,347 million (-55.0%) SWAT Kats 2: The Viper Strikes - $4,798,880 million Doom- $3,381,300 million The Howling- $849,425 million Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad- $824,644 million 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
