It’s in over 3,000 theaters, which is a wide release.
Based on Friday’s box office, it’s projected to earn 13 million for the weekend. Not stellar, but Clint Eastwood’s films rarely open huge; instead, they open modestly and play forever.
So you’re right that it will take some time to determine whether “Trouble with the Curve” is a hit or not.
The MSM might have the power to push polls, but with today’s electronic box office reporting, they can’t skew the numbers and make a hit seem like a failure or vice versa.
If the MSM had had their way, “2016” would have vanished without a trace. But just as they ignored the movie, moviegoers ignored them, and now “2016” is cleaning up at the box office.
Thanks for the correction.
I couldn’t find any weekend sales charts for “Curve” at Yahoo, BoxOfficeMoJo, or MSN.com.
I was looking for “Perks of Being a Wallflower,” too, which is Emma Watson’s first feature release since “Harry Potter.”
First week for that, too, and same result - zero chart info.
Do you remember the link you used for “Curve?”
Thanks.
