Cold War 1994 reported BO for its opening 2 weekends (BOM link inside), not updated here yet May 26, 11:56
ERC is the official source, but in this BOM case, those are still estimates (more) May 26, 12:12
Bad Bunny and Alan Cumming join Toy Story 5 [TOYS5] May 26, 11:48
It's hard to believe a new Spielberg sci-fi movie opens in less than three weeks May 26, 01:50
It reminds me of when Minority Report came out May 26, 01:52
Minority Report came out 3 years before War of the Worlds {nm} May 26, 03:45
Oh, that's right... it's what happens when I have insomnia and post in the middle of the night :) May 26, 05:36
Granted, it also has 24 years of ticket inflation over Minority Report May 26, 05:37
Yeah, I'm sure you're right. A Spielberg/Cruise film opening in summer would have those expectations. {nm} May 26, 06:21
Tracking hit last week. Since it didn't hit the press, you can guess why {nm} May 26, 07:08
Universal is pretty good at holding numbers off for sure. {nm} May 26, 09:33
C'mon, Rupert Pupkin...give us the dirt! :) You can do it under a pseudonym. {nm} May 26, 10:30
Whenever I go to the theater, I see the trailer on the expense end of the reel. By now, I also understand the language. {nm} May 26, 20:01
It's funny cause it's been the exact same trailer, but it just keeps adding more footage as they finish the VFX I guess. {nm} May 27, 05:55
So Who Saw What Last Week? {nm} May 25, 17:29
The Mandalorian and Grogu (A) {nm} May 25, 17:29
Obsession (B+), I Love Boosters (B-) {nm} May 25, 18:01
There's Something About Mary A, Baby Driver A, The Handmaiden B+, Arrival A, Super 8 B+ {nm} May 25, 18:14
That looks like a pretty fun week right there. {nm} May 25, 22:31
To be fair, Something About Mary is something I've been watching in bits and bobs on Netflix over the past few weeks. {nm} May 26, 01:46
John Wick 1 (B+), John Wick 2 (A+), John Wick 3 (A), Shelter (B), 10 Cloverfield Lane (C) {nm} May 25, 19:30
and a fond goodbye to The Neighborhood. Solid show that always delivered, sorry to see it go. {nm} May 25, 19:31
Cedric is not remotely funny, nor is the white guy (no idea of his name) {nm} May 25, 21:59
Obsession: B {nm} May 25, 22:10
Jack Ryan: Ghost War (D) {nm} May 25, 22:44
Yikes May 26, 01:58
Obsession (B+), Hoppers (B), Normal (C-) {nm} May 26, 02:59
Mando and the G (C+) {nm} May 26, 06:10
The Mandalorian and Grogu (B+) {nm} May 26, 07:11
Netflix May 25, 15:02
Rumor Save Cinema: BlueFox scaling back IPIC rescue. Only Westwood and NY. Everything else closing May 25, 09:40
Will be interesting to see what happens with The Backrooms opening this week. They will share much of the same audience {nm} May 25, 13:10
STAR WARS will drop 70% and theaters will be playing that in 4300 theaters that will be half filled at best {nm} May 25, 13:32
And fully expecting it to struggle to make 170 or 175 and it won't make money for the studio for sure {nm} May 25, 13:57
It'll be profitable it's just gonna be a one week event and theaters are locked into it bc it's disney {nm} May 25, 14:38
BOR: OBSSN $23.90M / $30.35M / $60.73M. May 25, 07:50
Focus Features' biggest hit in years... and to show how different this is from their normal fare May 25, 07:55
Barker apparently wants to turn Obsession into an anthology series. There's too much money not to have a feature sequel. {nm} May 25, 08:40
they ran the same campaign as NOSFERATU {nm} May 25, 13:22
SWAR3 $81.0M / $100.0M. May 25, 08:25
they were adding shows at my theater yesterday, and every one sold out. May 25, 08:37
correction… over 5x for Sinners! hard to predict what Obsession will be, but don’t rule out 7x {nm} May 25, 08:42
Jatinder: SWAR3 $79.5M weekend. 4-day Memorial Day weekend expected to be $96-97M. May 24, 21:22
Thinks OBSSN will beat SWAR3 for number 1 this week May 25, 07:45
"weekend" {nm} May 25, 07:46
as well as Backrooms {nm} May 25, 07:48
