Re: Thursday #'s/Previews So it's a flop but it will end the reign of Wakanda and we can look forward to April releases.
I need to hit up Unsane and maybe ICOI this weekend. Gotta see the fuss.

Re: Thursday #'s/Previews The original did $3.6 million in Thursday previews.
Same ratio gives it $24.3 million for the weekend. So probably $19 - $23 million, I'd guess?

Re: Thursday #'s/Previews I'm really confused as to why Pacific Rim 2 isn't a Chinese co-production. Wasn't it essentially made for that market? Not sure I understand Legendary's thinking there.

Re: Thursday #'s/Previews Magnus wrote: given the spring/summer difference, I think it can mimic its ratio even though previews are more frontloaded today then they were when the first one came.
The film will join Dear John as random films that dethroned long running champions. When I think of this, I think Lost In Space.

Re: Thursday #'s/Previews School's out here and I guess kids opted to ride bikes instead. Gnomes looking pitiful.

Re: Thursday #'s/Previews Films that never had a later film beat their time at #1 for the weekend:
Titanic, 15
Avatar, 7
Black Panther, 5
Pretty exclusive club - Presumably it will only get harder to make this list as the blockbuster season ever expands.

Re: Thursday #'s/Previews That almost same as Tomb Raider from last week so I think $23m-$24m OW for PRU. I was thinking lower than that given the lack of buzz, so its not entirely bad.
Surprised Unsane made $300K, could have a decent OW based on this.

You forgot The Sixth Sense which (while not a blockbuster) did it after Titanic and before Avatar. Surprisingly its 5th and 6th weekend will be very close to BP's, ofcourse the opening of TSS was "slightly" lower

Not sure I understand Legendary's thinking there. Legendary is owned by Wanda, so it will pretty much be afforded the same benefits as a co-production.

Re: Thursday #'s/Previews Hmm true regardless I can't think PRU will do well in China again. Its not Tranformers and that series waning might have negative effect on PR.
