ChD Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Les Miserables, This is 40 and Promised Land all fell down from estimates. Promised Land fell the most with around 260k. Wondering if Django will stay over 20M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChD Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) WOM kicking in or big game happened on Sunday?I honestly hope it's the first thing, because I hardly think there was a game since it was the only movie that dropped so hard. I don't think that only horror fans go to games (or stay home to watch them for that matter). Edited January 7, 2013 by ChD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elessar Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Why does Hobbit drop more on Sunday than stuff like Django? Isn't it supposed to be a family movie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChD Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Why does Hobbit drop more on Sunday than stuff like Django? Isn't it supposed to be a family movie?If I'm not wrong, school started today (Monday) in the US so I don't think kids really had time to go to the movies... Probably the Hobbit didn't make much money from late screenings (Past 6-7PM), while Django probably did since it's R rated and only adults go to watch it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChD Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Football killed it.Are you sure? I mean it's strange that it's the only movie to drop so much from Estimates...Is it possible that the other studios took that in consideration when they sent estimates in and Lionsgate just ignored it?

Deep Wang Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Django!!!!That ended up a lot closer race for first than they were expecting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted January 7, 2013 Founder / Operator Share Posted January 7, 2013 But don't family movies have good Sundays, due to strong matinees?Sometimes, yes. But considering a movie like Hobbit reaches a wider audience than Django, that also means it stands to lose more viewers (especially since football is a family event too). Django also pulls more from the "awards" crowd which is typically less volatile when it comes to being affected by sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
