Cooper Legion Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 (edited) 12 would be meh, actuals should be more 13-14 though I’d guess Edit: and immediately contradicted by finale mtc1 run 😛 Maybe 12.5-29-37-26 //104.5 Edited September 6 by Cooper Legion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric the Marxist Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 *whispers* 100M still seems like a super good opening for Beetlejuice imo and I don’t get the disappointment. 11 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krissykins Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 $100m+ for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is excellent. To think how much of a unique gamble the original was back in the 80s and now the sequel is a blockbuster. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoguy Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 (edited) Beetlejuice will be hitting the magic $100M OW. That's twice as big as Ghostbusters Afterlife, which only managed $44M OW. Cinemas are saved again. Edited September 6 by Mojoguy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's just say the truth. Whenever a trade (Deadline, Variety, THR, etc.) puts out their projections and a movie misses it by the slightest, then it's immediately classified as a disappointment. Doesn't even matter if it has outstanding legs afterwards. Just the fact that it missed original tracking projections is enough to overshadow any amount of money that it does after three days. Which is ironic because the trades were projecting $100M-$110M for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice and it's looking like it will land pretty comfortably in that range. So like you, where is the massive disappointment coming from? I guess because it probably won't beat the September opening weekend record? Still, that's not a good excuse to label a $100M+ debut for a Beetlejuice legacy sequel "disappointing." Edited September 6 by Ryan C 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avatree Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 (edited) Wow. 100M opening is crazy for a film I’ve never heard anyone talk about or reference. I thought this would open to like 40M. Edited September 6 by Avatree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFanaticGuy34 Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 (edited) Do you guys think Beetlejuice 2 has an optimistic shot at overtaking Alice in Wonderland for the biggest OW for a Tim Burton film or no? That one opened at $116M back in March 2010. 👩🏻💼🙆🏻♀️ Edited September 6 by MrFanaticGuy34 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
