EDIT: This is just madness lol we're gonna get another 100 Saw films in 10 years now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The latest consensus seemed like 15-20M, but before that was looking like 25-30M. So I'm really not sure where it's going to land. Thursday previews will give us a good idea.

Hopfully it will be like Evil Dead Rise which rose above its predictions. I just feel it's not going to do well though unfortunately.

I just feel it's not going to do well though unfortunately. I still feel like there is a lot of hype around Saw X, but yeah a few weeks ago I thought it would do 30+, as it got closer I thought 25-30M. And last few days I've felt a bit worrisome. Still everything I've seen in the numbers thread has shown 2.5-3M in previews for Saw X, but then the MTC numbers showed much worse. I don't even really understand MTC or how valuable it is but most seem to believe that's the most accurate take. Still I'm really hoping the hype from the good reviews can give it a bit of a push. I would be really sad to see one of the best Saw films, bomb and end the franchise. Kevin Greutert (Director) REALLY deserves this to be a success. He did Saw VI which sadly flopped and then Saw VII was just a mess. For him to come back to do another incredibly success Saw movie to bomb would really suck.

I wouldn't say Saw 6 flopped at all. $11M budget and made $70M. He got screwed really badly for Saw 7 though. Getting that paranormal activity film stripped from him because of studio politics and pettiness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw 6 was definitely a flop, opening to less than half of your proceeding chapter and not hitting a 2x is very very bad. Which is a shame as its great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krissykins Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Saw opened at #3 Saw VI was #2 The rest of the franchise all opened at #1. Maybe Saw is destined to have its best films miss the top spot and be the lowest grossers of the franchise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krissykins Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Just noticed The Creator has fallen to 69% Did anyone guess that Saw X and Paw Patrol would have better reviews than The Creator? It’s fun to see. Seeing Saw X at 20.50 tomorrow night in a huge room. Excited. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That it's still as high as 83% after 47 reviews and with the rottens still being few and far between is very promising, but god damn that would be next level wild for this.

Blaze Heatnix Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Saw X possibly being fresh on RT is the biggest twist of th entire franchise! XD 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoxOfficeZ Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 I actually enjoyed it to my surprise. It's quite a different dynamic from the other typical Saw films but def feels refreshing. Performances were great and the pacing was fast. Remember to stay for the credits. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 A 10th Saw film sitting at 84% on RT feels alternate multiverse level. Several of these movies have pulled sub 20% RTs, never mind even fresh 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eman92 Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 Just got back from seeing it. Such a tonally different and interesting movie from the past sequels. I really loved it, hope you all get a chance to see it this weekend. You're in for a very fun ride! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asyulus Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 (edited) Will this beat The Nun II OW? I don’t see Paw Patrol 2 hurting this box office wise at all because it’s aimed entirely at children demographics. So in simple terms, kids will watch the former; all adults 18+ will flock this tenthquel. And The Creator is targeted at teens based on the rating.

Sadly from the early reporting were getting it doesn't look like it. Looks like at best it'll do 20M OW, but most likely fall between 18-20M. It would need a HUGE uptick on Friday/Saturday sales to pull off something like 25M. Unless early reporting is wrong, but looks like previews will be 1.6-1.8M which would theoretically mean around 18M OW, but it could maybe squeeze a little more out of it with the critical reception its gotten. I think the more important thing will be its legs, but that also seems like it may be in trouble because of Exorcist next week and then Taylor Swift will take up sooooo many theaters after that. But we'll see. I'm really hoping I'm wrong and this movie somehow does like 23-25M OW and can do like 55M domestically. Just doesn't seem like it at the moment 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
