According to E! Online, not only did the Jonas Brothers bring in less profit than the Hannah Montana 3D movie for comparison, but it is also losing out the #1 weekend spot to Tyler Perry’s:Madea Goes To Jail. E! Online reports:

The band’s movie not only didn’t live up to initial projections, it didn’t live up to downsized estimates following its underwhelming Friday debut.
Box Office Mojo’s Brandon Gray said, ‘The Jonas Brothers did not live up to the hype.

They were treated like the second coming of the Beatles, and they’re not.’ Madea Goes to Jail remained on top with $16.5 million, per estimates. Oscar-winner Slumdog Millionaire ($12.2 million) was in third, and poised to pass JB3D should the concert film again fail to meet projections.



Jonas Brothers Movie Is ‘Underperforming’

According to E! Online the Jonas Brothers:3D Concert Experience is underperforming in the theatres, stating: ‘ Their ‘unspectacular opening day barely held off the Tyler Perry holdover Madea Goes to Jail for the No. 1 spot, and forced box-office analysts to revise their forecasts downward.

Where once a $30 million Friday-Sunday take was considered possible, if not likely, for Jonas Brothers. ‘When you factor in the ticket prices, you are talking about a movie that’s underpeforming.’ JB3D’s playing at 3D equipped & IMAX theaters, where tickets cost $15-18 each, about twice the national average.

Compared to last year’s Miley Cyrus concert movie, which also played exclusively on 3D and IMAX screens, the Jonas Brothers’ effort is looking especially lame. On its opening day, Miley’s concert movie grossed nearly twice as much money [$8.7 million] on nearly half as many screens as the Jonases’.

Jonas Brothers Surprise Movie Goers

Sorry for there being so many Jonas posts in a row, but it just seems that all the news sent in is Jonas related. The boys announced today that Starting Friday, February 27, Jonas Brothers will take off on their theater invasion tour, a cross-country, multi-city trip to surprise their fans in theaters nationwide and they just may be appearing in a theater near you! The boys have teamed up with NetJets Inc. and Marquis Jet for this nationwide event, enabling them to reach their fans in all these cities in just a few days. Source: Team Jonas.

We have  a pretty good idea of where their midnight 27th surprise will be, thanks to a talkative worker who spilled the news over a month ago. If you read our posts from last month I mention where it is, but I’m not sure if the employee was making it up or really knew it was going to happen, so I won’t guarentee anything, but I hope it is.

Does the idea of them surprising your theatre make you want to see the movie more?
