FRNIT doesn't surprise me. I don't think CFARR or AYELC have the star power to push it. I don't think it looks very scary either.

Posted by: SparkleMotion on Aug 15, 11:58 in response to lobogotti's post you could be right, but I think FRNIT is a tad low before...

The original has a small cult following for the cheese factor, but it doesn't look like they are playing that up with the remake. IMO, they should have remade The Lost Boys instead!

dump week! {nm} Peterlee Aug 15, 11:38

That's next week. CONAN is Lionsgate's big summer release, same for SPYK4 and Weinstein. {nm} Antibody Aug 15, 11:45

Other than Expendables have they had any success in August? {nm} lobogotti Aug 15, 11:47

The Last Exorcism also did well in August. That's the only other example I could find. {nm} HarryWarden Aug 15, 11:50

wow, it did open to 20M+....look at the full run multiplier on that one....horrible {nm} lobogotti Aug 15, 11:54

Given the RS/MTC rule, what's that mean for the openers? {nm} HarryWarden Aug 15, 11:40

It means THELP could be #1 (unless I'm right about CONAN) {nm} SparkleMotion Aug 15, 12:10

knew Conan was junk. Fright looks frightfully low. can't believe Spy fell that much from the last and One still seems a stretch at 7M. lobogotti Aug 15, 11:41

Conan will surprise, I think. Momoa has the Thrones cred. {nm} SparkleMotion Aug 15, 11:42

it just looks so horrible to me. if you offered me $50 I wouldn't go see it....seriously. now anymore and I would consider. lobogotti Aug 15, 11:45

Thrones is very buzzy. Maybe not to the level of Mad Men, but its familiar and Momoa plays a warrior type SparkleMotion Aug 15, 11:51

you could be right, but I think FRNIT is a tad low before Co.N.an.....can't believe it's not higher. {nm} lobogotti Aug 15, 11:52

The Lost Boys is sacred now! well FRNIT imo just looks like Disturbia, which I really enjoyed for what it was. not sure I will see Fright lobogotti Aug 15, 12:01

The sad bit is that even at 14, it will be CFARR's biggest opening since 2006's MVICE SparkleMotion Aug 15, 12:14

I don't think HBO / AMC type shows have much impact on BO. They're watched by relatively few people, compared to network TV. {nm} RogerMore Aug 15, 11:55

But are you 17 years old? TheWeekendWarrior Aug 15, 12:05

my wife would say YES and she didn't sign up for that.....but too bad! {nm} lobogotti Aug 15, 12:06

if it wasn't for THELP overperforming RSAPE stood a good chance to go #1 a third week in a row. {nm} lobogotti Aug 15, 12:03

Tagging MTC: [CONAN] [SPYK4] [FRNIT] [1DAY] {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Aug 15, 13:39

I don't understand how they come up with these numbers. both remakes of classic favorites at a time when reboots are killing. {nm} Fitch3k Aug 15, 19:13

My grandfather hasn't been to the movies since the 80s and he is going to see Conan. Fitch3k Aug 15, 19:14
