    Pathetic. Surely there are plenty of 40+

    Recently Greatest showman got to 33. As far as before that, Sixth Sense got to 45, but then soon we get into the issue of just a completely different moviegoing era and/or incomplete daily tracking

    Just as I guessed based on the trend I saw(290-300). Its possible very few Imax/PLF's start their shows between those hours and that has a huge impact on sales as compared to Ant 3. It all depends on movie length and when the shows start. 

    Yep, AM3 is 24 minutes shorter than Vol 3 so its possible that those premium screens would have found an extra late show for it in comparison

    Hmmm, is it the calendar configuration?

     

     

    What is the "best" day of the week for Christmas to fall on?

    I think Christmas Thursday has a pretty strong case. You get Boxing Day on a Friday. Saturday and Sunday were going to be strong regardless. It also puts Christmas Eve on a Wednesday, which is often already your “worst” weekday anyway, so least amount of loss there

    At least Call of the Wild is opening better than Dolittle. I am surprised despite seeing OD PS trending good. Its PS numbers were below dolittle but probably did better with older crowd because of ford. 

    Did you see anything unusual about it’s showtimes split? I wonder if Wild had more matinee showings than usual playing to the Ford audience

    Discounting the 2022 films Panther 2 and Guardians 2, shouldn’t even Thor 4 be expected to do better than Strange 2?

     

    That’s a ridiculous floor to set for something, especially since there’s no way that floor is what Disney would bar a disappointment.  I’m sure any increase from the first one, or even staying relatively flat, would be good enough to keep the Strange franchise rolling

    I’m actually not sure those two movies count for Phase 4, which is why Charlie worded it as he did

    I don't see how cracking down on the "franchise war" thread is helpful.

     

    It's the one place you could vent unpopular opinions regarding franchises.

     

    Now that's gone and those unpopular opinions are expected to simply disappear.

     

    Also there's zero proof the the franchise war thread contributed to more geek debates more than the influx of geek properties in Hollywood.

    No one is saying to not discuss unpopular positions. The problem is in my time lurking here, people are not very good at doing so without being a complete a** about it. It’s very obvious. That’s the part they’re trying to curb here

    This might be a daft question,

     

    when the holdovers are losing theatre locations this weekend, do they lose them on the Thursday night now to make room for the preview films? 

    Often if the theater is dropping them for the weekend, they drop for Thursday night as well

    THX. The first movie came out more than 30 years ago and became a phenomenal performance in box office. I was wondering if it could be a hit driven by something like nostalgia because I don't really know how US audience feel about Top Gun.

    I more or less agree that it will be nostalgia driven, but that only takes you so far. Outside of the MI franchise, paramount has struggled mightily to gain much of anything. They need to be on their A game to crack into other audience demos. Most under 20 years old aren’t going to care about this
