TLK Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 He's in a solid spot, but I don't think he's the frontrunner at the moment (or even the runner-up) and I don't think that would change just because he decides to run for office.BTW, UK bookmakers have Affleck running second as of right now with Spielberg the favorite.http://www.easyodds.com/sports-betting/tv-and-awards-betting/awards/oscars/outright/best-director.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ball Lightning Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Why is TH getting more cinemas when many were empty OW?$20,000 PTA is hardly emtpy. That would be Killing Them Softly with a $700 PTA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sims Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Expanding Christmas day for SLP is idiotic against Les Mis and Django. They should have expanded it two weeks ago, but since they didn't, waiting until Oscar nominations would have made more sense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sims Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I'm also going to go ahead and officially declare that TH1 is having bad weekdays. These are not the drops of a leggy film with stellar WOM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accursed Arachnid!™ Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Who the hell is offering a presidential nom for Affleck? Someone took my comment a bit too literally. Hey, Reagan had his Bedtime for Bonzo... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are not the drops of a leggy film with stellar WOM. Totally disagree. Pre-holiday December weekdays are not great in general. NARNIA fell 73%, 12.5%, and 12.9% on its first three weekdays, for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The full wide release will most likely come after Oscar noms and the same weekend JLaw hosts SNL. Secondly, Django isn't the same demographic. Les Mis... it is a bit but people either like musicals or they don't. There are a lot of people that have been waiting for SLP to come to their area and this will only appease some of them. The full release is the one that will matter the most. Not this one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't have a sense of long-term legs yet. Unless you mean that it won't get to $350-400m now, which of course it won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dashrendar44 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 (edited) I remember it well because it had the 10 minute TDK preview in IMAX. I went to it just for that reason. I only remembered it because I was visiting Mall Of America that christmas and I had time to chill between two rollercoaster rides. I almost felt asleep. Pop Corn was good, that's all I can recall.

Jake Gittes Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 ZDT outgrossed Killing Them Softly in 1,422 less theaters :lol: Probably has something to do with KTS being near its fourth week of release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elessar Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 (edited) These are my projections for where The Hobbit will finish depending on the Friday number:10M - 260M11M - 275M12M - 295M13M - 315M14M - 335M15M - 360MSo $275m it is. I doubt Hobbit is gonna increase more than IAL. Dailies are already somewhat inflated, friday increases are gonna be rather low.

Gopher Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Wouldn't be surprised to see SLP do better than Guilt Trip or even This is 40 over the holidays. Is this Disney's lowest OD ever for a wide release? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If TH has so-so drops next week then it'll be concerning. But I still say low 300s is happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
