Weekend (8/10-12/12) Estimates: Bourne Legacy 40.3M; Campaign 27.4M; Hope Springs 15.6M

[Hiccup]

Hopes Spring could end around 55M

[Jack Nevada]

lol wasn't Hope Springs supposed to The Help of 2012?

[Olive]

How much is TDKR looking to make

450 - 460M

[John Marston]

I meant this weekend

[FTF]

I meant this weekend

$19-20m

[Gopher]

19.5-20.1. I'll go with 19.8.

In the end, just an okay opening for Bourne............

Saw The Campaign and Hope Springs last night.Loved The Campaign, I believe its the best comedy of the year. Its cartoon-ish ways really mashed up well with the real life part. Hope Springs even with its great acting and chemistry between the 3 leads, the movie was just decent.

lol wasn't Hope Springs supposed to The Help of 2012?

Yep but the buzz couldn't match that due to this movie being skewed older like "best exotic marigold hotel". I guess the demographic under 40 had no interest with it unlike The Help.

that would be a shitty drop for TDKR compared to TDK

[Fake]

All numbers up yet?

[rockNrollaDIM]

14/40 is much closer to where I expected it. Salt did something around 13/36 and I thought that was a good base comparison.

IA4 looking at sub-20% drop!Should manage 160m in the end. Nice recovery after the weak start.

Would be nice if this thread wasn't polluted with long rants about Whitney Houston.

Ha yeah I totally agree. Also, definitely need a thread title change to $14m for TBL and so on.

[wboxoffice]

I tried many times to change the subject but someone always comes right back many pages later and insults Whitney.Here, I'll try gain, let's stop talking about Whitney and wait until next weekend as her movie will be released.

So... Bourne Legacy will be lucky to cross 40M OW with 135M budget and Bourne Identity with inflation made 37M with 60M budget, right?

[redfirebird2008]

Bourne won't reach 40.

[Jack Nevada]

Next week I will hopefully have time to catch up with some movies out now- Ted, Madagascar 3, a finnish movie..

Well for one, TDK didn't go up against three decent sized openers in its 4th weekend. A 45% drop is fine. It's been obvious that TDKR is not going to have the same kind of drops like TDK did, so I'm not sure what the problem is here. Edited August 11, 2012 by MrPink
