Re: Weekend Actuals
Comparing Crazy Rich Asians to The Help:
The Help Wed: $5,539,917 Thu: $4,333,909 (-21.8%) Fri: $7,644,608 (+76.4%) Sat: $9,996,887 (+30.8%) Sun: $8,403,095 (-15.9%)
Crazy Rich Asians Wed: $5.01 Thu: $3.75 (-28%) Fri: $7.26 (+93%) Sat: $10.28 (+42%) Sun: $8.97 (-13%)
It's actually doing better now despite opening lower on Wednesday. This might have monster legs.

Re: Weekend Actuals
I knew it would do great on the weekend. With great WOM and it being a "date" movie, it should have great weekend holds.

Re: Weekend Actuals
Wow, didn't expect that IM. Was thinking it would be frontloaded.

Plus it's a best-selling book. I don’t think most book adaptations are front loaded. Really only popular YA novels. Gone Girl was based on a best selling book and incredibly leggy.

Re: Weekend Actuals
Great increase for CRA. Looks like The Help/We're The Millers will be a pretty close comparison after all.

Re: Weekend Actuals
Looking very good for a $20m+ second weekend. And you never know, may just become another There's Something about Mary or The Sixth Sense.

Re: Weekend Actuals
A 3.65 Friday to weekend multiplier is fantastic in the summer time.
What especially helps it over The Help is that the long weekend is in weekend 3 vs 4 so could potentially see three two unreal weekends or even a weekend increase. Not going to count out $200 m + at this stage.

Re: Weekend Actuals
It'll run out of audience before it reaches $100m. It'll need to rely on repeat viewings, by which time other films will take over the wishy-washy mind of CRA's target audience.

Re: Weekend Actuals
Crazy Rich Asians doesn't have anything even resembling direct competition until what, Little Women? The next couple months are leftover action and sci-fi movies, and a few horror suspense, which will be grabbing younger viewers as CRA's audience ages up.

Re: Weekend Actuals
I don't think CRA will do as bad as Algren is suggesting but some of these predictions of it getting one of a type of run are still baseless. You have to remember that it fall in the vicinity of many predictions albeit it started slow. Plus the summer weekdays are getting over. This will make $100m now given its weekend IM but it's not getting past $150m with that opening.
