Was it because the old cast was coming back? Partly that, plus Scream 2 and 3 were gigantic horror OWs for their time. Going below them never seemed like a consideration. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchumacherFTW Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Best I can find is the below deadline article, though it states tracking was around mid 20s the week of release https://deadline.com/2011/04/first-box-office-rio-bird-winning-intl-battle-with-hop-123287/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then it did $19.1m in the estimate. Another positive for this film, adding to what Eric already said is: Weinstein were a mess at the time and not marketing films properly in 2011. Also, Scream 4 seems to have really caught on with the generation since, it certainly found its audience over the years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krissykins Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 What were those two old tracking sources we had in the BOM Forum days? I’m sure one was RS (?) and the other began with M? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddddeeee Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Dewey can go tbh. Maybe it can bring Sid and Gale closer together and they can lead a Paramount+ series in which they lead a neighbourhood watch and solve petty crime in Woodsboro. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
