I wonder if actuals will be different from the estimates

If only the marketing for Pacific Rim Uprising was this good.

ARE SCHOOLS STILL GOING TO BE IN SESSION TOMORROW?

I thought The Thirteenth Floor (1999) and Ghosts of Mars (2001) were some of the last films to go all out with building large sci-fi based sets building up from the 80s and the 90s. Around 2005 gadgets were pretty freely accessible with tons of access vs security and computers got smaller w/ portable access too. Infinite scrolls and crossroads where oddities and everything else becomes entangled. useless data on human progress for decade. X-Men and X-Men 2 and Jurassic Park 3 had decent non CGI sets I believe, but I think The Chronicles of Riddick did not help with the all out sci-fi extravaganzas and loosing money. Final Fantasy put a studio out of business and Assassins Creed and Tomb Raider did not seem to want to go all in like with Warcraft which can sometimes lead to overspending.

as of now, I will probably see Book Club first based on these totals 1. Book Club - 68+ 2. Life of the Party - 53.00 3. Overboard - 49.75 4. I Feel Pretty - 49.00 5. Breaking In - 46.50 6. Truth or Dare - 40.75 and Game Night based on these totals 1. Game Night - 69.00 2. Blockers - 60.00 3. Tag ~ 45.00

^^ I'll add I think the MCU was a continuation of X-Men and Spider-Man but became like the James Bond franchise and Fast and Furious franchise that is constant on the film schedule.

2004 was also a fallen year for cinema IMO where The Matrix and LOTR trilogies had concluded with only ROTS on the horizon. good thing the DC movies picked it up when SM3 dropped

The following year Revenge of the Sith opened to 108 and finished around 375. This makes 620m+ seem reassuring for Incredibles 2

ID4-R performed miserably from Independence Day in the 90s making 300 + over 500 OS. I guess this could happen with TLK too. The Lion King. not Transformers: The Last Knight (2017)

new prediction Christopher Robin - 25/125 Marry Poppins - 40/200 Dumbo - 75/225 Aladdin - 80/240 Lion King - 200/600 Mulan, Jungle Book, Little Mermaid all coming out soon, but by different studio or what?

Avengers 4 will probably out open Avengers 3. Spider-Man 3-like hook. . I think Avengers 4 be frontloaded like Civil War and Harry Potter 8 (minus previews)

The Cars Land gift shop could help fund the building of an Incredibles Land adjacent to it, lol.

Ant-Man? They could always try and throw it out in as many showings that Incredibles 2 had this weekend and see what happens. They might loose some money doing that though.

Jurassic World 2 - If only they decided not to blow up the island and drown the herbivores in the introductory trailers

to not take your mind off of what you were thinking about. to stay in deep concentration, and still see all your surroundings... difficult?

big crowd size for Superfly?

any comparisons with Jurassic World vs Incredibles w/ presales?

imo movie numbers are a good and fun distraction.

I believe the first set of numbers should be out in about 3-4 hours

I thought Incredibles 2 would suffer because the announced plot states it takes place right after the end of the original. That would make it seem like rewatching part 1 a priority vs like Harry Potter where you just dwell in the dark and get back on board the Hogwarts Express. the killer demand that brought in a ridiculous 18.5m in previews kept up with the unpredictable jump to 59m. weekdays are likely to find Finding Dory strength. Dorys Fri = Sat which equaled about 0.43 of Monday. Using this for Incredibles 2 of 53m Friday is 22.79. what is going to happen Thursday though? Jurassic World is supposed to be set 3 years after the original remake. Incredibles 2 could be on path for another 18.5 next Thursday. Jurassic World made 18.5 back in 2015.

holdovers could be doing real solid right now with spillover from any unexpected overflow

Hereditary with 2.2 Friday, don't see how it goes below 7.

here is what I could come up with... Toy Story 3 - 37.2 + 37.2 + 32.1 + 15.6 + 15.1 + 13.5 + 13.1 18.0 + 22.6 + 18.8 + 8.9 + 8.2 + 7.3 + 7.5 Finding Dory - 45.6 + 45.6 + 34.7 + 19.6 + 23.2 + 18.1 + 17.4 23.2 + 27.7 + 22.0 + 10.2 + 14.7 + 10.4 + 8.8 and Incredibles 2 - 53 + 59 + 53 + 24 + 26 + 21 + 18.5 26 + 35 + 27 + 13 + 16 + 13 + 12 183.5 OW + 89.5 weekdays = 273 opening week 88.0 2nd weekend (-52%) = 361 10-day total + 54 = 415 17-day total. Likely to retain 4,410 locations going into weekend #3 - 6/29-7/1
