Weekend Box Office 6-11: Good Start for SUPER 8

#1 Post by AndyDursin »

As I wrote in the other threads I liked SUPER 8 in spite of its shortcomings and when compared to the glut of 3-D sequels/super hero movies, I am rooting for it to do well. Certainly is off to a good start (keep in mind the budget was reportedly pretty modest also).

1. Super 8 (Bad Robot/Amblin/Paramount) NEW [3,379 Runs]
Friday $12M, Estimated Weekend $35M

Friday $7.4M, Estimated Weekend $24M, Estimated Cume $98M

3. The Hangover Part II (Warner Bros) Week 3 [3,644 Runs]
Friday $5.7M, Estimated Weekend $17.5M, Estimated Cume $215.3M

4. Kung Fu Panda 2 (DWA/Paramount) Week 3 [3,929 Runs]
Friday $4.8M, Estimated Weekend $17.5M, Estimated Cume $128M
