Fall and Rita didn't even report friday numbers. So grats to whoever went lowest.

Ah nevermind Variety has them at 925k for Fall and 325k for Mack. Not terrible for Fall all things considered.

The combined Beast and Dragon Ball predictions are reasonably far apart for some people, so there could be some movers next week

Why in the hell did I go so high on this?!? I guess I didn't really know what it was, but I've just seen a trailer and, my god, it looks so awful. I'd be surprised if it does half of what I predicted.

Ha. Your prediction will be fine. You might be a bit too low on it. I do think it looks bad too and I am so uncomfortable seeing the trailer with an audience. But I bet it's actually going to be good. I can't see reviews being bad with it premiering at TIFF which is why they decided to release it in September instead of August despite seeming perfect for August. Apatow movies pretty much always get good reviews. I could honestly see it potentially following in the footsteps of Bridesmaids and scoring an Original Screenplay nomination at the Oscars.

Reviews and buzz should be there enough for it to at least hit double digits. Personally I think they needed some name actors in it rather than just filling the entire cast with LGBTQIA actors. Eichner should have at least had a bigger name love interest in it rather than the guy from several Hallmark movies. No offense to Luke MacFarlane who I did like on Brothers & Sisters. I will say the green band trailer is MUCH better than the red band. That trailer was awful.

In the future maybe watch trailers for everything before predicting. :P That's what I do.

I think Bros needed more mid 2000s gross out comedy spots. A pretty thin line to walk though without offending people.

Magic Mike stays hot but needs a low performance for with his 13 mil for Don't Worry Darling. publicenemy#1's 25 million prediction for Bros seems ill fated.

Fall is a bonafide wide release. Much wider than Pearl goes I bet.


I should have taken this bet. ;)

If this month and next weren't so dead in theaters Pearl would have opened in 1,000 or less. :P But alas what else are theaters going to book right now? It will just be showing in empty auditoriums.

If estimates are correct I was basically right on for The Woman King. But I think Don't Worry Darling is going to screw me over. Somehow the controversy seems to have helped. Thursday/Friday shows have a decent amount of people here already.

Well, Pearl opened to $3.1 million and Fall opened to $2.5 million. I guess that proves we should have predicted Pearl over Fall. ;)

So there's about ten releases we could predict for October. Hopefully we can get back to monthly games.

October and November have enough on their own for two seperate games. December will probably need to be combined with January.
