"Jackass 3" apparently, made $20 million on Friday. When all is said and done, "Jackass #4" might be greenlit before this weekend's over. 

YAY! (sarcastic remark)

You think that's bad? Though the reviews aren't great, they still qualify as "fair" at 64% positive. Given the profound low-brow-ness of the Jacka** series, why didn't they praise the other movies from this year that were considered "stupid"?

Wow. This film opened with about $22 MM on Friday alone! I'm impressed! That's the same as Inception!

This movie is stupid on purpose, and critics also say this one is even better than the 2nd one!

Wow, isn't that kinda like having to choose which kidney you'd rather be punched in?? I would guess that saturnwatcher's faith in humanity just lowered. Hopefully, these same people who paid to see the movie will do as saturnwatcher wishes and try to copy the stunts they saw.

Hardcore fans watched the first day.  I'd be surprised if it pulled in over $40 million by the end of the weekend.  I feel its box office is going to drop off steeply.

Not to worry, it will be deep off the charts by next week, hence the DVD release 60 days later --because Jackass fans have such short attention spans...

Unfortunately, for you, it opened with $50 million.

Okay, it was just $10 million short of Inception's first weekend take. 
 
But by next week, "Jackass" will be down to $20 million, if that!

Be honest:
 
Friday's take: $22 million 
Saturday's take:  $16.9 million --  What a drop...  
Sunday's take: $11.1 million --  Another huge drop...  
 
Yeah, altogether it's $50 million, so yeah, I was wrong as far as that goes.  It pulled in over $40 million easily.  On the other hand, I did say its box office was going to drop steeply, and I was right.  It just didn't drop quite as steeply as I thought it would.  
 
The question is now, with as steeply as its box office is dropping, will Jack-Ass 3D make $100 million?  Eventually, maybe?  Usually, a movie that opens $50 million will go on to make $150 million or more by the time it's done, but this movie lacks staying power big time!

I knew this movie had good odds of being #1 at the box office. But I'd never would've guessed it would be the one to beat THE SOCIAL NETWORK.

The day-to-day numbers really honestly don't matter, considering the budget was $20 million. I think it's a rather cheap way to say a film is bad just because people felt like watching it on the first day.  

RESPONSE from Head RAZZberry: The day-to-day numbers do matter, because they indicate word-of-mouth on a film, and when Sunday's number is off 50% from Friday's, that's a clear indicator that audiences are not responding favorably to the film -- In other words, it's movie-goers who are saying the film is bad.

Yeah, thankfully, this is the kind of movie that doesn't get repeat viewing. After you've seen it once for the shock value, there's no reason to see it again (or at least not to see it again while being sober). I'm sure a "Jackass 4" will appear within the next 5 years, or whenever Johnny Knoxville runs out of rent money, whichever comes first.

Again, MWG, be honest:  
 
I didn't say Jack-Ass 3D was "bad just because people felt like watching it on the first day."
 
I said all the fans went to see it on the first day, and after that, the box office started dropping steeply.  For full disclosure, I also said it wouldn't make $40 million the first weekend, but obviously I was wrong about that. 
 
As to why JA3D is bad, I'd say it's because it's more dehumanizing than a freak show.  These guys are doing these extremely gross, extremely dangerous stunts because people want to watch them do it.  As far as I'm concerned, it's the goofy offspring of the ancient gladiator shows of Rome. 
 
Now you know why I think JA3D is bad.

I haven't seen any of the Jack Ass movies because they aren't for me but I won't reserve judgment. People who defend these movies make a good point: These guys know they're being stupid and dumb. Nobody is saying otherwise.  

RESPONSE from Head RAZZberry: And I would argue that admitting they're being stupid doesn't excuse their also being potentially dangerous -- The audiences to whom these films appeal are largely impressionable young teens who are likely to emulate what they've seen in the movie. If this weren't an issue, do you honestly think Paramount would have that disclaimer advising against imitating the movie so prominently featured in every JACKASS ad??

I wonder what would happen if one of the guys actually died during a stunt??
