Box Office Poll for the Weekend of May 3!
- TINY EXPLOSION: $30M or under 109
- SOLID EXPLOSION: $31M - $39M 299
- KA-BOOM!: $40M or over 150
Hey gang, we're not on the road this week, so I'm back on my box office bullshit!
Despite having a so-so relationship with David Leitch's directorial efforts over the years— Atomic Blonde (didn't see), Deadpool 2 (fine), F&F: Hobbs & Shaw (terrible), Bullet Train (not good)— I'm actually pretty excited for this weekend's The Fall Guy!
I'm a fan of both Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt, and frankly, I think this looks hilarious and charming. Plus, the action bits we've all seen 40 times in the trailer by now looks awesome. And it appears the forecasting around this one is also pretty excited.
Going into this weekend (with early Thursday shows as well), The Fall Guy is looking to land somewhere between $30M-$40M. Considering the film appears to delightfully blend action, comedy and romance, we've got a real four-quadrant picture on our hands here, so that opening window seems totally plausible.
But as we were reminded over the last few weeks, no movie is immune from under-(or over)-performing, so let's roll the dice! Vote below where you think The Fall Guy is gonna crash land!
We'll break it all down on Monday's On-Screen Live, starting at noon/eastern on our YouTube and Twitch channels!
Have a great weekend, y'all, watch a bunch of fun stuff! - Andrew
