Heretic Posted August 18, 2012 Author Share Posted August 18, 2012 Fuck. Okay. So actually, it does look like the BO is going to plummet this weekend...50% down...on Friday. Damn.It was the hottest day of the year today. 32.3 degrees C and extremely humid, and even hotter tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilipJ2001 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 i will say though that although we're not on the coast, it is a heavily touristy area so we are affected massively by the weather, a lot more than i imagine big townscities are.

SchumacherFTW Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 It's been baking hot in my area. It seriously sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted August 18, 2012 Author Share Posted August 18, 2012 Apparently the real feel temperature tomorrow is 35 degrees when you factor in humidity, and I have to ride on the tube. So, I'll say my goodbyes now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 It's ridiculously hot, people are compalining that it's baking inside the cinema only to realise that it's even worse outside. Surreal weather. Films are dropping from yesterday, only TDKR seem to do decent business due to IMAX. It's getting worse for Expendables as it might drop one position to Batman, it's sitting 5th currently. Bourne is doing slighly better than Ted, Brave is keeping the top spot.

Heretic Posted August 18, 2012 Author Share Posted August 18, 2012 Public transport really need to get air conditioning. It's actually ridiculous and absolutely disgusting. I was on a bus today and I was stuck to the chair.That's horrendous for TE2. Looks like it's flopping here too. Same as the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bourne is doing slighly better than Ted, Brave is keeping the top spot.Wow, Expendables 2 is doing really bad, if it finishes the weekend in 5th place that would be a big flop. Even 4th would be terrible. Doubt the WOM will be good enough for a big upsurge next week and weekend for it unless it pulls a 'MIB3' (similar weather), which I highly doubt.Public transport really need to get air conditioning. It's actually ridiculous and absolutely disgusting.

They should spend the money on making the Tube better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 MIB3 had seriously good legs and I think picked up as the weekend went on. Bet Disney and Universal are glad they launched their films on Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously, it's not that simple, but sometimes it's just so unbearable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCS Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 (edited) TDKR continues to impress, despite everything.I am guessing this is partly due to pre-booked IMAX tickets in some cinemas and at the BFI Imax and people wanting to see it in IMAX before it goes.And of course the fact that is a great film having an amazing and deserved BO run!

Heretic Posted August 19, 2012 Author Share Posted August 19, 2012 London feels like a tropical island today. It's overcast, but disgustingly humid, and it looks like a big thunderstorm is about to break out.The weather is cooling down from tomorrow, so the BO should return to normal after weeks of disruptions.
