I am disappointed TP did not do better, as I thought it was a good movie all the way around. I waas hoping it woukd pull out, but doesn't look like it.
But it seems the real life action flicks do better.
I have read the real money is made off merchandise/video sales. So maybe some day Disney will at least break even with TP.

Through 3 weekends TP is at $27.9million. Atlantis was at $43.7 by that point. This is looking ugly, maybe only around $50-60million or so. Yikes.

Only $3.1 million last weekend.

Do you think it makes $50 mil? Will it get a big enough boost from the holidays?

You know, I hate to even mention this, but Return to Neverland grossed around $45 mil...

I wonder if it could have a run similar to "My Big Fat Greek Wedding", kind of a sleeper. I don't see TP as a "gotta be the first to see it" type movie, but more of a 2nd choice type if there isn't a LoTR type movie being released each weekend. I think the extended Christmas school holiday may be a big boost for TP.

I think we'll see it hit around $45 mill like matt said.

my 12 yo sister called it trease island today and i was like "it figures"

I wonder if it could have a run similar to "My Big Fat Greek Wedding", kind of a sleeper.

thats just not possible unfortunalty. TP (i need tp for my) is gonna be out of thearters soon real soon their already dropping screens like crazy. this is a huge bust.

TP lost over 1000 screens LAST week according to boxofficemojo. MBFGW did the opposite for what 30 something weeks

You know, I hate to even mention this, but Return to Neverland grossed around $45 mil...

Even disney has no hope for the movie as they have already begun to announce the loss the movie will cost them in the quarters to come.

I saw it with my 1st grade daughter who didn't particularly like it. I loved it. I thought it looked great on the screen and had the "all important" story. I guess TP will become a trivia question,"What was the greatest Disney animated film no one ever saw?"
