Avengers: Endgame Thursday Thread: DHD 21.7M
Caveman Sam replied to FlashMaster659's topic in Numbers and Data
I guess $50M+ implies a ~$180M weekend is possible, which would retain $1Bn as a possibility. To be honest, I don't think $1Bn is realistic at this point, excepting very strong late legs. TFA's $937 is the target to look for at this point. We should probably be looking for a ~$160M weekend for that, so around $45M tonight. -

The Box Office Buzz and Tracking Thread: Electric Boogaloo
Caveman Sam replied to grim22's topic in Numbers and Data
Okay, a quick spot-update from the UK: I went to a midnight showing last night. 8 screens, mostly large (mine was ~600 seats), all starting at midnight, all sold out 100%. Frankly it was chaos! The cinema just wasn't built for that capacity with a simultaneous start time. They had to keep people in the lobby and let them up the escalator in batches, direct people into the screens in batches, and had massive lines for a pre-show trip to the toilets. Forget about getting concessions unless you were a half hour early... And they still had people on the doors turning away walk-ins - and lots of them actually (hundreds of people walking up to a midnight showing? madness...). Was kind of bizarre getting stuck in traffic for 30mins trying to leave the car park at 3am! I went to the midnight showing of IW, and it was busy, but this was on another plane of reality entirely! One more thing I will say: Do not underestimate the legs on this thing. It'll get an A+ cinema score, of that I'm absolutely certain, and people will be talking about it for decades. -

Hopefully it's accelerating now that we're hitting the post-work crowd, but yes, it doesn't seem like it'll hit 30M this hour. Perhaps we're seeing saturation from presales kicking in? -

Also a math nerd 😛 I work in the math department at a University so I guess I'm "living the dream". -

So POTUS projection looking pretty much spot on at the moment... ~560M total for the day seems likely. -

Good method for mental arithmetic; add on half then divide by 10. So 500 yuan = (500+250)/10 = 750/10 = 75 dollars. -
Presales Tracking Thread(Maoyan, Taopiaopiao etc)
Caveman Sam replied to Olive's topic in China At The Box Office
Over ¥550M now... Around ¥570-580M by the end of the day? ¥700M at midnight tomorrow? -
Sticking with my prediction from a couple of weeks back. 212m OW / 610 total.
