SATURDAY AM: Sony’s Bullet Train saw a $12.6M Friday which the studio believes will get it to $30M. Some see it lower between $27M-$29M, however, the thing with Sony is that they typically don’t get over their skis in their projections.

 

The CinemaScore is a B+, which interestingly enough is the same as Kingsman: Secret Service, one of the comps that was being floated around before the pic’s opening. That 2014 movie opened to $36.2M. PostTraks aren’t shabby at 82% positive, and a 63% recommend. The pic was always going to hit with the over 35 demo, and it’s clear here with close to 40% showing up. The 18-34 are at 58%, who I hear would always be slow to come out to this movie, and the hope was that there could be more of them; this despite the fact that they’re the dominant demo.

Hmm, so the weekend may be....

BT - 28
Nope - 8.2

Thor - 7.7

Minion - 7.3

Easter - 4.8

May be, if the rest of the weekend follows Friday drops, but don’t think it will. Expecting ~10% higher than those figure by Monday, except for BT, maybe ~5% more 

 

But what a dog of a 1st Friday in August, and it’s mostly downhill from here

This summer movie season has been a Minions and a Top Gun 2 away from being a complete bust. Maybe Elvis as well.

I mean...feel like this summer has been no different than any of the more recent summers? Feel like there's also a good amount more success stories than you are making out here.

I don't think it is affecting box office among regular moviegoers but I can tell you personally the fact that Bullet Train is two hours instead of 90 minutes is the reason I will be skipping it in theaters. Just seems too mindnumbing to sit in a cold theater watching that particular style of movie for that long.


It’s like 90° up here, and it feels like 100, and that actually might be the best reason for me to go see it. I’ll gladly take 2 1/2 hours with air-conditioning. 😂

 

Although I do really agree with you. I was pretty excited to take my mom to see it, and then Numbers was like it’s just OK. And now I’m like Tuesday discount? Let’s go on Tuesday discount day!!

The Black Phone and Where the Crawdads Sing have become highly profitable sleeper hits. And even though they may not have lived up to the highest of pre-release expectations, Doctor Strange/Jurassic World/Thor were all certified blockbusters too. Lightyear is probably the only movie this summer that severely underperformed in comparison to what was initially expected from it. Super-Pets as well I guess but even then the writing was on the wall.

I’m actually interested in Beast. It looks stupid and fun. I’ll also see the Dragon Ball movie. Other than those two, I’m out in August. I mean, I’ve been out since the ‘80s, but I won’t be in the theater.

I'm looking forward to Beast as well. How can anyone say no to a movie where the pitch was "Idris vs. Lion Cujo?"
