Your ass needs a new slant too.

You've been saying the same thing for a month. Find a new slant

Charlie's Angels is probably the first time in a while where the soundtrack arguably has more buzz and hype than the movie. And I don't think the soundtrack sold all that well in the first place.

I mean, I'm sure one poor soul will end up watching it.

I'm lazy to find a quote. But discuss this movie I guess

This year, to save me some tears, I'll discuss this movie with someone special.

Come and discuss with us!

Obviously not a perfect comparison, but we had Grinch hitting 270M last year.

FWIW I was looking at other movies, and other movies are in line with your neck of the woods. It 2 was 24.8M, Once Upon 24.9M, Joker 22M. Hobbs & Shaw, another movie that I tracked before adding in those two theaters is at 18.8M, which is closer to Lion King though. Also to be fair, said two theaters are by far the biggest money-makers, as they account for 36% of all tickets sold. Now one of them is consistently the highest-selling theater, but the other one is more on the average side, so it's really overperforming. I dunno, it could course-correct in the coming weeks when more showtimes pop up.

That's good! It was declining (although slowly), so it's cool to see a jump. @Porthos The adjusted seats are now 5,186, which is about 28 tickets, but still only about 68%. I dunno. Part of it might be a lack of good seats in the early hours. Part of it might be Lion King overperformed here. I don't know. I just don't know

Even if it's a case of the film gaining ground, the fact that the gap between this and Lion King is getting smaller and smaller is still a good thing. We'll see what the next couple weeks have in store.

Yeah those theaters played the movie. It's just that I was only just starting my tracking when Lion King happened, and I realized I probably should have added those two after the fact, and course-corrected in the future.

You need a better friend

This result really does put into perspective how massive the It movies were. I get why Pet Sematary and Dark Tower did poorly (they sucked), but this was a well-reviewed follow-up to one of the most iconic King books and horror films of all time, and it's looking to do less than Pet Sematary did. Yeah IT had nostalgia, but it's not like a lot of people didn't watch The Shining in their 20s and 30s in the 80s and 90s through VHS and stuff. I guess Pennywise really struck a chord with people.

From DL

Well, no. With TROS, I added two more theater than when I tracked Lion King. And on that end (though I haven't tallied last night's results yet), TROS sold about 5,158 tickets, which is about 68% of Lion King. It should pass Lion King adjusted in my area, but it will probably take a while. At least, a lot longer than it did for you and @Inceptionzq And btw I will get Frozen and TROS data up soon.
