Lower the front “The Hangover” # 1 with $ 33.4 million weekend, ‘Up’ # 2 A 30.5 million m ‘Pelham’ # 3 with $ 25 million, Eddie has a bomb
This is the first movie this summer to stay at No. 1 for 2 consecutive weeksSaturday AM / PM Sunday: Bros’ Hangover Warner still rules the North American box office and is to sail more than $ 200M domestic, according to studies, even rivals. Never underestimate the tastes of moviegoers comedy, eh? With incredible grip only 26%, which accumulated a second weekend of $ 33.4M for a new cume of $ 105.3M. (As the saying goes, failure is an orphan, but success has many fathers, so to see my previous How ‘The Hangover’ Taiwan.) The R-rated no stars, compared with low Laffer old school Director Todd Phillips was 10.5 million U.S. dollars Friday (only 37% from its opening week) and $ 12.9 million on Saturday (24%) from 3355 dates.
Pixar / ’s blockbuster Disney to ending its third week # 2 with $ 30.5 m after scoring another Friday $ 8,800,000 and $ 13,100,000 Saturday and an estimated $ 8.6 million on Sunday of 3886 runs. Pixar films always move on, and going and going … and this is now the third highest grossing a national
As for The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3, when I fell asleep Friday night, I was looking to open at number 2 based on the East Coast of the numbers. At the end of Sunday, the total was only $ 25 million estimate on Sunday. Exit polls showed that 54% of the audience opening weekend were men and 62% over 30 years of age. Sony now has to depend on strong sales abroad to Pelhamknown rival studios opening on Friday of $ 8,300,000 on Saturday followed by $ 9.6 million from 3,074 theaters very soft. Why did not anyone remade the classic 1974 film is inexplicable, especially in this CGI-heavy summer. But Pictures, Sony adult thriller starring Denzel Washington and John Travolta was not as big a kick late in the night as expected, and fell to number three in those who stayed throughout the weekend. (Now, if the meter is turned into a transformer …) Moreover, the recent tragedy Travolta family means that the actor was unable to promote the film.
Wine in the 6 th with only $ 1.8 million debut Friday and $ 2.2 million Saturday at 3,008 locations. Why studies still cast as Eddie Murphy star in a live action film is beyond me, even a family movie. So imagine that Paramount is only weak everywhere. (Remember last summer to bomb other Eddie Meet Dave?) This made only $ 5.7MWorse yet, now is a trend that Eddie’s movies can not open more than a $ 6M weekend.
