Weekend Estimates

Top 10:
5 points - Captain America: The Winter Soldier, $96.2M
4 points - Noah, $17.0M
3 points - Divergent, $13.0M
(God's Not Dead, $7.7M)
1 point - The Grand Budapest Hotel, $6.3M
Muppets Most Wanted, $6.3M
Mr. Peabody & Sherman, $5.3M
Sabotage, $1.9M
Need For Speed, $1.8M
Non-Stop, $1.8M


Mr. Peabody crosses $100M, as does Divergent.


PTA:
5 points - Under the Skin
4 points - Captain America: The Winter Soldier
3 points - Dom Hemingway
2 points - Island of Lemurs: Madagascar
1 point (Feb/Mar) - The Grand Budapest Hotel
1 point (Apr) - ????

No word yet on Alan Partridge or Nymphomaniac Part 2.

And if it holds, that one point would give TGBH an even twenty.

[Chienfantome]

I'm glad about Under the Skin. I've put it on quite a few slates.

So it's Nymphomaniac Part 2 that gets left without a chair.

So it's Nymphomaniac Part 2 that gets left without a chair.

No real surprise here. The first one didn't do such solid business, and the sequel, given how lukewarm the reception for the first was, was bound to have much less impact.
I'm disappointed for The Grand Budapest Hotel, that it didn't get that Top 5 point after all.

[Shrykespeare]

Agreed.

BTW, Chien, just throwing it out there... can you get a new picture of Kevin for your avatar? We've been looking at that particular photo for a few years now.

[Chienfantome]

Well at least it's the second avatar I've had since the creation of this forum, for quite some time I had an "In the Mood for Love" avatar. I know some, here, who never changed avatar.... *cough* Six *cough*....

But I agree it's been quite some time, so maybe I'll change it (although you can't do better than Kevin in "A Perfect World"...

[silversurfer19]

I know some, here, who never changed avatar.... *cough* Six *cough*....

Didn't six used to have a Larry David avatar?

[Chienfantome]

Six, enlighten us. I can't remember any other avatar from you !

[BrocksterDuex]

Pretty much the only Avatar I pay attention to is Geezers. I hope he changes his soon (as much as I still enjoy that pic of Ms. Adams).

[numbersix]

Think I had another one of the Number Six character at first, then switched to this. I prefer to remain iconic. My iconic nature being my appreciation of a cult TV show.

[Shrykespeare]

I was going to pick on you too, Six, but at least your picture isn't a closeup. If you're attached to that photo, who are we to tell you to change it? (Same goes for you, Chien.)

[Chienfantome]

Having been a true fan of Quaid in my youth (well, it wasn't that long ago...), I must say I love your new avatar Shryke, although I would have chosen a photo from an iconic role of his, had I been you

[Shrykespeare]

Well, I have to choose a photo with dimensions around 150 x 150, which doesn't give me a lot of options.

[Chienfantome]

You can always resize a picture yourself Shryke, that's what I do.

Think I had another one of the Number Six character at first, then switched to this. I prefer to remain iconic. My iconic nature being my appreciation of a cult TV show.

Too iconic probably, Six, because when I first met you, I couldn't recognize you. I remember waiting for you on a Dublin square, seeing you arrive and thinking "Naaaaaaaa, this can't be him, he doesn't look like Patrick McGoohan".

You can change the dimensions. Use link off site and change the dimensions to what you want.
