How does the week work now? Do a lot of people have Thursday off? Or is it a regular work day?

Unless you planned your vacation/personal days to take a long w/e it's a regular work day. 

 

 Thur #s should on avg come in a bit below Monday

That First Purge number seems bad.

[seduh]

Amazing numbers for I2, I still hope it can make it to $600.

Need the full Wednesday number, but usually the mid-week openers are slightly muted so its not concerning yet, but really it is the 4th film in a franchise with a well worn pattern so how much better should it be doing?

[Mojoguy]

2.5m for the Purge, no thanks to the TC.

I wonder what the next animated film to cross $500M will be? My bet is Shrek 5.

I can't see it personally just because the sequels took away any good will or nostalgia unlike something like The Incredibles 2. Maybe a live action Shrek movie similar to what they did Beauty and the Beast or The Jungle Book could be big if done right but a fourth sequel? I'm not so sure. 

I'd say Toy Story 4 will, even if it's just to 501M.

Maybe Frozen 2 if they really make a good story and not just a "let's milk the cow" with a part 2 whatever. 

And definitely Shrek 5 will, if that's happening (again, with a good script, what i'm sure they will do if they get into that ship).

Shrek 5 is getting nowhere near $500m unless it is as groundbreaking as the original. The franchise ran itself into the ground and has to work its way back.

[seduh]

Shrek 5 has almost no chance to make $500, the franchise has decline a lot in the USA. It can rebound but not that much. Toy Story 4 has a great chance of doing $500 if it's really good as the third one.

Still look like ~$550M for I2 to me. its leg has been shaky (for a Pixar animation)

What other Pixar film burned off $182 million in demand on OW?

Yes, a lot of people have Thurs/Fri off. Not everyone, but enough to see it reflected in the box office.

LIES.

 

Shrek is Love. Shrek is Life.

 

 

I think some of you here dont know how big of a Meme Shrek truly is. Memelords alone will lift Shrek 5 over 500M.

[baumer]

Is Shrek 5 really coming out?  There's nothing about it on imdb except that it is rumoured.

TS4 is more likely to go under $300M than over $500M.

[WrathOfHan]

Shrek 5 is easily going over 400.

[Darth Lehnsherr]

It's pretty mind boggling how much Shrek 2 made back in 2004. Dunno if a Shrek 5 would make over $400M but the first four Shrek films are still the four highest grossing Dreamworks films in North America. Shrek 5 is a no brainier for Universal and it would be pretty easy to get the core cast back.

It has the entire month of July to itself.

[Moviefanatic]

Are people serious about these TS4 and Shrek 5 500 million predictions? This as bad as people predicting 200+ OW for GOTG3. 

 

I guess an argument can be made for TS4 but personally it seems like a sequel that nobody was begging for. TS3 was the perfect ending.

 

And Shrek 5....lol. I enjoyed the 4th one but yea...no.
