Impressive. But China managed to double that number. Quote The bulk of overseas comes from China which was the linchpin this weekend — when F7 opened in 2015, it did so without the Middle Kingdom in the first suite. The gross there is a staggering $192.1M. That’s the biggest 3-day start of all time and the No. 1 debut for a Hollywood film. It is the 2nd best opening weekend ever behind only 2016’s local title, The Mermaid, which had the benefit of four days of previews over the New Year period last year. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4142-box-office/page/18/#findComment-3190645

The Promise features a love triangle, as does The Ottoman Lieutenant, a 2017 release set in Turkey during the early days of WWI. This NY Times article delves into the filming of both along with the controversy surrounding them. Kerkorian apparently pledged $100M for the making of The Promise before his death in 2015. The movie was filmed in Malta, Portugal and Spain with heavy security. I don't know if all that really had to cost $100M, though, or since it was there to spend, hey, presidential suites and personal assistants for everybody! 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4142-box-office/page/18/#findComment-3207927

Hard to be a hit with 17% on Rotten Tomatoes AND a terrible Cinemascore: Quote Currently, the pic is looking to open below its low teen estimates with $9.3M in fourth over three-days and gets –gulp- a D+ CinemaScore. Now when was the last time that happened? Relativity’s The Disappointments Room landed a D back in September. Here’s some good news: Moviegoers enjoyed The Circle better than Paramount’s The Devil’s Inside which received an ‘F’ five years ago. Keep in mind that The Devil Inside is a horror movie that told people to go to a website to see how the story ended (stunningly, this did not lead to good word of mouth!). Speaking of endings: Quote The marketing connected with The Circle’s release went in another direction, with many rivals griping about its convoluted trailers. Originally, test scores for The Circle were low. A reshoot was ordered four months ago and the ending changed, putting a positive light on Watson’s protagonist in the end. Test scores fell even further. Edited May 1, 2017 by Dejana Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4142-box-office/page/18/#findComment-3230432

I see The Mummy is just going to be another film that will underperform domestically, but shine overseas. Other countries really love Tom Cruise, huh? But I wonder how the other "Dark Universe" films will fare without his star power (overseas.) I wonder if Russell Crowe's Dr. Jekyll in the failing The Mummy will have an impact on his own upcoming Doctor Jekyll and Mister Hyde. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4142-box-office/page/18/#findComment-3363970
Spartan Girl June 11, 2017 Share June 11, 2017 Totally knew Wonder Woman could kick Tom Cruise's ass. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4142-box-office/page/18/#findComment-3364275

Much better than the 69% drop for BvS. This is how a good superhero movie performs, it has legs.

I haven't really been following "Dark Universe" news, but I had assumed that they'd get Tom to be in all of them somehow. No?

I haven't either but I'd imagined a more Marvel-esque series of stand-alones within universe? Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4142-box-office/page/18/#findComment-3366067
starri June 12, 2017 Share June 12, 2017 I believe that they intend(ed?) to use Crowe's Jekyll as their Nick Fury. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4142-box-office/page/18/#findComment-3366533

With the final figures the weekend total for Wonder Woman was $58,520,672, making the drop even better at 43.4 percent! 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4142-box-office/page/18/#findComment-3373277
