Jonwo Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 I'll be curious to see how Transformers does as I have a feeling it's going to have a similar opening to Pirates. DM3 is out soon but there doesn't seem to be as much hype for it compared to Minions and DM2. I expect a good opening but I think it's not going to reach the heights of DM2 and Minions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hottest weekend of the year coming up, expect another very slumped box office. Films can't seem to catch a break right now. Yup nothing to see move along 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted June 18, 2017 Author Share Posted June 18, 2017 Yep. And it's staying hot all week too, and maybe next weekend. Awful for box office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's stupidly hot. dunno how people in actually hot countries can live like this. on that note I can't find a fan anywhere, so I think i'm gonna go to tesco and buy one. i don't care that its half 1 in the morning if I can't sleep :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 The weather's a lot cooler this weekend which bodes well for Transformers even though I think it's going drop from the fourth film's £11.7m opening although it should beat its actual three day opening of £3.7m, thinking £5-6m four day opening at the moment.

SchumacherFTW Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Found a movie that looks to be beating the heat to an extent. Baby Driver has unlimited screenings all around the country, and many are busy, if not sold out, and some cineworld's have added second or even third screens! Curious to see what happens next weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted June 21, 2017 Author Share Posted June 21, 2017 (edited) Today could be the hottest June day ever, could hit over 35 in London. Crazy heat for the UK over the past week.

If it is in dollar it will be a disaster for Transformers. But it should be in pound, not good either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
