I was shocked to see the $33 million tracking number for Lucy. An R-rated movie from Luc Besson starring Scarlett Johansson? I mean, I had fun with it, but what about that suggests such a high turn out? Is it carryover from Johansson’s role in The Avengers? Either way, it’s on its way to hitting that number after $2.5 million from Thursday night showings and that’s a number without any kind of 3D ticket inflation. Speaking of…
Dwayne Johnson‘s Hercules is going to largely fizzle and fade domestically, kicking off its 3D and IMAX 3D ticket gouging with only $2 million last night, on its way to a $20+ million weekend, pretty much lining up with the predictions below.
Otherwise, no one is talking about And So It Goes and no one will after this weekend.
