Re: Weekend Box Office 12/11-13/09.
Avatar will slay next weekend based on nothing super hot being out now. Blind Side and NM are both fading enough that I think Avatar can do $65-75m opening.

Re: Weekend Box Office 12/11-13/09.
wow, how sad and front loaded New Moon was. I mean, it made what 145 million opening weekend and a month later its at 266, it will be very lucky to get to 300 mil.

Yeah, real sad for Summit. ;) |
Re: Weekend Box Office 12/11-13/09.
well, here at least. yeah i know its made a shit load of money, but when their fans (and certain insiders that are also fans), thought it would be the biggest movie of the year, it hasn't lived up to their expectations. Granted yes, it only needs about 10 million, but i would love it if the Hangeover actually had a better final number in the states

Re: Weekend Box Office 12/11-13/09.
I'm thrilled to see The Princess and the Frog open so strongly. I hope it has legs (insert terrible 'frog leg' joke here).

Re: Weekend Box Office 12/11-13/09.
Home on the Range made $13,880,771 on its opening weekend.
Brother Bear made $19,404,492. Treasure Planet made $12,083,248. It's not that impressive of a take but I'm sure Disney is pretty happy with it. It should do well during the holidays. |
Re: Weekend Box Office 12/11-13/09.
What are the top movies of the year. Even if New Moon isn't the #1, its right up there with the top ones. Like it or hate it, it has done crazy business. A month later and has only dropped to #4 for the week. I'm pretty sure it will hit $300M before its done.
|
Re: Weekend Box Office 12/11-13/09.
New Moon is #5 but is the only one of the top 5 still in theaters. It'll definitely at least take the #4 spot.
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen: $402 mil Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince: $302 mil Up: $293 mil The Hangover: $277 mil New Moon: $267 mil |

$28m doesn't seem as strong as I would have thought.

Re: Weekend Box Office 12/11-13/09.
Did PATF cost any more than those other hand-drawn Disney flicks or did they just decide to make a good one?
|
Re: Weekend Box Office 12/11-13/09.
PATF estimated budget: $105 million
it's got a long ways to go... |

... but put in that context, it's a blockbuster for the House of Mouse. |

Re: Weekend Box Office 12/11-13/09.
I expect PATF to do good business over the Christmas break. So even though it might not have the largest openeing weekend ever, it'll do OK. Add in the merchandising & eventual DVD sales will have Disney's investors happy.
Add the fact that Disney can add PAFT's girl to their Disney Princesses line-up, that money train will go on for years. |

Hilarious how there are still people who think NM is under-performing when it's just shy of $300 mil and has been firmly lodged in the top 5 for weeks.

Was anyone really surprised with the big drop? I was more surprised that it broke the 1 day record. No matter how people spin it with the "surprised" big drops, New Moon is still one of the most profitable movies of the year.

Re: Weekend Box Office 12/11-13/09.
/\ Speaking of big drops, Transylmania dropped close to 95% this weekend. :jawdrop:
Granted, they yanked it out of every theatre in my area, but that is nuts! |
