Recommended Posts

SATURDAY PM/SUNDAY AM, 5TH UPDATE: Overall the weekend looks to be down around -11% from last year which may make Hollywood nervous going into the all-important summer movie season starting in May after a super-heated 2012 first quarter. The difference in this weekend’s close finishes were a matter of MPAA ratings and theater counts. Lionsgate’s PG-13 The Hunger Gamesscored the most theaters this weekend and beat the competition for the 4th straight weekend. Fox received its hoped-for Friday and Saturday family fare matinee bumps for the Farrelly Brothers’ PG The Three Stooges, which played in more runs than Lionsgate’s R-rated The Cabin In The Woods. Interesting to note that both Stooges and Cabin were greenlighted by then MGM production chief Mary Parent — and then taken over by other studios when MGM couldn’t handle its debt load. CinemaScores were as follows: Fox’s The Three Stooges ‘B-’ (‘A’ from audiences under 18, ‘C’ from 25 and older), Lionsgate’s The Cabin In The Woods ‘C’ (‘D+’ from females), FilmDistrict’s Lockout ‘B-’. Interesting how the Stooges reviews were better than expected, especially from top-end critics who found genius in that silliness. But not as good as Joss Whedon’s much anticipated horror pic which received truly stellar reviews, including 93% positive on Rotten Tomatoes.

Absolutely FANTASTIC for THG. It should reach 22m easily if that holds! :D :D :D

Another good weekend. That's a great hold for Titanic. The anniversary must have given it quite the boost. Should be good for 60m domestic, and over 300m WW, which is unbelievable for a re-release.

I don't think the 14th boosted it a lot if at all, the FRI / SAT increases are nothing out of the ordinary. Could go up to $70m DOM if it doesn't collapse in the coming two weeks.

Wow 21JS is looking to end with about $140m - it's sorts of just been overshadowed almost it's entire run!

Who would have know it would do so well? Too bad it's not getting released in Finland, it looks hilarious.. :(
