After Tuesday's grosses, Barbie is at a 2.95x multiplier and Oppenheimer at 2.88x. Barbie will smash past a 3x multiplier either today or tomorrow, and Oppenheimer will sail past on the weekend. What a joy this has been following their runs. Hoping for some really strong late legs from both.
Peace,
Mike
TDK was 2.56x, Dunkirk was 2.74x, and Inception was 3.21x at this point from a similar release date. Barbie's performance is jawdropping.

I have never liked that movie, but I know I’m in the minority. I am also firmly in the There Will Be Blood Camp, but admittedly I didn’t expect to see several others here say the same haha.
They're both awesome movies in their own way. Too bad they came out the same year. There Will Be Blood is better than a lot of other movies that won Best Picture through the years.

So 93.3% of TDKR's daily number. If that continues the rest of the way, Oppy would finish around $317 million domestic. Oppy needs to stay above 73% of TDKR's daily numbers to reach $300 million total. Seems very doable at the moment.

First estimates for Oppenheimer monday was 4.0 and it ended with 4.7, so there is still room to grow.
Universal has been slower than the other studios pretty much every day, so I guess we will see if this number changes later in the day. If not, then it seems the 3 hour runtime was a big deal for the Canadian holiday boost on Monday. -

I think Parasite may be the least contentious BP winner ever… at least on the internet. I can’t recall any other winner in Oscar history that has less detractors that I’ve seen.
How about No Country For Old Men?

That's a great Barbie number of course, but to me Oppy's is even more impressive. It's been more of weekend movie for natural reasons, so a 31% drop is awesome. The only question mark that remains with it is how it'll react when it finally loses IMAX to Gran Turismo
The main thing to me is that Oppy is now ahead of TDKR in daily gross. It only needs 74% of TDKR's daily gross the rest of the way to reach $300 million. This seems very doable. I dare say it's LOCKED to happen. Would be shocking if it's not able to get there based on the trends so far.

This is interesting. Oppy's $4.75M on Day 18 is slightly higher than TDKR's $4.73M on Day 18. TDKR made another $90M beyond this point. So is Oppy now locked for $320M domestic?? Hard to imagine Oppy will have worse legs than TDKR the rest of the way.

Oppy at 4.75mil slightly up from the 4mil on Page 1
Yeah, $4M seemed kind of low. Glad to see it's much closer to $5M. That's a 31% drop from last Monday. Not bad!

Awesome number for Barbie

Oppy made it beyond Dunkirk’s worldwide total in 17 days. That’s awesome!-

Nah, quite the opposite. I know too much to know the market isn't healthy when a smaller OW wasn't compensated by stronger leg. This isn't just to Oppenheimer, it is to every small film out there with great WOM like Margaret, AIR, the covenant. Their legs aren't stronger when compared to some $100m+ OW opener with similar WOM. And this isn't the same case as compared to pre-Covid.
Oppy is heading for legs similar to Dunkirk, even though Oppy opened 60% bigger than Dunkirk. It’s a great run. Honestly the legs are better than I expected given the lack of action, lack of humor, and 3 hour runtime.-

320-350 final
Seems very unlikely. So far it's tracking very similar to Dunkirk in terms of legs. If that continues, you are looking at a final total around $305-310M.

Wild to think about that 200M would have been an outstanding total before it opened. Now it just cruises past that.
Indeed, gonna pass Dunkirk’s inflation-adjusted $220M by Monday. Also gonna pass Dunkirk’s worldwide number pretty soon.-

Oppy just $132,000 short of $200M in 14 days.

Universal should take some of the money from the upcoming Friday to Sunday box office and fudge it into Oppy's Thursday number so it can reach $200 million in 14 days.

Even if MI ended up doing better than Oppenheimer over the same time period Paramount were foolish to think IMAX would drop a Nolan movie for anything when he is the IMAX guy. That is the major misstep they made I don't blame Paramount too much for being more wary of Indy 5 than Barbenheimer in terms of BO potential.
The dumbest aspect is that Paramount worked closely with IMAX on Nolan’s Interstellar movie. Paramount cannot say they were unaware of Nolan’s IMAX relationship.-

Hope so. TDKR legs will get it to $275M. Dunkirk legs will get it to $320M.-

In my area (Orange County, CA) the local Regal was closed but will soon reopen within the next couple weeks under Cinemark. Maybe Cinemark is gobbling up some of the shuttered Regal/Edwards locations.
I hope this happens with a good percentage of Regal's closing theaters. Keep the options available for customers instead of shutting down permanently and ending up with empty buildings.

Just found out the Richmond Palladium is re-opening as Cinemark Longmeadow, effective tomorrow. That was one hell of a fast turnaround from Regal shutting it down on July 26th to Cinemark re-opening it this week. That's great news for people who enjoy the IMAX & PLF screens, bowling alley, and so forth at the place.

Mission Impossible would never get a September release, it's mostly a summer film with the exception of the fourth film which was December and I think Paramount would agree. I think December 2024 might be an option for the next film since next summer is unlikely.
Mission Impossible was scheduled for September 2022. Should have moved it to September 2023. Even August 18 would have been much better than the July mistake.

Weekdays Thread: Barbie $9.1M MON | $9.6M TUES

Earnings call is also a chance for analysts & media people to ask very tough questions. This happened with my company when they made some big mistakes, spending too much money on projects that were not able to bring enough revenue to justify the expenses. It finally caught up to us a couple years after the projects began. The earnings call was ugly as hell. VERY tough questions from analysts & media people. The CEO and other executives have very weak answers.
