@edroger3 Could you edit your post and put it in a spoiler tag? I don't want to scroll endlessly to read other people's posts

It's a bit interesting seeing a bit of a divide between Inception and Orm here though, and I guess to an extent Menor too. Maybe it's just playing better in coastal cities or something?

Final (I assume) updates from DL for today Expected, but still disappointing for last week's releases if those numbers hold

Classic Katzenberg.

Deadline mentioned WB had this release date planned for Richard Jewell all along, but just wanted to make sure it was ready before putting it on the calendar. Anyways, we should probably expect a trailer in the coming days in front of Joker.

It's really not crazy to say Aurora impacted TDKR, especially after years of evidence from other CBMs. Dark Knight Rises' midnights to Friday ratio (30M to 75.7M) is about 2.472x, which for a CBM is one of, if not the lowest ever, especially for a movie as big as this, and coming out before Thursday previews were a common thing. Even something like Avengers: Endgame did 2.624x, and that was just as, if not more anticipated and was as big of a finale as TDKR. And sure, even if you want to argue DC films are more frontloaded, even films as despised/frontloaded as Justice League and BvS still cleared 2.9x for their preview to Friday. Sure, TDKR's IM wouldn't be crazy high if everything went right, but it's a little silly to say Aurora didn't impact the movie's performance even a little bit.

Papa Feige's already looking into cloning technology so he can get all of this work done faster

....eh, why not?

Yeah it did have 4PM previews. So it's not a perfect comparison, but I like having more than one comparison thrown in. The one thing the past couple years have shown, if I'm being honest, is just how popular and successful the Hotel Transylvania movies really are. We've had so many animated movies in the same release date, and said release date is arguably a perfect one in terms of competition, and aside from maybe Cloudy w/ Meatballs 2 (even then, you can argue its opening was a tad disappointing), none of them have even come close to what the first two movies generated. Guess a lot of kids like getting into the Halloween spirit at that time. Bodes well for Addams Family in two weeks I guess.

If it follows House w/ Clock: 20.6M If it follows Smallfoot: 17.6M So we could get the lowest Dreamworks opening since Turbo, or the lowest Dreamworks opening since Flushed Away. That's disgusting.
