Weekend Box Office: Sophomore course in man-thinking sees smaller attendance
Continuing this month of secondary education, audiences filed into the sophomore-level Think Like A Man Too course, paying a $30 million tuition for blueberry-suited Socrates Steve Harvey’s next lesson in how to behave like complementary stereotypes and play basketball. That they instead learned that what happens in Vegas, remains largely identical to what other movies think happens in Vegas, could explain its being down $3.6 million from Think Like A Man: First Sequence. Though it’s also possible audiences were not as eager for reasons beside a lack of Steve Harvey’s nourishing wisdom: As Forbes speculates, it’s possible that those who flocked the original were responding to its being a black ensemble movie with no sign of Tyler Perry in a dress. These days, that market is much better served, to the point where they don’t have to rush to see something just because Kevin Hart is involved.
