 Blink Twice/The Crow weekend thread
Previews: Blink Twice - 820k The Crow - 650k The Forge -600k
... not good.
... also after seeing it, Deadline calling Blink Twice a 'sex thriller' is disgusting.

 Re: Blink Twice/The Crow weekend thread
A sex thriller???? WTF lol. Well the movie sucks, but it might have some appeal to people who aren't yet tired of the "rich people think other rich people suck" genre of "horror".
The Crow is an embarassing flop as expected. Hopefully the holdovers post strong numbers to make up for it.

 Re: Blink Twice/The Crow weekend thread
The Crow deserves to flop. Screw the cunts that think any remake is A-OK.

 Re: Blink Twice/The Crow weekend thread
Always knew Crow would tank. Looke crap.
Also expected that it would be beaten by Blink Twice.

 Re: Blink Twice/The Crow weekend thread
I remember even before the film was in production it was supposed to some bizarre erotic thriller. It’s not would be surprising to me especially how solid the reviews are now

 Re: Blink Twice/The Crow weekend thread
Channing Tatum really should do 23 Jump Street at this point.
Only real interesting # this weekend is Coraline. It pulled $1.4M (-47.1%). It barely went up from Thursday's $1.3M but up to $102.8M overall domestic.
It's also done $6M internationally (original run did $49.3M) so will probably get to $160M+ by the time this re-release wraps up.

 Re: Blink Twice/The Crow weekend thread
$2.9m for Blink Twice. Pretty bad. I do think Zoe has potential as a filmmaker so hope she gets something else eventually.

Blink Twice had more potential than this.

 Re: Blink Twice/The Crow weekend thread
People still can't see that Tatum is not a movie star. He is a fucking underwear model that was in a few hits. The dude is box office poison.

 Re: Blink Twice/The Crow weekend thread
Is Alien making $100m with drops like this? I can't see it

 Re: Blink Twice/The Crow weekend thread
It should scrape by to about $105m or so. Labour Day weekend should help. Though that is a bigger than expected drop so a painful $95-97m finish also wouldn't surprise.

 Re: Blink Twice/The Crow weekend thread
Post pandemic legs have always been solid after the first weekend, never thought planet of the apes would finish over 150 and made it 171. Plus alien dropped over 25% last Saturday so still might finish under 60% drop which bodes well and the holiday being earlier by a week helps a lot for it to rebound

 Re: Blink Twice/The Crow weekend thread
Coralines 2nd weekend beating The Crow is just as funny as its first weekend beating Borderlands.

The Crow is in Universal Soldier: The Return territory. Ouch.

 Re: Blink Twice/The Crow weekend thread
Coraline re-release with an under 50% drop and up to $24M ($106M lifetime). This is going to end up maybe at $35M if they let it hang on to theaters and almost half the original's unadjusted run.
Also didn't even know it existed but The Forge did $6.6M with a budget of $5M so seems to be the winnner.

 Re: Blink Twice/The Crow weekend thread
Alien should do 110m. it did 16.2m and is at 72.6m. Next weekend is Labor day weekend with nothing worthwhile releasing as well. Overseas China is ensuring its going for something close to 400m WW. I would say its a big success for sure.

 Re: Blink Twice/The Crow weekend thread
Yeah with that number 10 million of weekdays and 10 + 4 day, it’ll be at 92 by the end of next weekend. Might be able to resurrections 112 adjusted

 Re: Blink Twice/The Crow weekend thread
Glad you're all confident it's going over $100m. Great for my draft
