BOR: Man Called Otto $4.05 TheWeekendWarrior Jan 14, 08:25

DL way lowballed Otto {nm} notfabio Jan 14, 08:26

I don't know if I'd call $650k "way lowballed"... but DL's numbers are always too early. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jan 14, 08:27

Could be a close call for 3rd place between Puss and Otto. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jan 14, 08:28

Sign that Ottos audience isnt just seniors going a little broader perhaps. Not sure the slight overestimate on M3GAN is indicative {nm} notfabio Jan 14, 08:39

DL: Midwest Female Powah for Otto none of the Top 75 theatres were LA NYC. notfabio Jan 14, 08:44

Also vaguely says that formerly HBO Max titles will be 17 day windows 45 HBO Max so possibly Evil Dead Rise as well {nm} notfabio Jan 14, 08:46

and MGCM3 {nm} Antibody Jan 15, 08:04

I think 45 days until it hits HBO Max is much better than 2021 when all movies were on HBO Max day-and-date {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jan 15, 09:25

BOR: Plane $3.5m {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jan 14, 08:37

B+ CinemaScore TheWeekendWarrior Jan 14, 08:42

DL reports that "Plane" production budget was in the low $20Ms. (so the film is very likely to make profit) {nm} Peterlee Jan 14, 08:55

I bet House Party is less than that. I'd be shocked if it was more. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jan 14, 09:01

Production cost or Box Office? ;-) {nm} Tallwonder Jan 14, 11:05

Bor: 4.85 M3GAN little lower than DL notfabio Jan 14, 07:41

Why do they not have a slogan for Thursdays? Hen Night Thurs? and Slumber Party Fri? {nm} Tallwonder Jan 13, 22:47

Thursdays are expected. Earlier are still new and somewhat rare {nm} notfabio Jan 14, 07:21

I know. Was just commenting on the shady marketing terms. Thats why I added Fri too but thx anyway. {nm} Tallwonder Jan 14, 08:32

Well, I know where I will be on Weds... hello, ladies! {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jan 14, 07:25

DL Too Early #'s: AVATAR 2 35+ million 4 day off of a 7 million Friday, M3GAN 5 millon Friday (-57% even on Friday the 13th?) 20.7m 4 day. notfabio Jan 13, 16:26

OTTO TO THE MOON! 3.4 million Friday 11-12 4 day, PLANE 3 million Friday, 9.5 4 day. {nm} notfabio Jan 13, 16:27

Nothing on House Party or Skinamarink yet. {nm} notfabio Jan 13, 16:28

Most of those numbers will go up I expect. Otto I think will be close to 15 for 4 day. PIB will be higher (IMO) {nm} Peter453 Jan 13, 16:37

OTTO 3.4 vs THE UPSIDE MLK Jr Weekend showdown Friday $6,928,354 (22 4 day) (I don't think there were pre-opens?) {nm} notfabio Jan 13, 16:39

I think they'll save the Plane going to the moon until the 3rd sequel. TheWeekendWarrior Jan 13, 18:43

More chance of this Plane nosediving post the opening week than the other current wide releases {nm} Tallwonder Jan 13, 19:25

M3GAN's 1st Fri included Thurs preview grosses, plus more schools were out last Fri than today {nm} RupertPupkin Jan 13, 17:05

down 57% is good for a Friday if that holds. could be a sub 50% weekend drop, right? {nm} Moviesnob Jan 13, 17:19

Its a 45% drop once the previews are deducted last Friday, (9M vs 5M). {nm} Peter453 Jan 13, 17:29

Horror is having a great run. I expect Knock at the Cabin and Evil Dead Rise to also breakout (if they are decent quality) {nm} Peter453 Jan 13, 17:32

Grace Randolph: James Gunn met with WBD brass all this week to pitch his DC plans, very good chance first announcements next week. notfabio Jan 13, 12:03

"We’ll announce a few things in not too long, but the casting of Superman won’t be one of them.” {nm} notfabio Jan 13, 10:34

He doesn't address directing Superman (since Superman is priority for The Zas, I'd imagine he'll still formally announce that is coming) {nm} notfabio Jan 13, 10:35

The rumor said he was being looked at, not cast. {nm} Antibody Jan 13, 10:39

In the WB gossip department, Austin Butler's current girlfriend is Jacob Elordi's ex should they both get DC roles, it will be fun-times. {nm} notfabio Jan 13, 10:55
