Does the prospect of 3 $30M+ openers (none aimed at small children) in early to mid-February square with history?

Posted by: DTXbro (a.k.a SenJohnBlutarsky) on Feb 10, 14:12 in response to grammar's post SAFEH 14/38m THEVOW 13/36m SWI3D 11/33M MYSTR 4/18M for...

Seems extraordinary to the Deltas.  No blockbuster potential here -- a 3D retread, a chick flick, a mid-level semi-action semi-thriller, and a low-level action movie.

Caution:  We haven't had a chance to check our math with the guys at the Jewish house or the engineering frat.

 

So... Nikki updated her early "numbers"... flatlynr Feb 10, 13:47

SAFEH 14/38m THEVOW 13/36m SWI3D 11/33M MYSTR 4/18M for the record knowing that she will surely revise. {nm} grammar Feb 10, 13:54

She will even revise the interior info without changing the headline.... {nm} dioneta Feb 10, 13:56

Dang. Everything but Journey 2: Journey Harder broke out. {nm} thatpj Feb 10, 13:59

It happened in 2010, but that did have the help of both Valentine's and President's Day {nm} xiayun Feb 10, 14:16

Last year same weekend, two movies did around $30 million... I think she may be overly bullish on all of those. It's too early {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Feb 10, 14:27

Any rational reason MYSTR will do 4.5 X friday BO? {nm} forlorne Feb 10, 13:59

Nikki math... Gotta love it... {nm} flatlynr Feb 10, 14:01

SW13D is 3 X (incl middies) .. ? {nm} grammar Feb 10, 15:12

surprised with Safe House. It really has been a while since last Denzel movie... {nm} b4bad Feb 10, 15:10

agreed. good for Denzel and Reynolds though. Especially Reynolds after last summer. {nm} thatpj Feb 10, 18:31

Good numbers. The Vow should be beating Safe House since it's PG-13 but the action movie is winning anyway. Go Denzel and Reynolds. {nm} HarryWarden Feb 10, 15:31

Rats. Shorting the SAFEH OW is going to negate all the profits I'll get from the rest of them. :( {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Feb 10, 16:32
