Incarnadine Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I'm probably not gonna make another trip to the cinema until that Wizard of Oz flick comes out. Ugh. I can't wait until next weekend, not only will I be seeing Warm Bodies, but I also get to see Jaws, The Fifth Element, Battle Royale and Oldboy in the same theater.

Wow... lucky! Not sure about Warm Bodies, or when it comes out here. Looks decent but could probably wait til DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JarJarBinks Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 $820,000 for A Haunted House. I'm really surprised that ZDT, Django and LesMis didn't hold up better, especially given the combined performances of the openers. A side effect of nominations being announced earlier this year I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 crap holds for everything except SLP and Lincoln. Also, hopefully Hobbit has its usual strong Saturday increase and can crawl past the 300m markShould jump about 120% today.As for 300m, it might even have to wait till discount theater expansion, it seems.

Gopher Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I mentioned on the podcast how nobody a year ago could have pegged Hobbit to BARELY make 300m domestic. Most of us were saying 400m+ until September or so. It's a moneymaker for sure, but for such a tentpole event film, it kind of came and went. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 It's a flop. Ringers need to accept the facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Gittes Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I love LOTR, was disappointed by The Hobbit (not that it matters in this discussion, but just in case) but to call it a flop is completely and utterly ludicrous. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incarnadine Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 How is it a flop? It made money didnt it? Well, there are flops and there are *FLOPS!*. Even Movie 43 is going to make money since with a 6 mil budget and next to no advertising even the miniscule numbers it will put up it will end in the black, but it's hard not to say flop when talking about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webslinger Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Not terrible for Hansel & Gretel, but not that good, either. It should finish the weekend with around $15 million. Parker and Movie 43 are both duds. Parker is in line to be Jason Statham's weakest opening as a headliner, while Movie 43 failed to translate its star power into butts in seats (not that surprising considering that it looks more like torture than comedy). Silver Linings Playbook had a great hold, especially when one considers how heavily everything else dropped from last Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) Floppit is mediocrity in every way including its inflation+3D+IMax+expanding markets-fuelled boxoffice.

Fake Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Excellent for LOP. Should do 110m at least. ZDT and SLP both can reach 100m. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
