It says including previews. 

They started at 4pm or some crap so why

[The Panda]

BOM should include the 4m in OW for simplicity sake.  That’s the precedent that’s been set since they started doing them 6 years ago or so.  Changing it now just convolutes things.

Honestly hope DP2 edges out Solo.

I looked at the BOM numbers and it made no sense to me

It’s silly.  I get that previews were early for this one, but breaking precedent just causes confusion.

My 45 mil weekend prediction included previews

Honestly, the low(er) turnout for 4 PM shows will dissuade WB or any other studio from trying it again sometime soon.

It'd be fine for family films in the summer or holidays but not films aimed at an older demo.

seniors like going early in the day, though.  Is 4pm not a perfect time for them?

[Poseidon]

HR:

$40m+ Ocean's 8
$13m-$15m Hereditary
$2,5m-$4,5m Artemis

Wait for "The Nun", my dear friend.

The Nun is gonna dominate like nothing else.  Spooky dolls, clowns and nuns for everybody!

Ocean's 8 was pretty mediocre, very weak script, not unexpected for this franchise

My current Casino win streak agrees with you:)...

Aw, yeah.  Two hours of ladies stealing shit, looking fabulous, and being nice to each other; add in cameo after cameo of awesome, and you have a good time at the movies.  I think WOM will be mixed-positive.  My crowd had scattered laughs throughout.  I want Ocean's 9 and 10 now.  Only WITHOUT Gary Ross.  Yeah.  Let's just not.

 

More importantly, I need Jurassic World to come out NOW.  If I see that trailer again, I'm gonna start throwing popcorn at the screen.  I'm sure the movies fine, but geez, I feel like our theater runs it before EVERYTHING.

The third film had a weak script, but  the 2001 film had a great script,and the sequel had a pretty good one.

[baumer]

If O8 does 17 for Friday, even with just a 20% jump on Saturday, that gives it a 45 weekend. 50 seems doable imo.

[aabattery]

All three have good scripts. Haven't seen 8.

We need to have Ocean's 9 first before we can get to 10. I agree Gary Ross will likely be replaced for a potential sequel.

[DeeCee]

I’ll probably see 8 today. I’ll probably watch 11 once every few years into the future. I have zero interest in watching 12 or 13 again.
