Warrior has some problems for opening weekend IMO - there's no compelling reason to see it OW, the MMA subject matter will deter non-MMA

Posted by: RogerMore on Sep 06, 11:19 in response to Juiced's post 30? Woah! That's a big number. 8 Seems low for warrior too.

watching adults.  Reaction I've seen to the trailer has not been strong - typical cheesy predictable sports movie, etc.   I expect it will pick up business through word of mouth, but my OW expectations are low.

I think you might be right. Non MMA fans will probably wait to for the WOM. {nm} Juiced Sep 06, 11:20

The BOM poll for Contagion is pretty strong, 28.5% OW interest; should correspond to a 20m opening minimum {nm} xiayun Sep 06, 11:43

good to know. 20m is still a bit aways from 30 though. {nm} Juiced Sep 06, 12:55

True, but given the current price, I personally feel there is less downside risk with a lot more upside room {nm} xiayun Sep 06, 13:02

The way the last few weeks have gone, I think any suprises are possible! {nm} Juiced Sep 06, 13:20

Bucky 5.5 ? Is that for 4 weeks? {nm} mrbinns Sep 06, 10:58

What is "creature"... ? {nm} Facto Sep 06, 11:05

self distributed horror film starring horror vet sid haig. currently without a moviestock. islander Sep 06, 11:11

Sorry, but what does MTC stand for? I know BOM, and I've seen MTC around here a few times but I don't know that one yet. {nm} Ruthian23 Sep 06, 11:52

Major Theater Chain, presumably it's some major movie retailer's advanced tracking numbers. {nm} stevie1der328 Sep 06, 12:14

Thanks. {nm} Ruthian23 Sep 06, 12:52

MTC doesn't forecast limited release movies so Creature must be going wide, right? {nm} HarryWarden Sep 06, 12:38

Is there even a stock for that movie? {nm} Dorfman Sep 06, 13:48

Nope. {nm} HarryWarden Sep 06, 13:52

Yahoo! Movies has it listed under limited (as of 8/30), but I could have sworn I saw the other day that it was opening wide somewhere. Ruthian23 Sep 06, 14:33

Creature maybe coming out in 2000 theaters. Ads say in theaters everywhere, but when listed it says limited. Bubble Factory release so... {nm} MovieMavericks Sep 08, 13:19

Box Office Mojo just got confirmation that Creature is in 1507 theaters. {nm} MovieMavericks Sep 08, 13:24
