Heretic Posted August 20, 2013 Author Share Posted August 20, 2013 Since becoming 2013’s biggest hit last week, Despicable Me 2 shows no signs of slowing down, adding $1.2m (£767,000) for a sterling $66.8m (£42.7m) to date through Universal. Looks like it'll hit $70m. Amazing run. MU should end up over $45m, which isn't too shabby considering it came just after DM2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Not to mention that pathetic opening weekend. It's this year's MIB3 run. Looks like a busy weekend coming. Mortal instruments, Elysium, we're the Millers, Jurassic Park in Imax AND previews for pain and gain on sat, sun and Mon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted August 20, 2013 Author Share Posted August 20, 2013 Elysium will probably take the number 1 spot, but I wouldn't even be surprised if Millers edges it out considering how well it's done in the US. Over £2m is possible for both. Jurassic Park should do well in IMAX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Elysium and Millers will both do well. Same with Jurassic Park. Mortal Instruments is going to bomb, while everyone already saw P&G online, that will hurt it a lot. They waited too much time to release it OS.

Gutted that kick-ass has already lost d-box which throws a spanner into my plans. Edited August 20, 2013 by Schumacher FTW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Films Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 You gonna watch the worst live-action animation movie of 2013? yes. Only cause I liked the first one (im in the minority) . Im probably going to see smurfs 2 and planes on the same day. A spinoff from a terrible movie franchise and an absolutely hated sequel, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A spinoff from a terrible movie franchise and an absolutely hated sequel, I wouldn't mind seeing Smurfs 2 as well as I liked the first one too. That said, I think I used up all my sequel credits by taking the other half to see Grown Ups 2 yesterday. Somebody needs to punch Taylor Lautner in the face. Really fucking hard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are one of those very few people liked TS2! Btw Launter should get punched extraordinarily hard!

SchumacherFTW Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I haven't seen Smurfs 2. Honestly, any time Lautner and his frat buddies were on screen, I wanted to gauge my eyes out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imane111 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Wonder how did WTM at it's opening night yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCS Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Weird how still no film has surpassed £50M at the BO by the end of August. Wonder if we will even get one to pass that mark this year, seems to be the year of mid-range hits and no massive films like last year.
