Thanks. But how dismal. {nm} second gary Jul 09, 20:00

well, the bright side is that it would be GDT largest non sequel opening and, well nevermind, who am i kidding. ouch {nm} Moviesnob Jul 09, 20:32

I read V's review today, and I wish that the marketing campaign had tried to establish: 1. It's the year 2020. 2. This contest with... second gary Jul 09, 20:37

it sounds like they show almost less of the robots v. monsters in the actual film than the trailers have {nm} charlie Jul 09, 20:49

personally, I think this was a tough sell, but the marketing has been way too sci-fi IMO. WWZ showed you can market niche films to a large Moviesnob Jul 09, 20:52

just like every trailer they've released for it {nm} charlie Jul 09, 20:34

I still have my hopes, I seem to remember MTC predicting PURGE to open to 12 {nm} mantleclinic Jul 10, 07:31

Holding my predict at $40M MINIMUM opening. All these guys trying to sell you on PACRM opening under $30M can eat some robot s%$=. {nm} eallensbp Jul 09, 21:17

Waiting for RS to publish a $18-$20M PACRM predict. These guys outta be ashamed out of box office prediction. {nm} eallensbp Jul 09, 21:19

You should be kind to RS there prediction was 40's (it's tagged) {nm} JDolphin Jul 09, 21:27

but since they are usually off, you're in trouble ;) {nm} JDolphin Jul 09, 21:28

JDolphin, I see it and you're right. That said, RS should be trumpeting their $40s prediction. I hope they stand by it. {nm} eallensbp Jul 09, 21:36

As for me, I'm not worried. I know PACRM will perform, FWIW an impromptu Deadline poll had most of its respondents saying PACRM will do 55+. {nm} eallensbp Jul 09, 21:39

For the record, it sounds too good to be true that PACRM will end up at $55M OW, but unless the movie sucks mangy balls, it's a $40M+ opener {nm} eallensbp Jul 09, 21:44

It's currently at 84% fresh on RT, so I don't think that mangy ball sucking is in its future. {nm} helmetz Jul 09, 21:54

Thanks, helmetz. There you go. Ergo, $40M+ opener. AT LEAST. {nm} eallensbp Jul 09, 21:58

What does "MTC" mean ? {nm} Utech Jul 09, 22:09

Major Theater Chain..... shhhhhhhh! {nm} Tarheels Jul 09, 22:21

RS = Reel Source... "professional" tracking sources {nm} Tarheels Jul 09, 22:22
