FRIDAY 9 PM, 2ND UPDATE: Hang on tight, folks, because this is turning into a bumpy North American weekend that’s still unsettlingly weak just as the box office has been since the beginning of August. ”The fear is that our total business is in the toilet,” one studio executive sighed to me tonight. The day’s numbers have been too ill-defined for me to declare hits and misses early on. But now, in a big surprise, DreamWorks Animation’s week-old 3D holdover Puss In Boots distributed by Paramount looks like it’s giving Universal’s 2D Tower Heist a run for #1 by Monday morning because of higher ticket prices and more theater bookings. Remember, last weekend’s surprise East Coast snowstorm and power outage resulted in the toon’s mediocre debut. The tie depends on Saturday when strong family matinees may swamp nighttime adults at the multiplexes. (Uh-oh: is this another Smurfs beats Cowboys & Aliens situation in the works?) Universal is hoping for a late-night surge of African-American and Latino audiences. New Line/Warner Bros’ unabashed raunchfest A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas looks surprisingly soft consider it was tracking well for weeks. (I wonder if there weren’t enough cheaper 2D theaters booked in those 2,875 runs with 2,943 3D screens.) ”Maybe Nikki Rocco and Dan Fellman should call off their blood feud,” one rival studio exec suggested to me tonight. “For the second time this year, Universal and Warner opened comedies on the same weekend. Last time was Your Highness and Arthur – and for the second time both pictures will underperform.” Top films are:
1. Tower Heist (Universal) NEW [3,367 Theaters]
Friday $9.5M, Estimated Weekend $28M
2. Puss In Boots 3D (DreamWorks Animation/Paramount) Week 2 [3,963 Theaters]
Friday $7.5M, Estimated Weekend $27M
3. A Very Harold And Kumar 3D Christmas (New Line/Warner Bros) NEW [2,875 theaters]
Friday $5.5M, Estimated Weekend $16M

Yeh definitely, anything over 25m is fantastic.

Can PIB keep up with MEGAMIND? BTW, I'm not totally surprised. I never believed in 200 M for this.

I hope so. It's dead meat on the 18th, though.

7.5m Friday means that this Saturday will outgross last Saturday. That's terrific for PIB. It needs all it can get before Thanksgiving, though if word is strong enough it could stick around.

It's a solid film and deserves to make a lot more than it's going to.

Decent for TH, even though H&K won't make it to 16 million with 5.5 on OD. This is a slow weekend until we get Immortals next weekend then BD.

I'm not counting on anything breaking out next weekend. Puss could be number 1 again.

I think it has a reasonable chance of happening. Tower Heist should have a bigger drop, and Immortals and J&J could both open under 20m.

I hope TH makes under 30m - it just looks really bad. That's a great hold for PIB, it'll be good if it can stay over 25m. Pretty expected for H&K, why would the studio think mid-teens is bad? It's the 3rd movie in the series, the 2nd opened to 16m - I don't get it.

That would mean about a 55% drop for PA3. That will put it at about 95 mill. I'm hoping it gets passed 107, not cuz its better than the first but just because it would be a great accomplishment for rhe series.

yeah wait a second, is the third movie in an insanely profitable in terms % doing close to its predecessors in H&K a good thing? its certainly not bad, its pretty good
most series don't hold up over the period of this trilogy
i know its a lot smaller than most but it still needs its own perspective, agreed?
