New month, at least one excellent opener this week and beyond. Let's see if we can get back to triple digit participation. @Bozly needs to feel some heat in March!
GOE has some of the most horrid reviews I've seen in awhile. Target demo doesn't always read them but will be curious if the weekend IM suffers because of it. King Tut probably considering a wrathful resurrection if he's able to see this mess.
Eddie The Eagle is probably looking at $7m this weekend. Triple 9 is tougher to project, but with the slow advance sales and weak polling at my theater, I'm not expecting it to be that far off the British ski jumper.
Not necessarily. The Witch had a preview multiplier just over 5 last weekend. I am projecting a $4.5m Friday especially since the MT sales really aren't strong.
Tough call on The Witch this week. WOM doesn't seem to be great but that's not being reflected in the early weekday numbers. It probably should fall 60+% but could conceivable hold better.
Very surprising number for The Witch - didn't expect much with the tough period horror genre and unproven distributor in A24. It could open to $10m+ this weekend. I'm still leery of seeing it, though - huge horror fan but several reviews (even the positive ones) said it worked better with the Sundance crowd.
Despite a lousy final week, I'm thrilled to have hung on and edge out the formidable Matrix4You! What an exciting month of play it was - looking forward to February!
This past weekend was a bit of an anomaly - there's a handful of these every year that seem to defy patterns and expectations. In another prediction game I used to play, these would be the weeks where someone totally random (who usually finishes 57th) wins.
