Box office Thursday previews:
Neon’s “Longlegs” with Nicholas Cage has the studio’s biggest opening night ever.
The horror thriller made $3 million on Thursday night. This pic has a 90% on Rotten Tomatoes. Is it scary? Only for the other studios.
What happened to Sony’s “Fly Me to the Moon”? Just $875,000 in previews. This does not bode well for the Channing Tatum-Scarlett Johansson romcom. Sony thought it would be another “Anyone But You.” Maybe word of mouth will pick it up.
Kevin Costner’s “Horizon” goes into week three, dropping 740 theaters. You can’t say this movie didn’t get a lot of publicity. Costner was all over the place. But now that Warner Bros. has killed off the 9 other hours of this miniseries, “Horizon” is just going to drain out this weekend.