His post was just about Backrooms.... and it's just his prediction. {nm} May 25, 07:49
DOh, I misread his post. {nm} May 25, 08:07
I'm still going back and forth whether Backrooms wins May 25, 08:15
good example: my theater is Emagine in Fishers, IN. it’s a massive theater. May 25, 08:57
thanks for this. I didn’t realize, so that makes more sense. my daughter recognized May 25, 09:34
BACKROOMS has already been on sale {nm} May 25, 10:55
Backrooms will win and it won't be particularly close May 25, 13:10
PASSENGER is the horror film that will get squeezed not OBSSESSION or BACKROOMS {nm} May 25, 13:35
PEDDI Pre-Sales $500K and Counting May 24, 21:20
I agree... it harks back to the first movie in some ways...simpler. {nm} May 25, 06:07
Needed a better singular "Thrawn" bad guy after the opening having 8 gazillion side quests made it feel too episodic. {nm} May 25, 06:29
Also should have saved Cad Bane for this, would have been better than Embo. {nm} May 25, 06:30
NERDS!!!!! May 25, 07:30
I agree, but I am an uber fan. Limited series characters seemed to have helped the box office {nm} May 25, 10:48
My only real problem was Radda the Hutt and that whole gladiator section... just really bad visual FX May 25, 06:08
This is NOT the Way! {nm} May 25, 10:49
Want some easy money? Check out the four TV derivatives cashing out on Tuesday. May 24, 11:52
WOR: Michael Mann’s HEAT2 to Shoot From September 2026 - March 2027 May 24, 10:35
I feel so mixed on this project... love the original movie... MMANN hasn't done anything exciting in many years {nm} May 24, 11:32
he wrote the book this movie is based on which is fantastic {nm} May 24, 13:33
co-wrote, sorry {nm} May 24, 13:34
ST: The real IMAX at Seattle Center will no longer show feature films May 24, 09:10
It was doing fine unlike SIFF Cinerama so kinda baffling especially with ODYSSEY around the corner {nm} May 24, 12:09
TN: OBSSN 22.4/ 52.78 3 days/ total May 24, 07:46
chart has TUNER at $105 3-day in 4 theaters {nm} May 24, 08:13
$105k, that is {nm} May 24, 08:14
$102K...don't leave out the K! :) {nm} May 24, 08:14
This is going for the highest-grossing movie to not be #1... at least not on the weekend. {nm} May 24, 08:15
Currently held by My Big Fat Greek Wedding I believe... but that's well into the $100m plus range {nm} May 24, 08:15
Correction: $241.4m {nm} May 24, 08:16
Oppenheimer and Sing are higher than My Big Fat Greek Wedding. {nm} May 24, 08:36
Hm...and neither of those got a daily #1 either, so ... nevermind! :) {nm} May 24, 09:07
same chart SCHRN 3 day is $56k in 385 theaters {nm} May 24, 12:25
Yikes! Why did IFC even bother with theatrical on this. {nm} May 25, 16:24
BOR: ILBOS $3.72M / $4.57M. 4-day May 24, 07:32
OBSSN $22.4M + 30%, through Monday stands at $58.58M May 24, 07:37
PSNGR $8.70M / $10.50M 4-day May 24, 07:58
SWAR3 $81.96M / $102.0M. May 24, 08:16
Gonna be some interesting battles this coming weekend... May 24, 08:22
why can't you get this ticker right? May 24, 08:25
You say TOMTO, I say TMATO {nm} May 24, 08:32
Fjord takes the Palme D'Or {nm} May 23, 12:50
NEON's streak intact - also did you go this year? {nm} May 23, 12:52
Sadly no, am too busy at work and parenting. No fun for me. By all friends' accounts, Fjord was underwhelming though {nm} May 23, 13:06
I miss our Guinness catchups! I'm planning on going next year so hopefully see you then {nm} May 23, 13:12
People with predictions were way off on most. {nm} May 23, 13:50
HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY May 23, 23:54
Harrison Fjord? {nm} May 24, 09:39

CRPRT $178k {nm} May 23, 11:45
512 not wide {nm} May 23, 12:51
Hence my constant rants on the WW Show. {nm} May 23, 14:34
Only 2 positive reviews on RT out of 8... and one of those is my pal Avi LOL! May 23, 14:36
To your buddy Avi's defense, his review is not remotely positive. {nm} May 23, 20:15
Wonder why he marked it "Fresh"....I haven't seen it personally. {nm} May 23, 20:23
