Geostorm (2017) Review
The Mummy (2. 01. Financial Information. September 5th, 2. There are a few first- run releases coming out this week, but none of them did well enough in theaters and / or with critics to bother with above the fold, so to speak. There is one exception, The Big Sick, but it is only coming out on VOD this week.
I’m hoping a Blu- ray screener is on its way. As for the Pick of the Week contenders, they are, in alphabetical order, Emmet Otter’s Jug- Band Christmas on DVD, Mr. Mom on Blu- ray, and Rebecca: Criterion Collection on Blu- ray. In the end, I went with the Alfred Hitchcockclassic as the Pick of the Week. In fact, Universal had announced about a dozen films in the franchise, at least one of which had a release date, but no star. Then the reviews started coming out.

For a short time, The Mummy was the worst wide release of the summer. It bombed domestically and even though it did a lot better internationally, it still failed to pay for its nearly $2. Was is unfairly attacked by critics? Or does Universal need to rethink their plans for a Dark Universe? Fortunately, it is also a great film and a serious contender for Pick of the Week. The main competition are Ash vs Evil Dead: Season 2 and Supergirl: Season 2.
September 4, 2017 in Headlines: James Reid and Nadine Lustre’s HALF TO DEATH will now be released on October 13, 2017, and THE SNOWMAN on October 20, 2017. The fourth pic in the franchise, which has a weekend to itself for now. Release schedules for upcoming video and DVD releases; includes related news. Read Paul Shirey's review HERE. PLOT: After a disastrous deep space accident, the crew of a ship carrying thousands of colonists, lands on a mysterious, habitable planet.
I went with Ash vs Evil Dead, but it was a close race. That’s right in line with the $3. Annabelle opened with three years ago, which is an impressive performance for a horror franchise. It’s also the best opening for a horror movie since Split’s $4. January. The first film in the franchise fell away quite rapidly, and ended up with $8.
Warner Bros., especially since the franchise is popular globally. The film has about a 5. The Nut Job: Nutty by Nature is widely expected set a record this week, but not a good one. Finally there’s The Glass Castle, which is only opening semi- wide. Overall, the box office looks weak compared to this weekend last year. Sausage Party opened with $3. Worse still, Suicide Squad won the weekend with $4.
Dunkirk was able to earn first place with $2. April. Overall, the box office fell 2. This is 2. 4% lower than the same weekend last year.
Year- to- date, 2. For example, Alien: Covenant earned $4. If War for the Planet of the Apes has the same legs, it would make $4.
On the other hand, The Mummy earned $2. If War for the Planet has the same legs as that film, it would earn just shy of $6. War has much better reviews than either of those films, to it could have better legs than either of those films. That said, it is also the third installment in the reboot franchise and that tends to shrink legs. The average is just over $5. Some even point to Transformers: The Last Knight as proof that the site can ruin a film’s box office chances.
Besides that charge, the other two main complaints I’m hearing over and over again are A.) Rotten Tomatoes is a very shallow site, especially the Tomatometer. And B.) It is killing in- depth critical examination of movies. I’ll tackle those claims below. There’s good news and bad news. Good news, this is slightly ahead of Age of Extinction’s combined opening in these markets. Bad news, most of it came from China, where studios only get 2.
The Chinese debut was impressive, $1. It also did well in South Korea with $9. It was nearly as potent in Russia with $8. On the other hand, its openings in the U. K. The film has yet to open in several major markets, including France, where it opens this weekend, so it should remain active on the international chart for a while.
It earned less over five days than last year’s winner, Finding Dory, earned over three days. Wonder Woman remained in second place becoming just the third film released in 2. This explains why the overall box office fell 2. More importantly, this is 2. This is a little distressing.
That’s not a great start. Fortunately, Cars 3 and Wonder Woman should have strong holds this weekend and that will help the overall box office numbers. They probably won’t help enough to top this weekend last year in the year- over- year comparison, but it should be close. The film opened in first place in France, but with just $3. Its biggest market overall was China, where it was down 7. Its best market is arguably South Korea, where it added $3. The only major market left for the film is Japan, where it opens at the end of the month.
It is on pace for about $4. Even if it is a bigger than expected hit on the home market, it will have trouble covering its combined production and advertising budget, which is at least $3. The last time they had a $2.
Transformer movie to hit theaters. The last time they had more than a 1. MCU movies. Speaking of combined universes, The Last Knight is supposed to be the creation of a new Hasbro Combined Universe with this franchise and G. I. Joe being the heart of the new universe.
This could fail for the same reasons The Mummy failed to jump start the Dark Universe franchise. Namely, the reviews are terrible and audiences are tired of combined universes being forced instead of growing organically. On the other hand, Wonder Woman remains one of the most impressive wide releases of 2.
Even if it didn’t earn another dollar, it would still have above average legs. All Eyez on Me went off to a fast start, but has a troubling internal multiplier, which doesn’t bode well for its future. Overall, the box office rose 3. Unfortunately, it fell 1. Fortunately, 2. 01. This is a higher opening day than The Lego Batman Movie managed, but family films have a much higher internal multiplier outside of summer, because kids won’t be able to see the movie during matinees on the Friday. If it has the same internal multiplier as Finding Dory had, it would open with $4.
While Cars 3’s reviews are not as good, it earned an A from Cinema. Score, the same as Dory did. Furthermore, Cars 3 is being seen much more by kids than Dory was, as that film had a larger share of adult animation fans, so this should also help its legs. It won’t match our prediction of $5. This is better than The Mummy’s $2. Granted, its Tomatometer score is just 2. Saturday, but this is still a very positive start and the movie will almost assuredly top our prediction of just under $2.
The latest film from Pixar is widely expected to earn first place at the box office, but it is part of the only Pixar franchise that isn’t a critical darling. Rough Night is playing in 3,0. All Eyez on Me is playing in 2,4. Meanwhile, 4. 7 Meters Down’s early reviews were 7. This weekend last year, there were two wide releases, Finding Dory and Central Intelligence, which earned a combined $1.
There’s no way the four new releases coming out this week will match that. Even another strong hold by Wonder Woman won’t make a difference in the year- over- year competition and 2. Dvd Movie The Marquise Of O (2015). The film’s biggest market was China, no surprise there. It earned $5. 2. 4 million on 7,3.
Wonder Woman’s opening there last weekend. The film did even better in South Korea, relatively speaking, with an opening weekend of $8. This includes a record for opening day in that market of $6. Universal. On the downside, the film struggled in the U. K. That’s weaker than its performance here, relative to the size of the two markets. Furthermore, the film only has two major markets left to open in, France and Japan, while its reviews will likely really hurt its legs.
It will earn enough worldwide to pay for its production budget, assuming the $1. On the positive side, Wonder Woman had the best hold for a major super hero movie since Spider- Man and is on pace for $3. On the negative side were all three new releases. The Mummy finished on the low side of already low expectations, while It Comes At Night pleased critics, but not moviegoers. Meanwhile, Megan Leavey missed the Mendoza Line.
Overall, the box office fell 2. This is 5. 7% lower than this weekend last year. Fortunately, since this time last week, 2. We are almost halfway through the year, so a $1.
It isn’t impossible for that lead to evaporate, but it is enough to be cautiously optimistic about the final tally. The studio is projecting a $3.
