Not too surprising, I liked the first Ted, but the previews for Ted 2, didn't make me want to see it. Also no Mila Kunis, I thought she was a good "straight man" to Ted and John's antics, and there's no Joel McHale. It's like Hot Tub Time Machine 2. Honestly, not to downplay it, but I think the first movie kind of overperformed at the boxoffice because of everyone interest in novelty of a Live Action Seth Macfarlane movie. Plus, the film was realized right in the midst of two better films being out and fresh on everyone's mind that they didn't wanna see a stupid MacFarlane vehicle over dinosaurs vs. Chris Pratt or adorable emotions by Pixar.

My prediction of Ted 2 being a financial disappointment came true. Watch your back, Terminator Genisys! Not too surprising, I liked the first Ted, but the previews for Ted 2, didn't make me want to see it. Also no Mila Kunis, I thought she was a good "straight man" to Ted and John's antics, and there's no Joel McHale. It's like Hot Tub Time Machine 2. Not having seen Ted, I hope Ted 2 is half as funny to me as Hot Tub 2. "It looks like dick pickin" "I was engineering quarterly's 30 under 30. I was hoping to be 20 under 40, but now I'm zero under f*** me, you f***ed me Lou!" "It's almost... violating" "SHOTGUN TO THE DICK!" "We found our mini cake bite- WE FOUND OUR MINI CAKE BITES!" "'Alternate universes... like FRINGE! neeerd- you're a f***in nerd- neeeerd- you're a f***in neeeerd- and noone likes you- poindextah!- noone likes you!" It didn't make much money but I've probably had more fun watching and rewatching it than any other movie this year. Lou is such an awful human being in that movie.

I also think the problem is that sequel comedies are very rarely as funny as the first film. Unless it's 22 Jump Street they never live up to the expectations.
Ted, Hangover, and Horrible Bosses suffer from this. All three of the first films were laugh out loud funny, unique, and had a certain charm to them that made them very memorable.

Honestly comedy sequels have a reputation among casual movie goers that it's never good as the first or its been too long since the last one. If the commercials make the sequel look watered down (aka looking like the same, replacing cast members) and doesn't have a good word of mouth, it tends to worse. Also release date and what movie to watch. Like Jurassic World is breaking box office records and Inside Out has great word of mouth of being one of the best Pixar Films ever. Then there is still films like Spy, Mad Max, Pitch Perfect 2, all having good reviews and being box office success. Also I really liked Hot Tub Time Machine 2.

Magic Mike and Terminator are both going to come in under tracking. Makes sense given the 4th of July weekend. I imagine both will pick up after the holidays, along with Minions, and Ant-Man coming out the following week both will bring in decent numbers.

Goshdarnit Genisys & Magic Mike... Going to have to fall back on 'Ol Reliable now. I'd really like Jurassic World to finish first one last time so Inside Out keeps it "Top Grossing Movie to Never Hit #1" for the weekend record. Otherwise it defaults back to My Big Fat Greek Wedding. They're going to be neck-and-neck now, what with I/O being a week fresher and World losing its IMAX screens to Terminator. Fridays are stronger for animation and JW's been killing it Saturday & Sunday, but with the holiday in play it'll be real real close.

Inside Out squeaked by to take the weekend; as expected numbers were hit hard by Independence Day holiday. They should recoup through the week until Minions rolls over all and Self/Less & The Gallows arrive with dull thuds.
For those following Jurassic World totals vs. top ever earners - it's gonna definitely slip against Avengers more on Monday due to the latter having Memorial Day for its release. World will be in the high thirty millions ahead in domestic gross, with an estimated final tally around, say, 650 million or so. More if Universal bundles it with something else during its run to pad the numbers and if they don't prematurely announce a home version to kill the legs. Titanic is within reach but dicey depending on holds.

I still haven't seen Jurassic World yet. I decided to wait for the Imax to pick it up in my town.

Most straight guys won't exactly flock to a film about male strippers, but Magic Mike XXL got a 4% male audience share. That's insane.
The first one drew like maybe a 25-30% male crowd. Were they turning dudes away at the door this time?

Were they turning dudes away at the door this time? Magic Mike had to compete with Jurassic World, Terminator and, to a lesser degree, Ted 2. Pretty sure that play a massive role in reducing the male audience.

Magic Mike XXL will still easily make a profit. After its first weekend, it already has earned more than double it's budget when you add domestic and foreign box office. It was a very low-risk movie with a low budget.
