tracking chinese new year is always the most fun box office time of the year. All real time data and mammoth grosses that are not possible in any other region including US. So fun
people who mention football dont know anything about box office. Football playoffs happen every year so what's so special about it? Every december movie faced the same playoffs and historical comparision is how we predict so mentioning football is IRRELEVENT as it is a COMMON DENOMINATOR.
why would the nfl games this weekend hurt it anymore than it does for every other december release? whats the point of even mentioning them when they are standard.
these are the kinda stats that make me feel avatar 2 will 100% reach $700m. There are many stats like this where all the movies around it made $700+ so it just makes me more and more confident it will reach that mark esp with these good legs.
the frequency of people going to the movies is obvi less as seen by the annual gross. However people will still show up to blockbuster events and it's atleast 95% for event movies as it was before. Just look at NWH and that was in a far worse environment. A2 doesnt get to have that excuse and it's covid excuse in most regions is almost non existant.
it has to outperform TFA's remaining run by about 40%. It's only beating it by about 10% the past few days. TFA's drops are harsher starting week 6. So it's really gonna depend on late legs. It's gonna be very close ill give it a 35% for now.
the afternoon IMAX show in my area is significantly more packed than it was wed and thurs, almost double the seats filled at the same time. I think we see a big jump today

holiday legs were just as good as originals. no non cameron movie can compare
i mean the run before christmas was looking kinda slow. it completely did a 180 after that so in hindsight yes but before that I guess it made sense. I think the main factor here is people only want to watch on IMAX 3D and dolby ect so they waited and waited till they got a chance to. Many are still waiting, so TGM is going down I fear.
