Toy Story 2 + $7 m = $252,852,179 (Passes $250 m!!!)
Toy Story + $7 m = $198,796,233 (Should pass $200 m eventually!!!) That's not the way a double feature works... Mojo has always counted the double feature as one movie itself... ie. Grindhouse

Grindhouse That's why I said unofficially. Disney re-releases could work differently though, as it has for past IMAX releases. I'm sure Disney could always split the box office, and allow Toy Story to pass $200 m, and Toy Story 2 to pass $250 m, bringing more buzz to Toy Story 3...

Re: Early Friday Numbers Whip It, along with some other flops this year with a young female-dominant cast, should cauton movie executives to avoid making these movies and only cast female-oriented movies if the cast is middle-aged or older.

Re: Early Friday Numbers Alex Y. wrote: Whip It, along with some other flops this year with a young female-dominant cast, should cauton movie executives to avoid making these movies and only cast female-oriented movies if the cast is middle-aged or older. Well it has certainly been a hard year for films with a young female dominated cast: I Love You Beth Cooper $14,800,725 Jennifer's Body $13,525,760 Sorority Row $11,001,080 Post Grad $6,362,617 Bandslam $5,210,988 Whip It But then you also had a lot of close to middle aged female led films disappoint quite a bit as well: Bride Wars $58,715,510 Confessions of a Shopaholic $44,277,350 Duplicity $40,572,825 New in Town $16,734,283 Love Happens $16,133,055 My Life in Ruins $8,665,206 And then you a male led rom com disappoint as well: Ghosts of Girlfriends Past WB (NL) $55,250,026 I think overall it was quite a tough year for the demo with some major stand outs (The Proposal, Julie and Julia, The Ugly Truth). But has we have seen in past years, these films can also do really well. Many of the films with younger stars listed were going to flop anyhow regardless of age. They could have added male stars and I still think many of them would have flopped.

Re: Early Friday Numbers September was terrible. Nothing but Cloudy passed 50m and only TP was the other to pass 40 and Steve for 30.
Terrible month. Everything passed 10m so far though, except Whiteout a few thousand away and Pandorum which will not get to 10m.
This is in relation to the girl cast or whatever since most were released during the last month, the ones that flop I mean.

As bad as September box office was, it was still the 2nd biggest September ever, and was just $11 m away from being the biggest September box office ever. It's a very slow month where not much usually happens...

Re: Early Friday Numbers I got up this morning wanting to see Toy Story so I got ready about 0945 this morning and was finished by 1000 only to check and see the first showing of it was at 1000 and not 1030 like it was Friday. I debated a short bit if I should go or not and decided to see it later at my fav theatre. I get to my fav place at 1224 just in time to catch the 1230 showing only to discover it was freaking sold out. Sold out because it's in one of the smaller theatres while they put this in one of the two grand auditoriums...  What a WASTE OF SPACE.
