Well, a little better than i expected

[Jonwo]

So $13m for Hellboy?

[Brainbug]

Hey thats actually way better than i feared for Hellboy.

 

Its still a bad number ofc, but getting to 10M+ is better than going under that "milestone".

[Ezen Baklattan]

Both do around $5m today.

[EarlyDeadlinePredictions]

Hellboy rising above (low) expectations!

[filmlover]

Little will likely end up making more over the weekend than Hellboy.

[Curtis1986]

 I can see Little doing 15+.

Runtimes w/out credits and attachments for next week:

 

Breakthrough: 1:52. Attachments unknown (probably Spies in Disguise and one other Disney movie - Aladdin?)

Penguins: 1:12. Attachments are Frozen 2 and Toy Story 4

The Curse of La Llorona: 1:28. Attachments unknown (likely Annabelle Comes Home and It: Chapter Two)

Isn't it tough for CBM's to breach 9-10x the previews over ow. Thinking 12-14 ow for HELLBOY.

11x gives 15.

[Stewart]

Terrible for Hellboy really

Think it was 50m without P&A.

 

Also, @a2k, hope you don't mind, but your total reputation was annoying me being so close to 20k, so I pushed it over for you  Congratulations!

UA’s Missing Link, another stop-motion pic from the Oscar-nominated toon house of Laika, follows Mr. Link, an ape (voiced by Zack Galifianakis) who after living a solitary life in the Pacific Northwest, recruits fearless explorer Sir Lionel Frost (Hugh Jackman) to guide him on a journey to find his long-lost relatives in the fabled valley of Shangri-La. The pic is expected to open between $10M-11M at 3,413 theaters. Last night Missing Link made $230K, which is just under the $375K that Sony’s Smurfs: Lost Village did in April 2017; that pic opened to $13.2M after a $4.1M Friday.

 

We’re hearing that After made $550K in previews last night, which isn’t too shabby for an indie teen movie, especially on a night when only 2% K-12 schools are off. Compare this to a big studio spend teen movie like WArner Bros.’ If I Stay which made $1.1M. Is it front-loaded? We’ll see. After will play in 2,100 theaters and is set to make in the low single digits, akin to such indie teen pics like Midnight Sun ($4M) and Before I Fall ($4.6M) which did not hold previews.

@^ why u post china PS here.......

[TigerPaw]

First 2 hellboy films were good, cannot believe that a a decade later, instead of making a better reboot, they actually messed it up.

 

Still hoping for the best though. I am thinking B- cinemascore

Not sure how they're still getting the numbers they are from those previews, especially After

Based on my showing in the UK, even a C might be the best it'll do. 

[filmlover]

Missing Link probably would've fared better with a stronger distributor.
