 Early Friday #s Pirates- 23-25, 65 FSS/75-80 FSSM Baywatch-6.5-7.5 23-24 FSSM 27-29 TFSSM Guardians- 19 FSS/24 FSSM Alien-13-14 FSS/17 FSSM http://deadline.com/2017/05/pirates-of- ... 202102887/I'd say anything over 20m for Pirates is solid. That would be a bit of a rebound for Baywatch. Decent hold for Guardians and expectedly shitty for Alien.

Re: Early Friday #s Both really, really bad numbers.
We had already started lowering our numbers this week due to tracking, so yes, Pirates is inline with that...
But man, that's a bad number. Could miss $150 mil total with that.

Re: Early Friday #s Well if it hits 80 4 day and followed Tomorrowland with that it makes 177m total. Alice 2 181m total. Prince of Persia 191 total.
It was never going to do more than the last. And with how Depp's brand has fallen, I'd say a 65-70m opening is not dreadful.

Re: Early Friday #s That seems about what I expected for Pirates. If it manages solid business overseas it's not too bad.

Re: Early Friday #s None of those comparisons made over $43 mil for their 4-day. I don't know if those are valid...

Re: Early Friday #s It just seems like it's going to have a ton of competition. And it will probably be the worst of the options until Transformers.

Yeah, and a 2.2ish 4 day multiple is already poor. Memorial Day openers are typically frontloaded regardless of the competition. I don't think the competition is worse than any other year.

Re: Early Friday #s Baywatch is not doing that much it should be less than GotG2. Pirates would surely miss $200m with that opening

Re: Early Friday #s Superman -> Superman 4
Though at least Superman 4 was a low budget feature essentially sent out to die.

Re: Early Friday #s Rth has an update: Quote: Fri looking
POTC2 22.6,BW 5.6,GOTG2 4.9 Pirates will likely miss $60M for the 3-day by a million or two. Baywatch is tanking hard. It's pretty much following The Hangover Part 3's pattern, which would put it a little under $25M for the 5-day. If it then follows its legs, Baywatch will close with ~$45M domestically.

Re: Early Friday #s deadline also updated its projections to $62.3M over 3-days and $76.3M. Baywatch isn’t bailing out Paramount after a atrocious stateside 2017 that includes xXx: The Return of Xander Cage, Monster Trucks, Rings and Ghost in the Shell. Tracking had this movie over 5 days in the $40M range, maybe even hitting $50M, and this Dwayne Johnson-Zac Efron combo is going to come in with $26.1M, just a tad higher than the three-day for Neighbors 2:Sorority Rising ($21.8M opening/$55.4M domestic). http://deadline.com/2017/05/pirates-of- ... 202102887/

Re: Early Friday #s Magnus wrote: Kind ignorant insane that a Pirates film is gonna open on a Friday and get below 25m. Has a franchise that set a OW record even fallen this low? Even Amazing Spider-Man 2, Batman/Robin, Jurassic Park 3, etc. are going to have relatively bigger openings. This won't even do 30% of the franchises peak admissions. Jaws vs Jaws 4?

Re: Early Friday #s Magnus wrote: Yeah I totally forgot about Superman 4, Jaws, etc.
Still, in terms of modern day record breaking franchises over the last 25 years, this is a really bad drop off. But is it a surprise really? The franchise got its best reception with the first movie and DMC built on that. But from DMC onwards the franchise never really struck the same good will either from professional critics (that were never really with the franchise anyway) or the general audience that found much more hip and cool things to look forward to. Also this is a franchise that like a lot of others isn't primarily targeted for US audiences anymore because of the explosions in the overseas market that eats it up. So $180m+ total for PotC5 in the US is pretty good despite the fact it's nowhere close to franchise's peak. It will definitely go over $800m WW and maybe if China really goes for it it might make it to $1b, so Disney for sure is not upset at somewhat underwhelming domestic take and it definitely won't change things for movie #6 (and it seem people actually like this sequel as it got A- CinemaScore so it might not bleed much next time).

Re: Early Friday #s Inexplicable hold for Everything, Everything. Wonder why it didn't drop like Paper Towns? Seems like it would have been frontloaded.
