Oh sorry then

I agree with Baumer and Empire, shouldn't be any spoilers here and should be mostly about numbers. I liked it better when the weekend threads got stricter and more spoiler free.

I don't think we've seen that Star Wars can't support that frequency, yet. Out of the 5 films only 1 can really be considered failure. the other 4 are huge financial successes. While not a movie, The Mandalorian is has drawn a lot of praise as well. The issue here isn't how many is coming out but rather just making good, fun, crowd pleasing movies. There also should have been, with the 3 episodes, a better, singular vision.

Looks nice and interesting, though maybe the trailer tried to add too many zings and jokes.

close to a 63% drop. That's a bit steeper than I was thinking, thought it could be at least $10m

Sunday should come in higher, looks like BOM hit it right on the head with their $190m ow forecast.

It's their weekend estimate, not a Friday number

The special edition got around $28m internationally.

Personally, I'd like to see The Black Cauldron get a live action remake. In the PC age, I wonder how something like Pocahontas would work? Lilo and Stich could be great. Also get James Cameron to direct a remake of Atlantis.

Standard practice that IMDb does allowing movies to be rated sometimes 2 weeks before US release. I don't know their official reasoning, but I'd figured it could have something to do with movies not releasing on the same day worldwide.

Well last year neither Black Panther nor Infinity War got it, and they were No 1 and 2 respectively. Instead it went to Incredibles 2. So it could easily just go to Toy Story 4 or The Lion King or they may not expand any.

They wouldn't have to fudge it, just give it their usual Labor Day Weekend expansion in September.

`From 2737 locations, Endgame is playing in 4600+ So far this weekend it's has similar but bit off drops/bumps to Infinity War. A reasonable assumption could be that Sunday will be like that as well. Infinity War dropped 21.5%. That would put Endgame around $47m, using a $60m Sat. But since it hasn't been exactly the same, a 24% drop isn't out of the question either, hopefully it doesn't go higher than that. It could drop lower as well, so basically I think the range is $45-49m for Sunday,

Anything over TFA's $56.7m gives AEG the biggest Saturday not part of an opening weekend. TFA will however gain some ground back on AEG in the next 2 weeks as it still had winter holidays.

https://www.boxofficemojo.com/alltime/adjusted.htm According to that: Jaws, The Ten Commandments, Doctor Zhivago didn't have multiple releases. ET, unless like ANH there's an expansion mixed into that insane 1982 run. Same thing with Gone With the Wind and Sound of Music. https://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=releases&id=et.htm&adjust_yr=2019&p=.htm https://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=releases&id=gonewiththewind.htm&adjust_yr=2019&p=.htm https://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=releases&id=soundofmusic.htm&adjust_yr=2019&p=.htm

When it makes to that mark, that puts Endgame in slim company of only 12 films to sell 100m tickets in the domestic market. That is according to the BOM adjuster so it's not entirely accurate.

Hmm, It's on page 284 for me.

Never seen anything like this before. My 8 screen theater dropped everything but 1 movie (Breakthrough) that isn't Endgame or Captain Marvel for the weekend, Monday, for now, goes back to normal with Shazam, Llorona, etc

I wonder how long the Endgame bump will last for CM, will we see bigger drops than normal for it next week?

No doubt the OW record is falling again. But if it goes over $300m, how long will that stand? The longest it’s been before it was broken again is about 4 years or so going back to ‘75.

Very similar bumps to Black Panther's bumps during its 5th weekend (3/16-3/18). CM- 106% bump from Thur to Fri, then 56.8% from Fri to Sat BP- 106% bump from Thurs to Fri, then 54.5% from Fri to Sat If Sunday does as well, Cap could fall in the middle 30% (34.2% for BP). Probably just a one time instance of this being similar, I'm not expecting Cap to have the legs BP had.

Maybe they are expecting something around a a $42m Sunday. With good wom and some places beginning Spring Break this upcoming week, that's a reasonable expectation.

Didn’t show much, but looked nice though. Full trailer should be awesome. Though I have some reservations about Ritchie’s style.
