Weekend Thread: Estimates - Angel Has Fallen $21.25M | Good Boys $11.75M | Overcomer $8.20M | The Lion King $8.15M | H&S $8.14M - & $101.8M in China

Having seen Angel has Fallen, it does have an open ending so a fourth film is possible but I hope Butler takes a break from these type of films

I'm proper scared of what will happen when the Joker reactions drop.

Yea, I'm not getting my hopes up. I'm also scared of what happens when reactions to Ad Astra drop next Thursday. The most rabid fanbase on the internet!

[Legion Again]

Funny weekend. I’m off by like 27% avg on the 4 openers but 4% avg on the 5 holdovers, so that actually averages out okay.

"People continue supporting our little effort. Amazing performance for our small spin-off, #1 movie world wide! Thank you everyone!" - The Rock, probably...

I mean, the natural progression would be for Butler to become President, then remake Air Force One, but R rated. "Air Force One Is Falling" - this time, Butler can say "Get off my FUCKING plane!" and then properly decapitate the villain. 

Apparently a plane sequence was cut from Angel from Fallen due to budget reasons, but Banning as president would be the best and funniest thing and in a way the most natural progression of the series.

Deserved! Such a fun film.

Once's drop is a bit harsh, about 50% from last week, way worse than Django's 24% 2nd weeks drop(minus new opening) .

 

200m OS final total at this point 

[Eric Duncan]

Does Hollywood still have a chance of crossing Django's WW numbers? I'm assuming that it should at least come close.

[The Horror of Lucas Films]

Another flop weekend, at least the music Industry is being salved this week. 

[SteveJaros]

The Lion King (2019)  becomes ....

 

The 9th film to reach $1.5B WW

 

The 9th film to reach $1B Internationally

 

The 8th film to do both*

 

Hooray for TLK!

 

 

 

* The Avengers (2012) is in the $1.5B WW club but not the $1B International club. The Fate of the Furious is in the $1B International club but not the $1.5B WW club.

It already had stronger than usual Friday's jump, lower Sats increase is reasonable. 

 

Normally lower Sat will be compensated by lower Sunday drop 

Do you think it can get 140M now with back to back drops in 30s?

[Damianport1]

Could the overseas drop be that big because the weather is great in europe right now?

Coming near 140m but 140m above is too hard unless it posts some really surprising good increase like dunkirk next week.

 

That being said, the hold so far doesn't look like some B cinemascore movie. Considering it has similar hold like Django and IB, which both received A- cinemascore   

[MovieMan89]

H&S having much better legs than I expected, but then again there's been no real competition. Will end up grossing about as much as an F9 with an organic drop off from F8 though.

I’ve seen a shit ton of commercials of that while watching Two And A Half Men. I’ve stopped caring about the VMAs, I only care to see the controversies which we don’t sadly have anymore.

Aug 16–18	4	$10,354,073	-	3,869	-	$2,676	$16,091,219	1
Aug 23–25	7	$6,365,000 (Estimate)	-38.5%	3,869	-	$1,645	$27,091,263 (Estimate)	2

 

ANGRY BIRDS 2 will get a strong Labour Day hold and could make it to low-40s dom eventually.

OS is 48 after a 10+ weekend and should do at least 70. More if there are markets to come.

 

115-120 ww looks safe which is a shit global number and close to the Dom of the first movie, but on just a 65 prod budget Sony may not loose as badly as the performance implies.
