@raulbalarezo and @filmlover Oh shit. I always forget. 

[LawrenceBrolivier]

Its obvious that Avengers' impact greatly extended Spider-Man's box-office this time around... but I wonder if the late legs are going to be similarly boosted by Endgame's home video run that's just starting...

What happened? 51M including almost 10M from Japan is a pretty sharp drop for TLK OS in comparison to last week no? Or maybe I mixed up numbers. I know that OS will jump with actuals but didn't it make over 100M last week? 

Not at all (i wonder why your insistence on saying week after week that TLK drops are sharp and bad).

 

Last week TLK made intl. 81M    (mon-thu) + 72M (fss).

This week TLK made intl. 42.5M (mon-thu) + 41.5M (fss ... excluding the 9.5M opening from Japan). 

That makes a -47.5% drop (mon-thu) and a -42.3% (fss ... but -29.2% if you include Japan ow numbers on the mix). 

 

So TLK overseas dropped -38.8% (week to week) and -29.2% (weekend to weekend). 

 

At this rate, 1B+ OS shouldn't be in danger. Adding 550M dom, i see it landing on 1.6B+ WW.

I think HS also opened in Japan so it has just Italy to come OS-China. Should add 125 more OS-China including Italy taking the tally to 460. 55 more Dom (163.5 total) will give it 515 WW-China.

 

185 from China for 700 WW.

 

Sounds low to be frank...

I'm not insisting at all. I just thought it made over 100M last week but now I think I was mistaken. What I insist on is that OS WOM is better for foreign voices did far better job than critically panned American cast.

I think Hobbs and Shaw is a real thing now not just because there's big diva fights going on behind the scenes. I think that's only just part of it, really. I think producers and executives at Universal can see the decline already happening with the series, and Hobbs and Shaw was an attempt to prevent it, or at least slow it down. It lets them "reboot" the series without really "rebooting" it. The big egos clashing helps facilitate this... but I think no matter what happens, this series' best days are behind it, and now its a question of trying to find a sustainable place for it at the studio before it completely fizzles out.

[Valonqar]

I hope Crawl

s gonna crawl to 40M. 2M left but theater loss is staggering. 

[Eric Duncan]

Bit surprised at that Dora Sunday drop. Latino-led films usually overperform on Sunday (Latin Lover and Instructions Not Included sometimes increased on Sunday, Coco dropped in the low 20s while everything else dropped in the 30s), so having it just drop in the mid 20s like everyone else is weird. Of course, these are still weekend estimates, so it could change by tomorrow.

[Valonqar]

likely underestimated Sunday.

Last weekend people on here complained that Hobbs & Shaw underperformed. Well it’s doing just fine. It’s just like the porn forums I used to go to and they got  all hysterical that Glamour Model Melissa Debling got her boobs done. 

 

Anyway im not here to talk about Melissa Debling, she’s hot but this is box office talk not hot women talk or classic conversation. Hobbs & Shaw took in a decent cruise for the weekend, should finish in the $170 million or so vicinity, as overseas should help out as well! 

 

It was nice to see Once Upon A Time In Hollywood hold strong and pass $100 million this weekend as well. As a fan I Hope late summer legs will help boost the film some momentum. 

 

Scary Stories and Dora pulled in decent debuts for moderate budgeted flicks, Scary Stories should pull in $50 million domestic and Dora should pull in close to $60 million. 

 

As for the other new releases, they were eh to awful. The Kitchen is proving to be that audiences are tired of Melissa McCarthy as it’s her lowest debut yet! Maybe her lowest since her brief roles In duds like Go or Drowning Mona. 

 

The Art Of The Racing In The Rain was expected to do eh. So it’s debut is eh. 

 

Brian Banks looked like Brian Blanks more than anything. 

 

This box office weekend was interesting but I’m not feeling like doing a gigantic analysis this weekend. Only think I was here for this weekend was to be happy on Once Upon A Time In Hollywood passing $100 million, Hobbs & Shaw doing alright, and that silly comparison that I feel sometimes on these forums.

3.7x this weekend like I2 gives 74 more for 548 dom. But considering it's not matching I2's legs by a distance it's likely to do less than that. Guessing 535+ finish.
