  1. Barbie's gotta have one of the lowest Japan to US gross ratios of any movie over $100M domestic that got a release here, woof.
  2. I don't think Universal usually does early access but it does feel like Strays is the exact kind of movie that would have benefitted from an early screening to try and get it in front of a full house and hopefully generate good WOM. But I checked my goto theaters in Pittsburgh and, no pun intended, WOOF.
  3. I think with Demeter as the only wide release those weekend, one that would barely get past $10m in a best case scenario, I think the holdovers are going to enjoy a nice recovery week. I do suspect The Meg is gonna follow Bullet Train's holds fairly closely, given the similar OW and IM, but otherwise mid-to-high teens for Turtleheimer and low-to-mid 30s for Barbie are good targets.
  4. Ehhh Haunted Mansion already took most of the Dolby showtimes so I think that's the film that should be the most worried.
  5. Jungle Cruise achieved $35M off of $2.7M previews, but I think IMs have gotten much more conservative since then. Still think high 20s is in reach.
  6. If we give Barbie the holds of WTCS's second weekend from last year, that puts it at around $94m. Mamma Mia 2 is a lot more conservative at $81m, but that had such a big skew towards older women that it's not quite an apples to apples comparison. Here's something that I don't know got mentioned: If it stays above $90m this weekend, then it overtakes Black Panther as the lowest non-holiday drop for a $150m opener's second weekend EVER. Granted, if it hits $97.5M, it also overtakes The Force Awakens and becomes the best second weekend hold for any film of this size. Either scenario is absolutely ridiculous and I'm beyond here for it.
  7. I feel like a lot of EA tracking is pointing towards $1M previews so I'd be shocked id it's that low.
  8. Noticed that a lot of my local Cinemarks are giving a lot more showtimes to Barbie in Cinemark XD after Oppenheimer had the format exclusively last week. Wonder how much PLF it'll gain.
  9. I'm still not convinced Sound of Freedom, which undeniably hot a cultural zeitgeist, is a watershed moment for conservative/heartland appealing film or just a lightning in a bottle moment when movies like God's Not Dead and Passion of the Christ have been so difficult to replicate. There's a reason each of GND's sequels have gone down steadily, and even Unplanned, one of the most explicitly right wing films of the last ten years, couldn't make it past $20m. If something more explicitly ideological in its text (versus subtext) beyond just "save the children!" which is frankly a universal appeal. Sound of Freedom is blowing past expectations, sure, but there's a reason movies like American Sniper make $350m and Thank You For Your Service don't even hit double digits.
  10. That's a 43% jump from Monday. Last year on the same day, we didn't see a jump bigger than 24% on that Tuesday (Elvis) so hopefully that means good things for everything else.
  11. Oops, should have specified that - was trying to focus on post Father's Day comps. The only comp I found that gets it over $16m is Top Gun: Maverick, and we all know that ain't happening.
  12. Hell, even GL managed a $3.92M Wednesday, so it's already trailing in terms of dailies lmfao
  13. Following the post father's day holds of JW3 gives it a $15.1m second weekend, or a 72.5% drop. And that's with most local theaters keeping PLF for it. YEESH.
