BOR: JURA7 $91.5M / $147.30M. Antibody Jul 06, 08:12

Wow! {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jul 06, 08:13

Dominion did that in 2 and 3 days. Antibody Jul 06, 08:15

But "Wow!" because few were expecting JURA7 to do that well due to burnout, lower ticket sales. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jul 06, 08:16

Definitely still a big achievement considering how big of a fumble (storywise) Dominion was. notfabio Jul 06, 09:01

The world could stand to see more SJOHA budice Jul 06, 09:31

I agree. It did better than I thought it would do. It seems to be holding up well so far. Question inside... goodvibe61 Jul 06, 10:06

It's a great scene in the movie... really harks back to the Spielberg films. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jul 06, 10:21

I think a few more people get eaten in this one too, which might help! :-) {nm} Flash Jul 06, 10:25

I thought it was a great scene too...didn't know it was in the original novel {nm} tealfan Jul 06, 11:18

It might be sort of fun to go pick up the original paperback now; 30 years on and give it a go. It's an entertaining thriller. {nm} goodvibe61 Jul 06, 13:02

also, if you're a fan of Jaws, there's a bit of that flavor, too...character-wise, I just wish... tealfan Jul 06, 11:28

I wrote about that a little bit.. TheWeekendWarrior Jul 06, 17:45

another interesting read...thanks {nm} tealfan Jul 06, 18:56

Yeah, I've been doing some odds and ends for Collider... sometimes about big theatrical releases, some more esoteric. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jul 07, 07:36

58% walk-ins & 30% advance buyers only in last 3 days before release. Near impossible to judge BO Tallwonder Jul 06, 11:59

Hooray for GEDWA - Rogue One & The Creator were excellent. {nm} Qix Jul 06, 10:17

I'm a big Rogue One fan; I thought that film was wonderful. Saw it multiple times in the theater. {nm} goodvibe61 Jul 06, 13:03

Except that thanks to Andor, everyone is giving Tony Gilroy credit for Rogue One. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jul 06, 17:44

LOL! Well, that short didn't go well and I was away and didn't check in all weekend. [nm] KLB Jul 07, 04:03
