Guest JMA Posted July 17, 2005 Report Posted July 17, 2005 That's a pretty big drop-off for Fantastic Four.
bob_barron Posted July 17, 2005 Author Report Posted July 17, 2005 It's the 194th steepest drop of all time
Ted the Poster Posted July 17, 2005 Report Posted July 17, 2005 I think FF should get a sequel; it showed a lot of promise IMO. What was FF's budget? Good for Wedding Crashers too. That movie was funnier than it had any right to be.
Guest JMA Posted July 17, 2005 Report Posted July 17, 2005 It's the 194th steepest drop of all time <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yep. You are correct there. Right below Constantine and right above The Day After Tomorrow.

Ted the Poster Posted July 17, 2005 Report Posted July 17, 2005 Oh, good. 194th doesn't sound that bad as say, 9th steepest. I suspect I'm reading that the wrnong way though.
bob_barron Posted July 17, 2005 Author Report Posted July 17, 2005 It's not a horrible drop considering it's a comic book movie. Most comic book films have steep drops like that

SuperJerk Posted July 17, 2005 Report Posted July 17, 2005 The Friday it came out, it seemed like all the internet hacks and professional reviewers were so down on it, and many were sure it was going to bomb. Now we see that its made its money back in 2 weeks. Any chance of a Fanastic Four sequel?
AndrewTS Posted July 17, 2005 Report Posted July 17, 2005 "5 3 Batman Begins WB $5,620,000" Still chugging along admirably. No big surprise for #1, but Wedding Crashers doing so well seems surprising. I guess the slump is really over.
Guest BrokenWings Posted July 17, 2005 Report Posted July 17, 2005 What was the steepest drop of all time?

It certainly isn't a bomb by any measure, though. Anyway, I suspect that FF will get a sequel. I believe it'll make enough money to warrant one.

Youth N Asia Posted July 17, 2005 Report Posted July 17, 2005 I'm glad to see War of the Worlds and Batman still doing well. I liked both of those a lot
Guest Brian Posted July 17, 2005 Report Posted July 17, 2005 Gigli dropped like 81 percent <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's some funny shit.
cabbageboy Posted July 17, 2005 Report Posted July 17, 2005 Yeah but most of those big drops were nothing movies anyway...like something opened at 2 million and then made zilch the next week. I mean Gigli opened at about 6 million and made maybe 1 million the next week. Wedding Crashers will be a bigger overall success than Charlie and the Chocolate Factory I think. Charlie had a crazy 150 million budget, which it might struggle to make back. Crashers had a 40 million budget and should easily make a big profit.
