1) Monsters University-15.2M Friday, 51M, Weekend, 175M Total That’s a small decline, about 45% from last week. Pretty excellent for the Disney toon, which has competition next week from Despicable Me 2 starting on Wednesday. 2) The Heat- 15.0M Friday, … Continue reading Weekend Box Office Projections: ‘Monsters’ leads ‘Heat’
WHITE HOUSE DOWN: CURRENT RT SCORE: 43% “All the action scenes, as with many modern Hollywood blockbusters, are seemingly edited with a Cuisinart, or that the copious CGI would barely pass muster in one of those Asylum DTV quickies.”- Keith … Continue reading What The Critics Are Saying: White House Down, The Heat
The Heat opens on Friday, and the trailers have been getting everyone excited so far. Comedy this summer has been hit and miss, with audiences AND critics. The Hangover 3 is the highest grossing of the summer, but still hasn’t … Continue reading The Heat hasn’t been reviewed by critics yet. Should we be worried?
1) Fast and Furious 6 After raking in 10.5 million yesterday, Fast 6 seems on track to easily win the weekend again, bringing in another 35 million. That’s still quite a drop from last week, and even slightly disappointing considering the lack of a fight that After Earth has put up. 2) Now You See Me Now You See Me raked in 10M from late Thursday shows and Friday. The film is dramatically overperforming, and is looking at a weekend gross of 27M, above the studio’s projection of 20M. Now You See Me also managed an A Cinemascore (somehow), which … Continue reading Friday Box Office: ‘After Earth’ flops in third
1) Fast and Furious 6- 45M weekend, 200M total The franchise has been getting pretty good buzz. With such a huge opening, it’s almost impossible to not drop at least in half, which would leave it with about 45M this weekend, probably edging out After Earth and getting to keep the crown for a second weekend. 2) After Earth- 40M weekend Will Smith is still a pretty huge draw in terms of box office. Last summer’s Men In Black 3 opened to 54M, Hancock did 62M, and I Am Legend did 77M. Granted, his box office has been slipping a … Continue reading Box Office Predictions: 5/31-6/2- ‘Earth’ battles for the top spot
So, Fast and Furious 6 made 39 million dollars on Friday, zooming past all competitors, heading for a 4 day total of around 120M. That’s huge for a franchise on its sixth leg. The Hangover managed 14.5 million in its second day of release. Star Trek: Into Darkness dipped to third with 10.2 million and Epic followed in fourth with 9.1 million (feeding on a drought of family films). Rounding out the Top 5 is Iron Man 3 which banked another 5.1 million, raising its ridiculous total to 353 million. The Great Gatsby managed to add another 3.9 million on … Continue reading Saturday Box Office Update: ‘Fast 6’ Destroys The Competition
