Bomba Freeky Giant.
The BFG will compete with GOE for bomba of the year. Tarzan will still make money overseas.

If only they released Suicide Squad this weekend.
What did he mean by this?

The BFB?
Agreed. It should happen next Friday, which would be day 22.
So in the end, Independence Day Resurgence managed to beat Tarzan's Friday without previews number by $500k.

What authority does Bobby have to ban anything? LOL.
Who knows.
Depends, look how fast Paranormal Activity and Saw turned out before the fatigue set.
Jack Reacher is just Taken if it wasn't crap.

GOE?
EvilLore asked him if he could fly and threw him into oncoming thread traffic. Bobby survived. Now he's more machine than man.

WE HAVE RULES HERE
Gods of Egypt. But that is still no contest. Gods of Egypt opened to less than $15M domestic on its $140M price tag.
Tarzan will end up on top of the new release pile for the weekend.
The trash pile, maybe.

I'm gonna see Tarzan next week. But before that I'm going to see The Secret Life of Pets and I'm actually really curious to see it.
Also new Ice Age next week, dubbed though. I hate dubs. Always original, always!

About on par with what Deadline had and above what boxoffice.com had. For once, everything is meeting or surpassing expectations. Especially Tarzan.

I was at the toy section in Target looking for a b-day gift for my nephew and saw that all of the new ghostbusters movie toys were already marked for clearance.

The reviews should be hitting soon. It won't be long until we all know if the lousy trailers were indeed a solid indication of the shitstorm to come.
Not to derail the thread, but out of curiosity, was the Ghostbusters stuff by the typical boy-focused toys or the more girl-focused stuff (or both?) I know Targets have been removing the "boy" and "girl" labels in their toy aisles recently, but since toy marketing has been so linearly black and white since the beginning of time I'd be curious to see if the kids merch for this movie is seemingly pushed towards one gender over the other.

Right next to the TMNT stuff. It was really small, like two little rows worth of toys of the female busters and the Marshmallow Man.

What were initial weekend projections for Tarzan? Low 30s?

Looks like The BFG was a BFD.
...I'll show myself out.

Studio estimates will be out in a couple of hours, but we have some rough Saturday numbers on BOT. Tarzan held pretty well on Saturday. The Purge was as frontloaded as always.
My guess at Friday-Sunday weekend numbers:
Finding Dory - $41M
The Legend of Tarzan - $36-37M
The Purge - $31-32M
The BFG - $19M
Independence Day Resurgence - $16M

I see Bobby Roberts got his Disney checkThis is the only pile Tarzan is going to wind up on.

lol wtf Tarzan
It almost seems like it will do ok

I think it's more like expectations had fallen so low that now that it looks like a "minor failure" rather than outright bomb people are calling it a success.
Yeah. It's Friday-Monday 4-day take will probably be in the $43-45M range, which is bigger than the 5-day opening for Genisys last year. Genisys went on to make $90M domestic.
Definitely not great for a film that cost $180M, but not the dumpster fire we were expecting.
It would be funny to see Tarzan top Independence Day Resurgence domestically.

Yup. Added to the top 10 list above.
Dory is up to $538M worldwide with a lot of markets left to open in.
Don't sleep on Leo playing a giant with a West County accent as a draw...
Man, that would've been GOAT
