Presales are sluggish and did not pick up despite the release being this weekend. Industry forecasts call for a $25-35M weekend. WoM is going to be the make or break for this film. 

 

Let's see how the weekend shakes out. 

Are presales a big thing to films that are not fanbase-driven?

Depends, The Fall Guy had a really long presales window (started selling back in March!) and they have fully positioned this as the blockbuster opener of the summer movie season. I can imagine the studio had visions of a $45-50M+ opener when they first released the trailer for this way back. 

 

Long presales windows are usually for IP, fanbase-driven stuff. So The Fall Guy is kind of being treated a more than just an action rom-com, especially with it taking the first weekend of May slot. 

 

As I type this, apparently there was a nice recovery today for presales, so let's see how the weekend goes.

This year have been serving bomb after bomb.

 

Unless I am wrong, I believe Bob Marley biopic, dune 2 and Godzilla are the only noticeable movies to make profit.

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes looks to be heading for a solid debut. An early $20M Saturday estimate brings the 2-day running total to $42M. Wknd expected to be around $55-57M. Matching War's OW would be impressive considering the franchise has been on ice for 7 years. 

 

Fall Guy heading for a $14-15M 2nd wknd. Fine hold but opening was low so will still be a flop. 

 

Challengers holding well in wknd 3, $5.5M (-35%). Should get past $50M domestic.

I'm shocked at the Apes B cinema score. Is it really that divisive?

I saw it and loved it so when I looked up the cinema score, I was literally shocked. I can't even imagine why it would be divisive

I'm surprised that Fall Guy movie flopped :deadbanana2: those trailers were amazing. 
 

I don't think I'll go to the theaters again until July.

Box office analysts say Deadpool and wolverine's pre-sales after just one day guarantee it will open at least at the Multiverse of Madness & Wakanda forever openings. 200M+ Opening is inevitable :wanda:

Anyone thinking Dune 2 would gross $1B didn't know what they were talking about. There is no logic based in that prediction.

Furiosa and Garfield square off this Memorial Day Weekend- both aiming for a 4-day holiday debut of $45-55M. 

 

If and Apes should have good holds to help bring up the box office, but it will still trail last year when The Little Mermaid stormed onto the scene with a $118M 4-day.

Me and my friends are going to see Furiosa tomorrow! I hope it does solid numbers at the box office.

except with the starting amount being the latter's box office.

Those Furiosa numbers are disastrous (both domestic and international). Yikes.
