This.

Oh, come the fuck on.

???? Did you mean to post this in the classic conversation thread?

Now I'll take exception to that. It's only a healthy increase.

Yes, but it also opened about 16% higher than Inside Out did. Also, Pets will face tougher competition on its 3rd weekend than IO.

Well, that's a bit less impressive for Pets.

Totally normal. Monday was a Holiday.

You didn't quote the person you responded to, so I assumed you raised the possibility.

Riveting investigative journalism right there.

In the summer, maybe.

Yeah, Pets looks like a real breakout hit now. Although this % jump is a bit less than Minion's 2nd Tuesday.

I think you're the first person to even mention the $400m possibility.

No, this is not the peak. If anything, Pets is showing that it's just getting started. November 2016: Moana. A contender for a break-out if there was one. December 2016: Sing February 2017: Lego Batman June 2017: Cars 3 (Hey, it can still be big) June 2017: Despicable Me 3 ($300m dom for sure) November 2017: Coco December 2017: The Croods 2 (Maybe $200m dom?) March 2018: Wreck-it Ralph 2 May 2018: How to Train Your Dragon 3 June 2018: Toy Story 4 November 2018: Gigantic February 2019: Lego Movie 2 June 2019: The Incredibles 2 November 2019: Frozen 2 (Maybe. Haven't announced for sure) And those are just the ones we know about!

Is that IMAX?

@keysersoze123 Yeah, Tuesday is never going to overtake Saturday. Saturday just has so many people off work that it's the ideal time to see a movie.

This might be the first year where an animated feature gets an Oscar nod for its screenplay but doesn't win Best Animated Feature (Not including the first Toy Story, of course). The Writing Branch may give Zootopia a nod for its screenplay, as it has done for 9 other animated features in the past. However, we don't know how Moana is going to be received. It might be that Moana is fresh in everyone's minds when the voting takes place, leaving both movies with something impressive on Oscar night.

What did you mean by the Apocalypse face, then?

Nope, I haven't. Sorry if that disappoints you.

Will it be a sequel, though? That's the question.

You might be disappointed that I'm not one of them.

Just recently, the average ticket price for 2016 has been figured to be $8.66, a 2.7% increase from 2015, or $8.43. The year isn't over yet, so the price might be higher by December. Ticket prices are rising faster in recent years than they were a short time ago. In 2015, for example, there was a 3.2% increase from 2014, or $8.17. Period from 2009-2014 increased at an average annual rate of 1.7%, from $7.50 to $8.17. That was a period of economic slowdown and low inflation in general, of course. If ticket prices continue to have 3% annual increases, we will see an average ticket price of $10.04 bv 2021. What do you think of this development?

I finally listened to this song. It sounds like Christian soft-rock. Which I kind of have a guilty pleasure for.

Totally average Monday drop for Pets.
