MightyDargon Posted April 19 Author Share Posted April 19 3 minutes ago, ThomasNicole said: They wouldn’t come out to support this movie even if she didn’t comment anything lol, look at how disappointing every non-blockbuster movie is performing these days Still stupid to fire her from Scream, people clearly loved her and Jenna on that franchise. Sadly, in the country of free speech telling the truth is a horrible crime apparently and should be punished even if it derails a stablished rebrand. I mean it is Paramount, the studio that thinks people want Whedon style quip dialogue in a giant fighting robot movie. It's the kind of brilliance that brought them to the edge of the reaper's scythe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melissa Berrera shouldn’t have been fired for her opinions but she is a bland actress and her leaving Scream is no loss acting talent wise and won’t effect the box office of 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flopped Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 33 minutes ago, Krissykins said: That’s ok for Abigail, hopefully it’s not frontloaded and gets $11-12m+ for the weekend. Considering Universal only seemingly started promoting it this week, hopefully the great reviews will carry it. Should be certified soon at 83%. I've seen billboards and bus ads for weeks now.

We'll see if $5 helps Challengers break the teens level next week... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildphantom Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 I thought Abigail had breakout written all over it when the first trailer dropped. Yet I’d forgotten it was even coming out this weekend until recently. Uni really haven’t ramped this up at all. Surprising considering the critical reception it’s had. They should have screened this weeks ago and got the hype rolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyB Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Lionsgate is calling their all-in previews for Guy Ritchie’s The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare at $1.45M, however that includes around $600K in advance shows from last weekend in addition to Thursday’s cash. Which means Universal’s Radio Silence vampire movie, Abigail, won Thursday previews with $1M. Meanwhile, Sony Crunchyroll’s anime movie Spy x Family Code: White did $670K from shows that began at 4PM. The weekend crown is expected to be a game of rock, paper, scissors between Abigail and A24’s second weekend of Civil War at about $12M+ apiece. Civil War led Thursday among pics in regular release with $1.6M, -14% from Wednesday, for a first week of $33.1M at 3,838 theaters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keysersoze123 Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Ministry did not over index. I was concerned when @DAJK said it did not even release in his area(Vancouver?). It had a limited preview release as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AniNate Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 It's only at that specific theater, it's been on life support ever since the mall near it shut down, not a whole lot of reason to visit the area otherwise now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
