Hellboy's doing incredible relative to my expectations. Thought sub-$10m was locked 😕

To be fair, it's probably gonna drop like 70% next weekend and then completely disappear the week after when Avengers comes to wipe out everything.

wow, Dumbo with another huge drop lol. Complete audience rejection. And it's not like Missing Link is doing particularly strong business either.

Next weekend is Easter, it might hold slightly better. It sure will be complete toast, just like all the other holdovers except CM, the weekend after.

Again this family rejection for the PG movies barring Dragon 3 is going to help Pikachu and Aladdin in May.

Nah I just like the visual aesthetics in his movies. I haven't even bothered to watch BvS and JL.

I was just joking, making fun of those DC fans on reddit who say it's going to be better than the actual release.

Families at this point are likely saving for the summer crop of major family films (Detective Pikachu, Aladdin, Pets 2, Toy Story 4, Lion King), which all have much more going for them anyway.

I’m thinking around MU numbers for it. I think legs for it aren’t going to be good.

If I were a betting man, I think each of them will cross $300M DOM or rather high $200Ms.

Maybe not TS4, but I can see the others doing so

TS4 is probably the most likely of those except for TLK to cross it.

Damn. How bad is Dumbo to basically  act like a horror film at box office?

It just burnt off a lot of demand opening weekend tbh. These remakes are getting very fanboy heavy/front-loaded

Was legitimately not expecting Dumbo to be this year's A Wrinkle in Time.

If the budget wasn't so high it wouldn't be, won't make a lot of money but Europe seems to like it at least.

It's a lot better than that shithole at least box office wise.
