Holy crap that is terrible for Wimpy. Talk about a shocker.

[MovieMan89]

Whoa how did Wimpy decrease on Sat? That's truly shocking and awful for it. Is early WOM bad?

That's why I said "I'd kill." I know it won't happen.

Ted crosses 200m with a little bit still left in the tank. Awesome!

Ted is the 11th R rated movie to cross 200m. 5 of those 11 are comedies.

Seriously? What's the highest grossing R rated comedy? Hangover? Edited August 5, 2012 by ECSTASY

Matrix Reloaded.

Wimpy has always been somewhat frontloaded so the drop doesn't seem 'that' shocking.

First had a 19% Sat increase, 2nd had a 40% one. So the fact that it dropped is very surprising.

Both of which were March releases.

I guess. I still wouldn't exactly call the first two "frontloaded" as far as their OD goes.

I wouldn't say they were either but both had short runs, the 2nd in particular. The Saturday could have been better but some of the loss will be mitigated over the week days.

Hangover 1 and 2. Won't top either of those but will pass #3 Wedding Crashers at 207m

Beverly Hills Cop is #3, which it won't pass either.

Why, yes.

Wait. I must be looking at the wrong chart on BOM.http://boxofficemojo.com/genres/chart/?id=r-ratedcomedy.htm

Yeah, you're just looking at "R Rated Youth" comedies not all R comedies (you'll notice big R comedies like Bridesmaids and Pretty Woman aren't on that chart either). BOM doesn't seem to have a chart for that. Here's the R chart though.http://boxofficemojo...m?page=R&p=.htm Edited August 5, 2012 by MovieMan89

Ah thanks! Wedding Crashers is at 209m. Still Ted should pass that. But yeah, it won't touch BH Cop and the Hangovers.
