People love RGB and it's certainly a relevant topic. 50m wouldn't stun me. I could even see $60-70M happening. Old people are gonna flock to it.

terrestrial Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 China Gavin Feng @gavinfeng97 3m3 minutes ago More Aquaman reached $250M in China on THU. It's an era of superhero films because top three import films in 2018 are all superheroes: Infinity War, Venom, AQM. #Aquaman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless it gets nominated for a PGA, it has no chance of having any sort of Oscar buzz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorddemaxus Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 (edited) I rewatched Spider-verse today and the movie was a lot funnier. I think I missed a few of the jokes the first time I watched the movie. Also, Spoiler his uncle's death (^^^^SPOILER) got me pretty hard this time.

But The Basis of Sex looks like your dime-a-dozen white-bread biopic that will be lost in the shuffle the moment it goes wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrestrial Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 (edited) Quote In its first Wednesday of its six-day run, Warner Bros’ Aquaman posted a super $16.9M, a figure that beats the first Wednesday hauls of several fanboy pics. While that figure is under the take of Warner Bros./DC’s Dark Knight Wednesday of $18.3M and nickels under Avengers: Infinity War ($16.966M), Aquaman yesterday outstripped the Wednesdays of Star Wars: The Last Jedi ($16.88M), Batman Begins’ opening day ($15M), Rogue One: A Star Wars Story ($14.9M), Black Panther ($14.6M), Dark Knight Rises ($13.7M), Justice League ($10.4M), Suicide Squad ($9.8M), Wonder Woman ($9.3M) and Batman v. Superman ($8.1M). Yes, that’s how powerful the fish man is. Through six days with previews, Aquaman counts $122.6M, which is $300K ahead of Justice League over the same period. However by Sunday, industry estimates believe that Aquaman will be ahead of that DC pic’s 10-day total of $171.9M. Aquaman‘s second weekend is currently projected at $54M, -20%. Quote Disney’s Mary Poppins Returns remained in second with $10.9M yesterday, -5% for an eight-day take of $60.8M. Her second weekend is estimated at $25M, which would be +6% from last weekend. Paramount’s Bumblebee is expected to remain in third place in weekend 2 with $21M, roughly even with last weekend. Yesterday, the Transformers spinoff grossed $6.2M, -29% for a six-day take of $40.5M. Sony’s Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse was fourth yesterday with $5.9M, +5% from its Christmas day take with a running total of $79.6M. The animated pic’s third weekend is projected at $16M, and it wouldn’t be a surprise if Spider-Verse hits $100M by Sunday. https://deadline.com/2018/12/aquaman-wednesday-box-office-second-weekend-projection-vice-holmes-watson-1202526448/ and more Edited December 27, 2018 by terrestrial 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arrrgghhhh what else to complain about on the search to whatever? it depends on .... sometimes Disney's office is the fastest, sometimes middle ground....

I imagine because it’s been put in smaller auditoriums everywhere there has been a bigger urgency to buy tickets in advance (at least at theaters with reserved seating) while the others have been more walk-up based.

ThomasNicole Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 (edited) another excellent hold for MPR, if continues the trend i think it could so something like: wed - $ 10.9M [-5%] thurs - $ 10.4M [-5%] fri - $ 12.0M [+15%] sat - $ 12.6M [+5%] sun - $ 8.9M [-30%] second weekend: $ 33.5M [+42%] total:$ 104.7M by dec 30... this will probably lock + $ 200M dom Edited December 27, 2018 by ThomasNicole 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
