Barely any competition for the next few weeks will definitely help. But I doubt it'll be able to reach the first one..- 10,810 replies

Avengers 3D share has been barely existent though so it isn't too much of a factor. Stunning Saturday for Age of Ultron!- 10,810 replies

It was decent. A standard Marvel fair IMO but nothing exceptional. Entertaining for sure. Plot could have been a bit better. WOM I'm hearing is mostly positive from the GA but slightly negative from the hard core fans.- 10,810 replies

We are a very family centric cinema so our weekend bumps are probably higher, but we'll find out soon!- 10,810 replies

Insane day at work! Avengers is roughly at 3500 admits including presales for tonight. We did around 1000 on Wednesday for comparison. And the first Avengers did 3900 on Anzac day. 3D share is much lower though, going from 60% to 25%, but we've had about half of the surcharge increase in prices so it shouldn't be too big a factor.- 10,810 replies

If we compare my site numbers on Thursday compared with presales today we're on about $3.5m so far with sessions all day very full. Should easily be a $5m+ day!- 10,810 replies

Presales for us tonight are huge. We had less sessions last night and tonight's are already 30-40% busier. Could easily see a Friday number approaching $4m.- 10,810 replies

Tonight and tomorrow will be where the walk-ups really increase. I'm thinking this: WED: 1.4 THR: 2.9 FRI: 3.5 SAT: 5.1 SUN: 4.0 Weekend+previews total of $16.9m, weekend total of $15.4m. This is not during any school holidays so the Sat and Sun number will be significantly higher. Saturday we already have 20% more tickets bought then we sold for the Wednesday previews.- 10,810 replies

Its not school holidays anywhere except I think WA while FF7 had school holidays and the lead in to easter allowing it's Thursday to be much larger. I except a big spike tomorrow and Saturday compared with FF7 which basically was the same everyday.- 10,810 replies

I'm thinking around $3m-$3.5m based on my site's numbers. But it is a pretty small sample size, but we were well under F&F7 OD but just over double TA2 previews in admissions.- 10,810 replies

Presales are unusually strong for tonight, many sessions are already half full. Definitely going to be huge, whether its a $13m+ huge or a $17m+ huge is another question that we won't know until tomorrow.- 10,810 replies

Australia (at least from my personal experience) is really bad with pre-sales. They are definitely way higher than FF7 down here, but as I mentioned earlier, they mean nothing compared with the fast bulk of people who walk up and buy tickets. We've been struggling to push online and mobile ticket sales, even on crazy days like Boxing day and Anzac Day.- 10,810 replies

Today was significantly quieter than yesterday (so far). But the sun is out in Melbourne so that might be helping. Yesterday was a monster of a day, and I have a feeling tomorrow might be also.- 10,810 replies

As expected for Insurgent.. Good start for Home! Let's see if it can keep the momentum over the holidays. I'm thinking $4.5m for Cinderella at this stage?- 10,810 replies

Seems like Jupiter Ascending and Kingsman both overperformed at my site compared to the nation. But the drop for 50 Shades was about right. Village has some sites with VMAX sessions for both Jupiter Ascending and Fifty Shades (Southland and Fountain Gate) and some with only fifty shades (Crown and Knox).- 10,810 replies
