Re: Early Friday Projections Ouch at God's Not Dead. He has risen but the franchise is done.

Re: Early Friday Projections Not awful but not great for RP1. It will need good legs and big international numbers ($350m+) to break even.

Re: Early Friday Projections Haha what? Sorry that your expectations were blown way out of proportion, but $40m 3-day is excellent for it. It has no stars and it is 140 minute sci-fi VR movie ... that's a hard sell.

Re: Early Friday Projections 50m+ over 4 days will be quite good. It's harder than ever for an original film to make any traction these days so good effort.

Re: Early Friday Projections Pacific Rim Uprising is an utter failure. It will make less than the first in China as well
does PRU end with a hook for another sequel? That would be pretty unfortunate

Re: Early Friday Projections Black Panther is down only 7.9% from last week, and its average actually increased... I wonder just how well it will do over the weekend. It's not a religious movie, but does appeal to a largely religious demographic.

Re: Early Friday Projections I was hoping for a bigger bump on Good Friday. So the movie performed above its massively deflated expectations, but still won't be a huge hit.

Re: Early Friday Projections Ready Player One's Friday was up 84% from its true Thursday ($8.25m). Quite good for a new release. I also guess it has strong appeal to families.

Re: Early Friday Projections Ready Player One is an odd film in regard to family appeal. I wonder how parents who bring smaller children will react to, say, the re-creation of the old-crone-in-the-bathtub scene in The Shining (albeit with Austin Powers-style obscured nudity) . _________________   1.

Re: Early Friday Projections Pure Flix needs to regroup. They are in disarray right now. GND3 should have opened around $5m on Easter Weekend.

Re: Early Friday Projections Even without options I just feel GND3 would not have done well. The last one already saw a major decline which said the audience have moved on.

Re: Early Friday Projections Holy shit at Unsane's drop this weekend.  Is it a typo on Box Office Mojo? 96 percent?! _________________1. The Lost City of Z - 2. A Cure for Wellness - 3.

Re: Early Friday Projections Jack Sparrow wrote: Even without options I just feel GND3 would not have done well. The last one already saw a major decline which said the audience have moved on. Yeah but it probably could have opened to 5 Million over this weekend if it were the sole option for this audience.

Re: Early Friday Projections But I think anywhere else other than this weekend it would have possibly done the same OW. Even if they have opened it earlier I don't think the movie had enough pull to take away buzz from ICOI.

Re: Early Friday Projections We broke one record this weekend...
Biggest Second Weekend Drops:
1 Unsane $3,762,145 -96.2% $144,171 1,929 $6,826,486 3/23/18
Beating Collide's record from last year at -88.5%. Unsane didn't just sneak past, they destroyed the previous record. Maybe this is just a typo though otherwise its unprecedented to see a drop like this...
