HOW MANY OF THESE DOG MOVIES ARE THERE

Movie/Date Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday Aladdin 1,725 2,022 2,236 1,760 1,375 1,577 3,989 11 days 10 days 9 days 8 days 7 days 6 days 5 days Pets 2 Early 312 294 331 357 307 254 452 12 days 11 days 10 days 9 days 8 days 7 days 6 days Godzilla 2,389 1,052 1,019 769 607 456 746 18 days 17 days 16 days 15 days 14 days 13 days 12 days Secret Life of Pets 2 64 52 64 54 48 29 65 25 days 24 days 23 days 22 days 21 days 20 days 19 days Dark Phoenix 1,976 686 543 334 229 231 282 25 days 24 days 23 days 22 days 21 days 20 days 19 days Spider-Man FFH 795 556 461 354 290 192 316 50 days 49 days 48 days 47 days 46 days 45 days 44 days Aladdin Last 7 Days (11-5) 47% of Incredibles 2 (85.4M) 330% of Lego 2 (112.8M) 231% of Dragon 3 (127.3M) 305% of Dumbo (140.2M) 201% of Shazam (107.4M) Days 18-5 47% of Incredibles 2 (86.9M) 307% of Lego 2 (104.7M) 209% of Dragon 3 (115.2M) 246% of Dumbo (113.4M) 207% of Shazam (111M) Days 23-5 (minus 21-19) 187% of Shazam (100.4M) 322% of Lego 2 (110M) Days 25-5 50% of Incredibles 2 (90.8M) 217% of Dragon 3 (119.6M) This is still an interesting conundrum. Everything here points to great results, but the only one that could be considered "lacking" is Incredibles, which is arguably the most fitting comp at the moment. Then there's the issue of whether this is pointing towards the 3-Day or the 4-Day. In fact, is Aladdin's holiday weekend inflating things? And people are reporting presales at their specific theater are anemic. I...I don't know. I just don't know. We've been arguing about this movie for weeks now, and I feel like no matter what we argue, we're just running in circles. I feel like we're just not going to know until this actually opens. Maybe this week will give greater clarity? Pets 2 Early Access Last 7 Days (12-6) 28% of Dragon 3 Early Access (703K) There's no sugarcoating this. The presales right now are incredibly soft. And there isn't a major theater difference. I checked some articles, and Pets 2 is doing these shows at around 1,200 theaters, which is about 200 more than Dragon. Either this is a sign people aren't eager to check this one out early, or interest is incredibly low for the movie as a whole. Godzilla Last 7 Days (18-12) 32% of Captain Marvel (48.9M) Days 25-12 33% of Captain Marvel (51.3M) Again, still don't have a perfect comp just yet. I'll probably look into Fallen Kingdom's pre-sales during the week so that I can have something that actually works. But yeah, seems pretty solid thus far. Pets 2 Last 7 Days (25-19) 324% of Hotel 3 (142.9M) 62% of The Grinch (41.6M) Still a little too early at the moment to really decipher anything. Hotel 3 started out very soft, which could be explained due to it opening tickets the Monday following Incredibles weekend, which probably caused an Endgame style cap to all movies. Grinch is different, opening in a deader period, and using that comp....yeesh. Hopefully next week paints a clearer picture. Dark Phoenix Last 7 Days (25-19) 42% of Captain Marvel (64.3M) Day 31-19 26% of Captain Marvel (39.7M) Same movie, two completely different comps. This is another "way too early" film to decipher anything out of this. But hey, seems alright. Far From Home Last 7 Days (50-44) 81% of Captain Marvel (123.6M) Day 57-44 211% of Captain Marvel (324.6M) Yeah, still not really moving the needle in any way. And of course, super early, blah blah blah

I mean...they're not wrong

I don't know how popular Elton is worldwide, but having seen it, I don't think it's as crowdpleasing nor as effective as BR was. And while it's not "intense" with its homoeroticism, it's definitely more "in your face" compared to BR, which unfortunately might impact it. Should do on par with A Star is Born though.

@CJohn

But...it's not 60M

She was...not that great.

but...but...trailer views.

Having seen the movie....yeah, he's gonna be a Globe and done.

No, it's still a biopic, and basically goes through his life story, but it uses Elton songs for certain montages or to express how a character is feeling. Don't know how accurate it is though. Don't really know Elton's history all that well. He's basically a moustache twirling villain, but he's fun Laughs at the funny parts, sighs at the sad part. People clapped at the end three times (!), and it seemed like people had a good time.

Again, that was actually my DOM/WW prediction all along.

It's fun. It has the problems you would expect from a music biopic, but it transcends it all thanks to a strong direction and flair, and fun musical numbers. Sexy Eggsy's sexy, and Richard Madden's a snack.

JW3 woulda hit 60M if Lionsflop wasn't distributing this.

Let me recommend you not look at my controversial predix thread.

Not even watching the trailer. He also filmed it pre-#MeToo, and he donated his salary to RAINN, so he's still gucci

Not even gonna look at the trailer for two seconds.

Get John Goodman and pay as much money as possible to get Rick Moranis out of retirement for some stunt casting. Have Chris Pratt say "Yabba Dabba Doom" in the trailer, and over Endgame confirmed

Honestly, the promise of a modern Flintstones sounds like a great hook already

Sorry if this was already mentioned before, but...
