Weekend box office~ Still good

  This week Marvel (surprisingly) takes #1 at the box office (If at a pretty low sum) this week. Trainwreck took #3 place but at a pretty good sum despite it's placing. Both movies fell way under my expectations but neither did poorly necessarily especially Trainwreck, they will still both make enough to surpass (especially trainwreck) their relatively budgets due to word of mouth as both movies have been well received and are loved by anyone who sees them. You can tell for Ant-man the Edgar Wright stigma still holds while Trainwreck's smaller scale despite it's big marketing campaign did trip those movies a bit but they still did alright.

Weekend box office
1.) Ant-man~$58 million
2.) Minions- $49 million
3.) Trainwreck- $39 million
4.)Inside Out- $11.5 million
5.) Jurassic World- $11.4 million
6.) Terminator Genisys- $5.4 million
7.) Magic Mike XXL- $4.4 million
8.) The Gallows- $ 4 million
9.) Bajarangi Bhaijaan- $ 2.62 million
10.) Ted 2- $2.6 million

    I'm surprised how far Minions fell from $115 million to $49 million as that's a little over a 50% drop in under a weekend which is expected considering while the hype was huge the response that came from word of mouth ranged from "it's entertaining" to "Don't waste your money on it." I have no idea what Bjarangi Bhaijaan is but from the name it's most likely an Asian or Indian foreign film and I'm surprised it made it into the top ten without much buzz (or awareness of it's existence.) Not much to say as everything else just went down one slot so it was uneventfull every where else.


Tomorrow is my review of Ant-man and the reason I didn't get it up earlier was because of the fact on Sunday I got home really late, on Monday blackout that went on in my street and I'm trying to get my sleeping schedule back in order so I try not to stay up too late. So I'll try to get it out tomorrow but no promises.
