Saturation release for Popstar my arse, I've gotta drive 50 miles to see it! 

 

Im surprised it's getting released at all, it'll be one and done IMO

 

As summer comes to an end, it'll be interesting what'll do well in September. I think Bridget Jones will be a solid hit but I'm thinking The Magnificent Seven will do very well, maybe not huge numbers but £3-4m wouldn't surprise me

Why surprised? We get virtually everything that releases in the states, even if it takes a while, like Keanu last month as an example.

Given that it bombed in the US, I thought Universal would pull its release but guess they think they can make money even if it's a meagre amount

Uk is only INTL getting it at this stage, sometimes there has to be some commitment to release in X countries and/or if Theatrical don't think its  viable but   Home Ent and/or TV think some form of theatrical release will add in selling extra units or upping price for TV sale then if that argument can be justified they will give it some form of theatre release and then look later if the Theatrical release did anything to help the other revenue streams.

It's been so hot all week here, temps easily above 30, and clear blue sky today, not good for cinemas. This weekend looks a bit more unsettled, but next week it looks warm and dry again, which has been the story all month. Dory has had an uphill battle, but it's still doing very well. If it had been a rainy August, it'd probably be over £40m already.

I think Dory probably will retain number 1 but I can see Bad Moms debuting in second place. SS will hit £30m this weekend for sure, if it hasn't done so already. 

 

Apart from Kubo, there isn't any major competition kids wise until Storks and Trolls in October so Dory will chug along to £40m.

Big 50% drop for Dory, obviously good weather has had an impact, as bank holiday weekends usually sees small decreases or even increases. 

 

Dory still has one more week of holidays so I think £40m is doable by next week or the week after as Kubo won't make much of a dent.

 

Wonder if SS hit £30m this weekend?
