And they’re not that bad! The Project Greenlight film, The Battle of Shaker Heights opened this weekend in New York and Los Angeles. Next week it rolls into BOSTON , CHICAGO, CLEVELAND, DALLAS, PHILADELPHIA, SAN FRANCISCO, SEATTLE, and DC. The final episode of PGL had marketing execs saying BOSH need to explode (e.g. average over $20,000 per screen) to warrant continued distribution. Those are impossible numbers. BOSH did average of $10,000 per screen which isn’t too darn bad.

Box Office Mojo has weekend charts that give the big picture. On the five screens, it made $52,000. It was ranked 35th in a field of 37 films. It doesn’t sound good but if you LOOK at the charts, you’ll see the per screen averages are far higher than many other films. They’re not GREAT numbers but they’re not horrible either.
