I was actually hoping Possession will do Devil Inside numbers but this is good enough, the trailer was appealing enough for horror fans

[fmpro]

Pretty disappointing for TA. :angry:

Any word on a new credit scene?

Official Friday domestic estimate: $365K for MARVEL'S THE AVENGERS from 1,705 locations. Domestic cume = $618.2 million.

Not bad. It did more than doubled its past week's take in one day. Wish it had done more but let's see what the Saturday bump is like. If its like Memorial Day weekend probably looking around 1.8?

Damn the Possession blew up.

[Gopher]

TDKR had a very good hold. Down -29% from last Friday. Best in the top 10 (save Obama's expansion).

I'm actually feeling bad for The Oogieloves, $280 average is laughable, we all should see this movie to prevent the studio to go bankrupt Anyway, good opening for The Possession.

[CJohn]

The Possession's OD is bigger than every OW of last week new movies. That says something.

[Jack Nevada]

So how much is Possession making this weekend?

I would say, 14M 3-day, 16M 4-day. It may go higher, if it behaves like Shark Night 3D last year. Edited September 1, 2012 by CJohn

$20-22 million, best case scenario. That puts it on path with Apollo 18's and Shark Night 3D's Labor Day pattern. But word of mouth on Possession looks like its tanking pretty quickly...

[Mango]

Someone should make an "Amazing Spider-Man dollar theater release over Oogieloves 4-day" club just for fun.

[Dragon]

Get that money Possession

I contributed to Brave and The Avengers last night with my double feature showing at the drive in theatre last night for my bday. Great double for me!

Was there a new credit scene with TA?

glad to hear that

[The Dark Alfred]

So can the Oogiloves challenge Delgo for the worst wide opening (2000+ theatres) ever?

It has a B Cinemascore, so that's better than Apollo 18 and Shark Night 3D if I recall correctly. For a horror film, that seems pretty decent to me actually. Not the only metric to use of course.

Was there a new credit scene with TA?

No. Same as the one I saw the first couple times.
