was his vision.

DL preview: MISS5 looking at an opening weekend in the low $40Ms; Vacation at least $20M from Friday-to-Sunday, $30M over Wednesday-Sunday Antibody Jul 27, 11:59

Will be very surprised if Vacation does more than low 20's over the 5-day frame. Another sequel nobody asked for and this one looks bad. {nm} RollingThunder Jul 27, 12:04

WB wouldn't have moved it up to Summer if test screening results were bad. {nm} Antibody Jul 27, 12:07

They are hoping for a We're The Millers repeat - going to be a longshot based on our surveys but this past weekend opens the door some. {nm} RollingThunder Jul 27, 12:09

Everyone I know can't wait to see this movie. Lots of ad's on it and the previews are looking better. {nm} Dorfman Jul 27, 12:26

i see it hitting low 20s on the 3-day weekend, low 30s for the 5 day {nm} adrenalin112 Jul 27, 14:43

Could be two weekends in a row that a former BO stalwart takes a beating. {nm} hyperzeitgeist Jul 27, 12:17

I'm hoping the MI reviews accelerate interest. Most of them say Cruise still has it even if he's not your cup of tea in life. {nm} RollingThunder Jul 27, 12:21

it looks exactly like the last three MI movies slipping jimmy Jul 27, 12:30

LOVED the first one. {nm} Dorfman Jul 27, 12:34

Hated the first one for what Cruise did to Mr. Phelps. {nm} Antibody Jul 27, 12:58

You blame Cruise? {nm} Jobs Jul 27, 13:21

It was Cruise who wanted to make an M:I movie, convinced Paramount to make it, developed the story (with his producing partners). The movie RogerMore Jul 27, 13:33

Yep. Also, he turned M:I from a team concept into his 007 and minor support characters. {nm} Antibody Jul 27, 13:42

The article says tracking is in the 30m range. Wasn't it low 40's a week ago? {nm} MattW Jul 27, 12:23

yeah, one place had 40m. BO.com started off saying 70m, then 60m {nm} andy007 Jul 27, 12:35

I can't believe how resistant MI5's stock is to reality. The only one to open over $50m was MI2 from 15 years ago. Highly overvalued IMHO. {nm} Carcharodon Jul 27, 12:23

Zero sum go bro'. Someone else's loss is your gain :D {nm} hyperzeitgeist Jul 27, 12:27

That's not true. HSX processes every trade without the need of an opposite party. {nm} Antibody Jul 27, 12:29

So when I let people bid up a stock to a silly level and short it I'm not gaining and they're not losing? {nm} hyperzeitgeist Jul 27, 12:32

This... isn't the value of the stock based on how people are holding it? Presumably if it's overvalued it's because people are holding it. {nm} Carcharodon Jul 27, 12:48

yes for every gainer there's probably a loser. But the sum is not exactly zero {nm} andy007 Jul 27, 13:27

It's almost never zero, and many times there can be far more winners than losers, and vv... RogerMore Jul 27, 13:44

Agreed {nm} Dorfman Jul 27, 12:27

Damn multiplier for (Previous Box Office + (2.7 * Box Office Fri-Sun)) always messes me up {nm} Dorfman Jul 27, 12:32

for vacation not MISS5 {nm} Dorfman Jul 27, 12:32

Going to be a long rollercoaster of a ride with Vacation opening Wed. {nm} Dorfman Jul 27, 12:35

I'm gonna stay on the sidelines until Wednesday night numbers come in. {nm} hyperzeitgeist Jul 27, 12:37
