Great, now I have the mental image of Tom Cruise running away with the film reels screaming that it's not ready yet
Someday I want to meet the 3 people that gave this a fresh rating and talk to them about it.
Cruise and Depp back to back under performing proves star power ain't what it use to be

What are the top five lowest second week drops for cbm?
Cruise is a smart cat, MI6 gonna light up that shit.
He'll be treating The Mummy as a punchline by Christmas in chat show appearances.
A film with Cruise and Depp is going to kill overseas. They'll get that far at least.
It didn't draw in the right audiences. I think it was mis-marketed (now that I've seen the marketing). Hope it has some kind of legs, but I predict a quick exit.
I'm on board with this, it's going to be really close. The bump for Friday was bigger than expected and today will be huge.
Dem WW legs.

I think they'll tough it out for another film or two.
Spider-Man (37.8%) and Batman Begins (43.4%) are the best from this modern era I think.
Wonder Woman has a chance to top Iron Man (48.1%) as the best MCU/DCEU 2nd weekend hold.

The people behind this are so stupid.
Dracula Untold was actually fairly well-liked. I for one went into it expecting B-Movie suckage and instead I got a decent medieval monster-flick.
I have a hard time believing this Mummy movie is better.
Since they weren't explicitly posted:
Friday Studio Estimates:
1) Wonder Woman - $15.8M (-59%) - $164M total
2) The Mummy - $12.0M
3) Captain Underpants - $3.6M (-55%) - $36M total
4) Pirates of The Caribbean 5 - $3.0 (-52%) - $128M total
5) It Comes at Night - $2.5M
6) Guardians of the Galaxy 2 - $1.7M (-37%) - $362M total
7) Baywatch - $1.3M (-51%) - $48M total
8) Megan Leavey - $1.3M
9) Everything, Everything - $525k (-51%) - $31M total
10) Alien: Covenant - $475k (-59%) - $70M total

Overseas saving bad movies seems to be a trend.
Not lately, Gunn, Dickerson, Wahaiti say otherwise.

How much was the marketing for WW, if anyone knows/good guess?
I'm guessing Flash's problem is that nobody knows what the Hell they want to make. Because they want Barry Allen Flash, but redoing the TV show stuff is pointless. Should've bit the bullet and used Bart Allen or some such.
You need to check out a lot of movies then.
Also sorry if I was a dick/overtly aggressive. I tend to overreact with these things.
The tv show is terrible nowadays, I'm ready for Ezra's Flash.
I've gone out of my way several times to watch movies with 0% on RT... I'm a broken man.
I think Ecks vs Sever is the most high-profile
I still very much doubt it. Today would need to increase 60%, and we're already in the summer box office season for much of the country.
Box Office Mojo is posting Universal's revised weekend estimate for some reason, even though they don't even have second day numbers yet for most territories. If you look on the foreign page, it is dated for tomorrow. They should just wait for tomorrow morning as is usual.
Right at 20% and hilarious: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/thats_my_boy
Quality aside, they did Reverse Flash brilliantly. So the film doing that exact same story...
The first season was great but it all went downhill after.
And the movies can do Grodd justice, he is a jobber in the TV show. Not something you'd expect from one of Flash biggest villains.

We're good. That was just a friendly disagreement.
Reminding you there's worse movies than Mummy

NO FUK U
Now that's going to be a close battle.
Watch Knight be hovering over 50
Now that would be a good movie
Marky Mark with Excaliber = an extra 30%?
I think Transformers will review like... well the last few
After 4 films, you kind of know what to expect and can't see Bay changing it to make it much worse

As far as bottom barrel RT scores go, I'd watch out for the Emoji Movie.
