It's funny that Last Excorcism made back its budget in the first weekend, but is still being called a bomb.

A couple of notes:
1. Jack the Giant Slayer seems to be stuck in that weird limbo between kids' movie and adult movie and did not pull it off like some films (Harry Potter) are able to do.
2. Does the title "The Last Exorcism Part II" bother anyone else?

Even if it isn't, that's a foolish claim for people to make after 3 days. I think that it was just a slow weekend is what's governing critics' comments. (I heard Jack being called a "sorta-bomb" - never heard that before...)

Bad domestic total and decent overseas box office for Good Day To Die Hard means that Die Hard 6 will be in China. Where McClane is stuck always gets bigger and there's more people in China than Russia and it's now the place to gain a bigger overseas box office. But if Red Dawn has shown us anything, China is using this newfound box office power to propagandize whatever they want. In my vision, I see McClane saving China. Maybe the Head of the Communist Party hates McClane but at the end he says "Yippe Ki Ya, M***********" in Chinese. Pretty bad from Jack the Giant Slayer. Even Battleship and John Carter had strong overseas totals, eachwith over 200 million.

Oz did 24.1 million on Friday I didn't know a movie about prison with lots of prison rape can generate that much box office traffic!!!!

Well, Wade Barrett beat Dywane at something now... Yeah, looking at those numbers, Dead Man Down won't be coming anywhere close to Snitch's current box office total.

So Oz... not a bomb, but this doesn't speak well for the franchise based on that estimate.

Meanwhile the skit movie InAPPropriate Comedy (that somehow looks worse than MOVIE 43) only earned about $172,000 from 275 theaters. The movie stars Lindsey Lohan, Rob Schneider, and Adrian Brody and is directed by Vince Offer (seriously) I can't work out why it failed

A very good week at the box office when the predictions are higher than the weekend predictions.
