Title: Generation Iron - Weekend numbers and Expanding!
Post by: El Diablo Blanco on September 23, 2013, 01:19:46 PM
It made $245,000 on 55 screens for a per screen average of $4,455.

To compare

The number 2 movie of the weekend "Insidious Chapter 2" made $4,596 per screen
The number 3 movie of the weekend "The Family" made $2,265 per screen.

Another movie that debut this weekend "Battle of the Year" made $2,490 per screen.


Not bad for GI.  Wonder If they are going to try a wider release.

Not a lot of reviews in so far but 4 out of 5 top critics on Rotten Tomatoes give it a fresh rating.

They should put it on Amazon Prime and do a media blast to bodybuilding mags and websites worldwide. They'd make some nice coin there. make it 5 bucks to rent 3 days on Amazon Prime and I think they'd do very well.

So basically they've managed to pay like one tenth of the cleaning bill.

I understand that GI isn't like a second Pumping iron, since times have changed, but I like documentary like productions, just like the ones from Mike Pulcinella. I wouldn't watch if it was just another boring training or seminar installment.

a single guy could easily afford professional cycles on an average salary, especially if he can get decent deals from AIDS patients (in usa, see BFG theory) and other roid peddlers

I ain't gonna puke, but very true. I think you could watch porn and give head to dudes, and still be more straight than a ton of these guys on the board.

Some people just like to lift and see how these guys get insanely huge.

But why pay to see it? You can get all kinds of shit like that on youtube.
