 Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder And even if SW: CW gets $7 mil OD, it won't reach $18 mil OW.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder Chip [Bot] wrote: And even if SW: CW gets $7 mil OD, it won't reach $18 mil OW. It depends. There's a lot of thinking that the fanbase factor will lead to a Saturday drop, but what if this plays more like a typical kid's film? I can honestly see it going either way.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder  I think the best it can hope for on Saturday is a 5% drop. Which would give it about $19 mil OW. _________________trixster wrote: shut the fuck up zwackerm, you're out of your fucking element trixster wrote: chippy is correct

Which would give it about $19 mil OW. Notfabio is reporting that the film is skewing very young, which would indicate a reach beyond the fanboys. It makes sense because the film is pretty much an animated cartoon.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder The real question is if the Star Wars fanbase actually rushed out for the movie. This isn't exactly Episode 7. It just looks like a lame DTV movie.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder Hopefully enough of that fanbase stayed home so we don't get a sequel.

Its midnights were about 56% of Wall-E, and although you can't make a direct comparison, I can see it pulling $20m+.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder The Rocker is at 125 right now, with 9 written reviews. Last night at about
midnight it was at 117 (8). So what does that mean for Wednesday? 1-1.5M?
Not even that much?

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder notfabio at hsx says that if MTC was similar to the national average for
yesterday, then Rocker did about 750K.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder Does this mean it's reallllly going to bomb this weekend? Yeah.
And to think, Rainn Wilson was on E! Entertainment saying "The Rocker better open to $18.7M this weekend" Hah/.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder The Rocker bombing would be fitting considering who is distributing it.
Babylon A.D. looks to be one of the few decent openers for Fox this summer if tracking is to be believed.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Bangkok Dangerous 194 with 30 written so far. With that percentage and only 3 hours to go, can't see an opening day of over $3m.
