Re: Bruno Tracking

by **Shrykespeare** Fri Jul 10, 2009 4:50 am

Anyone have any early tracking numbers?

by **BarcaRulz** Fri Jul 10, 2009 4:57 am

Not yet Shryke. Although I will say this; Bruno got the second biggest opening Wed in Australia, second only to Transformers 2.

by Donte77 Fri Jul 10, 2009 8:55 pm

Wow, that is different. I will be watching it but I am not sure how the numbers will be for the movie. Is america too inherently homophobic to watch Cohen in a mesh shirt for huge numbers? Or will the Borat fans flock to it and make it have a huge BO?

Bruno apparently had huge midnights. And I used to play the Box Office Derby and was good at it too but I couldn't move up high enough because of everybody who had been playing for years.

by BanksIsDaFuture Sat Jul 11, 2009 12:12 am

Yeah, midnights were apparently so big, projections have been moved up to $50M OW.

by thswrestler160 Sat Jul 11, 2009 8:05 am

DHD updated. studio is now projecting 37

by undeadmonkey Sat Jul 11, 2009 9:55 am

50 million did seem really high, imo

going to see Bruno today and can not wait. I actually just had a laugh reading reviews on Yahoo and all the negative reviews just stated that was there too much penis and that it was offensive and disgusting lol.

by thswrestler160 Sat Jul 11, 2009 9:10 pm

DHD friday numbers
bruno 14.2/36.8
ice age 8.4/28

Bruno has a C on cinemascore. That's pretty freaking pathetic. Does anybody know what Borat had? I'm guessing an A.

by BanksIsDaFuture Sun Jul 12, 2009 7:09 am

Wow, a C? I'm guessing there's that polarizing effect of the subject matter at work.

by **Buscemi** Sun Jul 12, 2009 7:20 am

That and it's not as good or as humorous as Borat was.

by transformers2 Sun Jul 12, 2009 6:38 pm

it was pretty damn funny i saw it yesterday and i laughed pretty frequently. I do agree though Borat was better.

by undeadmonkey Sun Jul 12, 2009 11:25 pm

going from a $50m weekend to a $30M weekend is pretty bad. This one wont have any legs.

by J.I. Sun Jul 12, 2009 11:46 pm

The Hangover had only an 11.9% drop on the weekend that Bruno came out? Wow. Good for Ice Age, The Proposal, Transformers, and Up. Since Bruno's Sunday is obviously overestimated, I think it is possible for Ice Age 3 to win the weekend.

by transformers2 Mon Jul 13, 2009 1:46 am

i think Bruno will win the weekend then have a decent drop next weekend due to HP.

by BanksIsDaFuture Mon Jul 13, 2009 2:16 am

Woooooow. Bruno is frontloaded to hell, and almost everything held really well. Both The Hangover and The Proposal had drops below 20%, and Ice Age only dropped 31%. Ice Age may have a chance of winning the weekend, depending on how both do on Sunday.

BO EST:

1. Bruno - $30M
2. Ice Age 3 - $28.5M
3. Transformers - $24M
4. Public Enemies - $14M
5. The Proposal - $10.5M

PTA Est:

1. Humpday - $14k
2. Bruno - $11k
3. The Hurt Locker - $10k
4. Ice Age 3 - $6k
5. Transformers - $5k

I think a drop of over 60% is looking likely.

by **Buscemi** Mon Jul 13, 2009 4:15 am

Bruno made 47.4% of its opening weekend total on Friday, good for the seventh largest Friday share of an opening weekend ever.

by transformers2 Mon Jul 13, 2009 7:01 pm

Ice Age did hold really well thats good for my slate.

by thswrestler160 Tue Jul 14, 2009 2:17 am

Actuals are up. ice age didnt hold quite as well as estimates(act. 27.6) but everything is basically the same

by J.I. Tue Jul 14, 2009 2:34 am

I'm suprised Bruno actually rose, and transformers, The Proposal and The hangover all did better than the weekend estimates which is good for all of them.

So, when are we getting a HP tracking thread.
