MovieGuyKyle17 Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 Exactly ten years ago...the weekend before Spider-Man: http://boxofficemojo...&wknd=17&p=.htmLooks like a lot of classics were released during that time. Changing Lanes, Murder By Numbers, Life or Something Like That?? Those are classics right there.......Never heard of these movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fmpro Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Report from Nikki "FRIDAY 1:30 PM: I’m still on vacation but can’t ignore four new movies opening in wide release and performing as expected. Universal’s comedy The Five–Year Engagement (2,936 theaters) from Judd Apatow’s banner is looking to compete with Sony/Screen Gems holdover Think Like A Man (2,014 theaters) for No. 1 with between $4M-$5M today and between $12M-$15M weekend. Sony’s Pirates! Band Of Misfits (3,358 theaters) should come in #3 with between $2.5M-$3M with a weekend close to $10M. Lionsgate’s Safe (2,266 theaters) could come in at $2.5M-$3M today with a weekend between $6.5M-$7.5M. And finally Relativity’s acquisition The Raven(2,203 theaters) is coming in between $2.5M-$3M today with a weekend between $7M-$8M. Refined numbers and full analysis tonight."

MovieGuyKyle17 Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 (edited) Nope, any time an Apatow brand fizzles, it`s bad news in my book. Best movies ever. With the exception of nobody, everyone can give themselves a big congrats. Edited April 27, 2012 by MovieGuyKyle17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilmBuff Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 You'll notice on that 2002 chart My Big Fat Greek Wedding had only made 1.5 million dollars in two weeks. Wow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cedarpoint1111 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 (edited) Pointless numbers are pointless.But I still look at them every week even though I know they are crap. Nikki's got us wrapped around her little finger. Edited April 27, 2012 by CEDAR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonytr87 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Nope, any time an Apatow brand fizzles, it`s a good news in my book. Most overrated movies ever and most overrated comedians. With the exception of Jonah and Emma, everyone else can go hang themselves.Good god you're a horrible person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Man this weekend is gonna be the first of the year to really be significantly down from the same last year. Fast Five opened this weekend last year, so it's gonna be a bloodbath this weekend compared to last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockNrollaDIM Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Lol. Hasn't Nikki been on vacation forums a month? Yet she's always working. With such pitiful estimates for openers maybe THG can reclaim #1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLK Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 I have THG making about 10.5 without IMAX. I think IMAX can add another 0.5-1.0 million so 11-12 million seems like its likely total for this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be nuts if it went back to #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 What about Think Like a Man? It needs to collapse then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLK Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 I think #3 is as high as it will go. T5YE and TLAM should both do over 14 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
