Depends on the country. It's out on wednesday in France but it looks like a very confidential release, I doubt I will be able to see it where I live. I think it's already out in the UK.

When the hell do actuals come out?

Yeah, this seems kinda late.
I swear that 2 out of 3 times I go to bump this thread after hours/days of inactivity, someone else posts minutes before.
Actuals are out in a few hours, but Gitesh said that revised estimates from this morning point to the Boss keeping the lead by $200k. BvS is still $23.4M but revised numbers for The Boss is $23.6M.

They're not gonna release them because they're afraid of how many people will lose their jobs (& possibly lives) if it comes out that BvS actually came in under The Boss by a significant margin...

the boss with 23.6 and bvs with 23.4
boss/bvs FRI $8.1M/$6.1M, SAT $9.8M/$10.7M, SUN $5.7M/$6.7M.

I do wonder what the drop's gonna be like. It's gonna lose a lot of theaters this Friday, I believe.

Normally such a difference wouldn't matter, but it is a big PR blow to WB.
It likely loses all of its IMAX/Large Format screens.

It'll be out of the top 5.

With Music Meister as the villain.
Not necessarily.
If Criminal flops, there's room in the top 5 for this week's top 3.
If Zootopia is hit harder than usual by the Jungle Book (given that they have a lot of demographic overlap), BvS could stay ahead of it and take a fifth place finish at worst.
A 35% drop for Zootopia would require a 59-60% drop from BvS for the streams to cross this weekend.
A photo finish, but hey, winning's winning.

It doesn't matter if The Boss wins by a quarter million or a million. Winning is winning.

Even with this week's narrow loss, BvS still enjoyed the longest first place run for a DC film in 4 years!
Caught BvS in patented Real3D on Saturday.
My wife and I were the only two in the theater until a couple of minutes before showtime. Then another couple showed up. A couple with a small child walked in a few minutes after start, which we found a little odd considering it was a 9:45pm start and the kid looked to be all of 6-7. They walked out about half an hour later.
The Boss, indeed.

That's up to the writer and director.
The point is there's nothing inherently wrong with the concept of Cyborg and the film team has a chance to make that character work without the baggage some others characters have.
Yeah, definitely not a kid friendly movie.

The Boss got my money. My wife and I loved it.
Anyone getting fired over BvS? I'm torn about whether that would be good in the long run or if it would generate even more bad PR.

Evidently not
according to warner bros pr it's exceeding expectations!

It's gonna lose IMAX to Jungle Book but it'll probably keep the large screens for another week.

Around my area The Boss already took over most PLF screens. Any that are still showing BvS are only showing the 2d version.

I just want to put this out there: After watching Room, Brie Larson should play Captain Marvel.

I'm only doing rough guesses based on my theater. We have three large screens and one IMAX. BvS, Zootopia, and The Boss have taken each spot.
More like:
"So a movie that bastardized several of the most iconic comic book characters on earth is losing to one that represented the character perfectly on screen."

Anyone think Barbershop is gonna do well?
I predict a good weekend with a steep drop the week after.

$55-60 million tops?
Most people don't know anything about any Superheroes.
They just get their scoop through the movies.
You can say that for most Marvel cinematic characters these days...they're like walking-talking memes.
It's getting to be like that even in the comics.
Yeah, but everyone knows Batman and Superman. My GREAT-grandfather knew who Batman was and why he fought crime.
Which is why a film like Batman v Superman - starring arguably the most familiar heroes of all time - getting beat by something like "The Boss" as its stiffest competition on its third week is rather embarrassing.

That's what happens when you make icons unrecognizable in comparison to their iconic selves.

Jungle Book is already at 12% on movietickets.com. It's gonna be a monster weekend; I'm thinking a $80+M opening easily.
Jeff Goldstein is going to get so good at spinning he'll get his own solo DCEU movie.
I know that it's fun to make BvS jokes, but the Boss is on the lower end for McCarthy since Bridesmaids. Its performance is nothing special. BvS just has shit legs.
I'm thinking the same thing. This will be an interesting test for Disney's live action stuff. Cinderella is the only film they've had in that line to date with good reviews, and that story is pretty female centric. If Jungle Book continues to get sold reviews, I think it can open in the Oz range. Who knows about legs yet (thought all of these films have had decent legs).
