This could have been all of that in a movie ... instead ... well, look at the trailers. Meh.

Don't you know, you can't judge something by the trailers, they could misrepresent the film.

Yeah, I'm sure that's the case here.

While Smurfs will most likely win, do you guys really think it will do 50-60 million? where are you guys getting those predictions from? The 1st one released the same week a few years ago - late July and did under $40 million. I think it had a lot more buzz than this one does.

Smurfs 2 only did $5 million yesterday. Seems really low. That's not much more than turbo did

Baseballking888 · 08-02-2013, 01:39 AM

That OD is very similar to Turbo's opening. I don't think it'll cross $100 million domestic with Percy Jackson and Planes coming next weekend. Could be saved overseas though.

Just saw Wolverine....this movie is awesome!!! I think it will get seem traction in week 2. My vote was Wolverine.

Sure the movie will flop or not do as well as people hope but merchandise sales will be huge. Just like Cars 2.

Early Thursday estimates have Smufs 2 grossing $4.4 million. That's about a 15-20% drop from the OD, which is much better then Turbo.
