Nope... this is standard for Thanksgiving. Hugo is clearly going to appeal to older audiences due to Scorsese

Posted by: TheWeekendWarrior on Nov 25, 06:16 in response to islander's post Huh, with the new #s, Looks like he may be right though

so it will do better on Thanksgiving when family movies tend to have a bigger drop.  Today and tomorrow, Muppets and Artur Christmas will have a much bigger percentage increase over Thanksgiving day than Hugo. Trust me on this.

Hugo will gain steam over the weekend; reviews are great, word of mouth even better. At $25 / share it is a bargain. {nm} Latinman4747 Nov 25, 05:30

Again...this is verging on market manipulation. Right now, high estimates have it at $12 million, which means it's overpriced. TheWeekendWarrior Nov 25, 05:42

Agreed, feels like manipulation (Arthur and Muppets have similar great reviews) {nm} numbersix_99 Nov 25, 05:43

Either way... if you're going to make a statement like the above... show your math. (which one can do now we have Thurs #s) {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Nov 25, 06:21

Manipulation.....and HUGO is also the biggest casualty of war this thanksgiving, {nm} gogreen Nov 25, 05:46

My belief that this film with the strong reviews, good word of mouth and... Latinman4747 Nov 25, 08:16

Right, but it is explicitly against the HSX Code of Conduct to make these calls to action. {nm} dsbman Nov 25, 10:14

Weekend Warrior says only older audiences due to Scorsese...WOW...what an insult to Scorsese....this film is a worldwide hit...Yes... Latinman4747 Nov 25, 14:03

Scorsese's name-appeal to older audiences won't turn off younger ones, yet that's the implied logic ???!! {nm} Rocky13 Nov 25, 14:55

I never said this movie was only getting older audiences cause of Scorsese... TheWeekendWarrior Nov 26, 06:11

Applause at a HUGO show Latinman4747 Nov 25, 20:11

You project 100 mil? Based on what. This is blatant and unsubstanciated...again. You know, you could try educating us vs this approach. {nm} PVL Admin (Rocket123) Nov 26, 00:42

There are films like Sideways, Kings Speech, Slumdog Millionaire, Descendants, that platform release and end up with a strong gross. Latinman4747 Nov 26, 04:09
