Was posted in the TROS thread, but might as well post it here https://deadline.com/2019/12/star-wars-rise-of-skywalker-fandango-christmas-holiday-moviegoing-box-office-1202799669/

sure i guess

Expecting Space Jam 2 to be some big hit is basically asking to be disappointed.

But if anything, it really does show how underwhelming Jumanji did here when TROS still in the long-term sold more than Jumanji on the first day.

Jumanji: The Next Level Greater Philadelphia Area Seat Report T-10 and Counting Sellouts Showings Seats Sold Total Seats Perct Sold TOTALS 0 56 99 13,524 0.73% Total Shows Added Today: 55 Total Seats Added Today: 13,388 Total Seats Sold Today: 89 Comp 0.166x of Joker 10 days before release (2.20M) 0.717x of Maleficent (1.65M) 0.108x of Frozen II (915K) Adjusted Comp 0.384x of Hobbs & Shaw (2.22M) I threw Joker on there since technically this is a 10-day ticket period just like that film (yeah the Game Awards thing was up earlier, but...c'mon). Then I added in some family hits and the other DJ vehicle. As always, it's important to recognize that I'm comparing films that have had a much longer presales period. Therefore, they already have a head start advantage. In the coming days, with this movie likely having a more rapid growth, things will change, likely in a good way. But...yeah, this first day does feel a little soft. I feel like doing less than 100 is very underwhelming, and it should have at least cleared that. But of course, this isn't really a presales-driven property nor genre, so hey, I'm optimistic.

Hol' up, you a time traveler?

LOL

It's only been a couple hours, so I can't say anything definitive. So far though, it's not anything astonishing, but there's arguably not that much of a rush to get tickets on Day 1 anyways. I'll be much more concrete tonight, though it still won't be perfect.

Prepping things up for Jumanji tonight. But I did a little dig into Playmobil. There's no Thursday previews (LOL), but I noticed that at almost all the theaters I looked at, tickets are only $5. Not a kids ticket, not an Atom deal. Just $5 period for any ticket. I get that this is the epitome of no1curr, but that is EMBARASSING

To be fair, Hobbit/LOTR has an audience that is much more invested in seeing the film upfront compared to Jumanji, which is much more of a "see it when you get to it" kind of film. A multiplier above Into the Spider-Verse would surprise me though.

DISCLAIMER Because Black Widow and Wonder Woman 1984 will both see trailers arriving in the coming weeks, if not days, there will likely be many posters comparing the two films, since both are hotly-anticipated, and focus on one of, if not the most iconic female character of their franchise. There will also be many who will try to put one or the other down for whatever reason. These posts are considered fanboy wars and even trolling territory, which is something the staff does not want to see. Obviously, we do not expect people to say only positive things in either thread. But the staff knows when people are going too far, and whether there's an ulterior motive. Therefore, we will give an immediate threadban for any and all franchise war material. No warnings, no exception. No fanboy wars. No trolling. Immediate threadban for franchise wars. This is the one and only disclaimer we will have in this thread on the matter.

I'm ready.

Agreed. Moderation @Jedi Jat @RockyMountain We don't need to talk about power levels of multi-media franchises that generate billions every year in this thread. Simmer down.

@keysersoze123 I still have major doubts on this hitting that high, but do you still think your data is pacing towards a possible 50M Thursday?
