redfirebird2008 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 The Watch should do really well judging from the reaction of audiences whenever its trailer is played.Trailer reactions for comedies don't mean shit. The Change Up received some of the best trailer reactions I've seen in a theater, and the film flopped hard when it was finally released. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#ED Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) Tomorrows number can hopefully stay above 15M....... Edited July 25, 2012 by EaZze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAR Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Doesn't the plot line of the Watch concern an alien invasion? If so, I haven't seen that referenced in any of the ads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poseidon Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 To be honest, those drops for "TDKR" are just ordinary, nothing special, nothing to be excited about and that's got nothing to do with what happened on friday. The weekend was deflated, yes. But now we've got ordinary drops, coming off a deflated weekend and that's not a good sign for legs, unfortunately.

I was convinced that was looking at $100m+, easily.Hope it's the same situation for The Watch! This summer's comedies aren't up to par. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lab276 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) Tomorrows number can hopefully stay above 15%.......It won't, stronger Tuesday hold = bigger Wednesday drop. 20% would be the best possible drop.

JCS Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Decent drop and I hope the Wednesday drop is not too severe so around 5-8%.Will take TDKR 6 days to reach $200M which is rather slow but it is all about the LEGS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#ED Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 The Watch will earn less than $30M this weekend and TDKR is headed towards a $55-$65M weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
friendofnarnia Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Fairly underwhelming performance so far. I'm hoping that someday soon TDKR will impress me in some way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackO Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Good drop for TDK but not mindblowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Even though the film is having a boring run so far, I do like the fact that WB gave us the IMAX number for Monday. Hopefully they do the same for Tuesday and all other weekdays going forward. Would be cool to be able to follow a film's IMAX total day by day instead of just finding out the opening weekend total and then the final total weeks later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#ED Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 So basically if this movie maintains this decent run during the week, it means it will have a bad 2nd weekend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junkshop36 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Decent drop. Wednsday drop will probably be in the 20-23% range, though I hope for slightly better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moviefanatic Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 This weekend number will be interesting. If it's near THG second weekend number then this may barely pass that movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
