Fanboy Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 So 50M > PA5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichWS Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 I wonder if there will be a PA5 still? Or if it will skip a year? I think skipping a year might be a nice idea actually.If they kept Saw going till number 7, there's no reason they should quit on this now. They're still too profitable.

lab276 Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Any other numbers? Hopefully holdovers are doing well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackO Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Glad Nikke agrees with Variety's numbers. Could have been worse for PA4. Also good for Alex Cross not bombing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franchise is going in completely different direction. the studio will begin production on a spinoff from the series, "The Oxnard Tapes." That film will be cast with Latino actors and aimed even more directly at that audience, although the spinoff will be largely in English. "They really love supernatural stories," Jason Blum, a producer on all four "Paranormal Activity" films, said of the Latino audience for the films. http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/movies/moviesnow/la-et-mn-paranormal-activity-4-latino-20121018,0,1252636.story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gopher Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Wow. Did Sinister really saturate the horror market? This will be the first PA movie that isn't out of the red before the end of opening weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Wow. Did Sinister really saturate the horror market?

A Marvel Fanboy Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 PA4 only costed 5M.PA5 of course will happen no matter what. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcalcagn Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Paramount would be dumb to NOT make a Paranormal Activity 5; even if the next one makes $25M or so for its opening weekend, that's STILL five times the budget. Easiest $10M+ in three days. It's surprising that it had a little bit more of a dropoff than most of us anticipated, but considering that a well-reviewed (although not well-received) horror film the week before took its thunder, it did pretty fine.

#ED Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 With Marketing and all, possibly 20M total? It will profit regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cedarpoint1111 Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Like 30m with marketing I think. Anyway, 17m Friday is still good enough for high 30s OW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Toymaker Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 I've been reading some of the user reviews and many of the complaints I'm seeing come off as grasping and reaching to find something to complain about for the sake of complaining, practically overthinking the film.. Guess I'll find out sunday when I see this, but cannot imagine that it's THAT bad like some of the reviews make it out to be.. What film? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Toymaker Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Yeah, people hating on a fourth in a series for no reason other than it being a fourth in a series is lame, but it happens all too often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olive Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Paranormal Activity 4 (3,412 theaters) will scare up around $15M Friday for a $34M weekend. That’s less than Hollywood estimates for the Jason Blum pic, and less than PA2‘s hefty debut of $40.7M and way less than PA3‘s even huger release of $52.6M. It only received a ”C’ CinemaScore from audiences which wiill hurt word of mouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
