  1. Man, the BO is so unbelievably dead, holy.
  2. "Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé" is also quite a bit worse at 2.92x and I'm pretty sure that's actually the record. Not sure if we should count it though.
  3. The Color has finally decided to have some nice drops. Too bad, it's too late now.
  4. On social media, it seems like The Color Purple is really hated by black men. It's quite rare for there to be such a schism between the taste of black women & black men. Normally one gender might simply be indifferent to a movie loved by the other one, such as The Little mermaid remake, but in the case of TCP, several black men really don't like that the movie is portraying a black man as a douche (to put it lightly) which has caused radioactive WOM amongst them.
  5. I agree, this holiday season has been way more exciting than 2019 and 2021 for me (2022 is a bit weird because Avatar sort of spiced things up). The fact that the top grossing movie only accounts for about a fifth of the box office is amazing. hopefully things stay the same. 2024 sadly looks almost guaranteed to be lower due to the strikes so we have to wait for 2025 to measure the progress of the post-pandemmic recovery.
  6. If those numbers end up being right then Migration is actually currently having better legs than Puss in Boots: The Last Wish. It's probably not gonna hold as well in January and February but since it's gonna be the main animation movie during those months, it won't fall off either. A $120m+ total seems at least 90% likely now.
  7. It would still be crazy to have two animated movies have a 10+ multiplier in successive holidays (in fact, pretty much the same weekend).
  8. I'd assume because pretty much every kid is out of school while adults still have to go to work (for the most part). It's the same reason why adult-skewing movies have stronger Friday and Saturday bumps than kid/family movies in the peak summer months of June and July. edit: Oh my response was more about the age rather than racial part of the demos.
  9. I've just realised something. Assuming TCP's budget is actually $90m-$100m (from Oprah's interview)... the movie can be considered a bomb, right? It's not gonna do much overseas.
  10. Migration's number isn't boring. It's gonna have perhaps the best legs of a wide release this year.
  11. It could also mean that the legs won't be as good because of limited appeal. I was expecting a 50% black share (similar to renaissance by beyonce) but 65% is kind of insane. Far more lopsided than even Black Panther or The Woman King (iirc). Though I have to say, Warner bros deserves an A+ for their release strategy this month, they somehow managed to have different movies that collectively appeal to pretty much every demographic just in time for the holidays. There's not gonna be any cannibalization of sales between Wonka, Aquaman or The Color purple as all three go on to make $100m+.
  12. Why would it fall faster than TLJ? That movie had some pretty bad holiday legs. Aquaman has mixed WOM but it's much smaller OW should allow it to have better legs than TLJ imo.
  13. Isn't the subject matter pretty dark? I'm surprised that it's gonna have such a big gross on a joyful holiday like christmas.
