Sony's going for low TCs two weeks in a row between Slender Man and Alpha

The Meg: 23.5/60 (+62/+58%)

That's more like it for The Meg

[WrathOfHan]

Runtimes without credits and trailer attachments for next week's releases:

 

BlacKkKlansman: 2:09. Attachments unknown (my guess is one of Focus' fall titles and Halloween because of Blumhouse).

The Meg: 1:45. Attachments unknown (Godzilla's bound to be one).

Slender Man: 1:29. Attachments unknown (probably White Boy Rick/Spider's Web).

 

Dog Days isn't uploaded, but is anyone on here actually going to see that?

Did Paramount give A Quiet Place a late push just so it could crawl above Interstellar on the all-time chart?

 

Jul 13–15	30	$83,484	-38.8%	132	-30	$632	$187,615,740	15
Jul 20–22	32	$101,402	+21.5%	108	-24	$939	$187,771,561	16
Jul 27–29	29	$113,058	+11.5%	158	+50	$716	$187,954,270	17

 

 

216	A Quiet Place	Par.	$188,024,361	2018
217	Interstellar	Par.	$188,020,017	2014

 

I guess now they can say it's their highest grossing original movie domestically since Titanic. Unless there are some DWA movies you can count.

I wouldn't be surprised if Alpha does sub-$10M total. August is gonna be really bleak for the most part, as usual.

Interstellar got a re-release so it's at 190 really. Maybe the bump AQP got co-incidentally pushed it over IS.

I'm with you there; it's going to do worse than The Darkest Minds. Don't bet your life for it

Lot of old release got a nice bump the 20-22 weekend (greatest showman, Rampage, black panther)

https://www.boxofficemojo.com/weekend/chart/?view=main&yr=2018&wknd=29&sort=change&order=DESC&p=.htm

 

Rampage (PTA and TC):

Jul 13–15	37	$54,714	-84.8%	61	-59	$897	$99,133,659	14
Jul 20–22	30	$125,048	+129%	114	+53	$1,097	$99,278,002	15

 

Showman not in PTA but with such a wide theater gain maintained it very well:

 

Jul 6–8	81	$1,836	-94.4%	10	-8	$184	$174,307,966	29
Jul 13–15	74	$2,226	+21.2%	8	-2	$278	$174,312,158	30
Jul 20–22	53	$15,197	+583%	95	+87	$160	$174,328,701	31

 

Last 2 week of july being the most popular time for vacation and it started the 20-22 weekend ?

 

 

The week 27-29, that was MI openning of the same studio, could have been 50 drive making double feature with Mission Impossible like this one:

Prepare to be bored on the biggest screen possible by a movie that’s less entertaining than its parody on Recess.

How To Train Your Dragon. Although that was based off a book, so if you go further down the list, Kung Fu Panda and Monsters vs. Aliens are above Quiet Place by a comfortable margin.

Cinemark is bringing back all the Harry Potters + the first Fantastic Beasts for one week in XD on August 31. Gonna be fun to see how desperate theaters will get for content during those two weeks at the end of the month.
