Wkd BO 0901-0317 - Labor Day WEAKend box office has nothing as Bodyguard 3peats

- Start date
I don't want to go too high on 1 day of data
Asia has already opened, so we'll know how things look there tomorrow, outside of Japan. China won't see a theatrical run of IT.
It looks like about half of Latin America opened this weekend. I'm curious to see where Mexico lands. Most of Europe opened this weekend, but the territories that didn't are a lot of the major territories (Germany, France, Italy). If this was a simultaneous release, we'd probably be looking at an international weekend that approached $125M. I'm guessing $75-85M overseas this weekend based on the $16M Friday (and $26M 3-day).

They were trying to grab your prize. They work for the mercenary. The masked man.
And people said box office would get boring in September.
Also, another nice bonus, that irritating "endless trash" gif has another good movie in it, so maybe people will stop posting it in every movie thread.

People will still post Endless Trash, because it's easier than articulating an opinion.

In fairness, It's a mystery if they have their own opinions to articulate.

People who defer to cynical RLM stuff as their response don't have much to add, anyway.

We know Cinema Sins is where the real intelligent critique comes from.

correct about everything
you're forgetting american made, the latest hit from the cruise missile.
I can't wait for American Made. That'll redeem him.
You've gone too far.
Possibly Coco as well.
Based on what? GAF interest or box office potential?
Ninjago, Coco, Ferdinand, and Pitch Perfect 3 all have a shot at making more than some of the films on that list, but they aren't really aimed the GAF demographic.
I have a bad feeling about the quality of Coco. Disney has spent more time advertising the 20 minute Frozen short than they have the film itself. There doesn't seem to be a lot of confidence there so far.

Snagged some of these bad boys at my local theater:
Super excited, going to put them up by my monument of shame alongside my Mighty No. 9 figurine.
Side-note: Brigsby Bear is probably the most empty showing I've been to all year.

I mean just blockbusters period.
boxoffice.com has Thor Ragnarok opening to $100M domestic and Bad Moms Christmas opening to $30M.
Kingsman sort of feels like War for the Planet of the Apes right now. There should be more buzz than there is.

Sometimes it's funny, if not a little sad, when you see some people lift lines verbatim from RLM and the like, trying to pass them off as original thoughts.
Kingsman and Blade Runner are questionable to be considered big guns, at least by comparison to the other three. I'd love it if Blade Runner managed to be a huge hit, though.
I think Murder on the Orient Express has potential, to be a modest success at least.
And, uh, Jumanji will break out in the post-Star Wars 8 weeks. That'll happen. For sure.

Wait wait hold up.
We got so caught up in the IT hype that we completely overlooked the other big release this week:
How's 9/11 doing?

That was the Emoji movie. You just saw the talking poop and assumed it was Jumanji.

God, the art has had so much more effort put into it than anything else in Inhumans.
JEEZ. I didn't think it looked that bad.

Don't tell me that art is Jae Lee. I know he's been doing promo art for the TV show but his talent is being wasted on this garbage.

Now that we've seen The Dark Tower (aka The Darck Failure), it's not hard to imagine that the same screenwriter(s) handling Jumanji have the surest contender for the 'big pile of shit' list of this year.

It's ok, The Rock also thought so people could forget Baywatch.

Please, at least Dinah knows a bunch of fighting styles.
Black Bolt has the Master Blow
We still have Eternals, and Alpha Flight

I feel like the audience for Inhumans TV is so insignificant they could make a movie in 3 or 4 years and nobody would mind.

People keep talking about Wolverine and Deadpool as the "Canadian Heroes" but dammit if Captain America can be big then I want my Guardian:

Also for anyone who wasn't aware, it's totally canon that Tony Stark and Justin Trudeau are buddies:

I'd guess that Fox owns the rights to Alpha Flight. Which probably means that they were founded by Mystique.
Nope, Marvel has mentioned Department H in AOS
Maybe the TV rights are different. Plus, Department H is pretty generic.
I still laugh that the only thing they could think to do with Alpha Flight is make them Carol's minions
Better than being killed off panel by Bendis in a random issue of New Avengers.
I still hate that, that line up was goofy but interesting. Plus they had to kill the second black Canadian superhero

Just to answer my own question from before and satiate my curiosty, as per Collider:
Currently has a 20% on the ole' Tomatometer.

Jesus on the IT numbers. They launched that at just the right time.
Why you going to keep kicking them while they're down?
Spider-Man Homecoming continues its weird as hell box office run. It just feels like the film was at the right time to do what it's doing.
