  1. For me, Dune1 was a 6/10 movie, whereas Dune2 was a 7/10 movie. I felt like the action sequences were little bit flat, didn't have much WOW factor. There just wasn't anything much exciting about any action sequences in the movie. I am glad we did get these Dune movies but I doubt I am ever gonna re-watch these movies again in near future.

    A total of 78.7K admissions were sold over the past weekend, a weak number mostly due to the underwhelming opening of DiCaprio's latest film, 'Killers of the Flower Moon'. Greek audiences do not seem to share the increasingly woke sensitivities of the actor, who usually draws big crowds in Greece. The film had a dismal opening (you can see for yourselves in the table below) and if there wasn't an upcoming holiday weekend, the 100K-admission milestone would be out of the question. 

    WTF does this even mean ? I mean what are even woke sensitivities of DiCaprio ?

  3. TDK had 75% drop on Tuesday following Labor Day...it did around 620K on Tuesday. Barbie's drop seems to be around 72% and do around 900K. TDK did around 26M from here onwards...Barbie has been doing around 25-30% better than TDK recently...assuming this trend follows (with IMAX boost), Barbie should do roughly 35-40M from here onwards...gonna be fun to see if it can cross Jurassic World or not

    Now this is gonna legitimately sound insane, but bear with me a moment.

     

    I think the best, most recent, comp from previews might be... Oppenheimer.

     

    WHAT?

     

    Yep.

     

    The special event ticket price should make it a higher ATP than even Ava 2.

     

    But as @M37 is already stressing, it's more capacity.  We all saw how Barbenheimer caused a legitimate screen crunch.  Sacramento's fabled dark magic was defeated by it, for instance.  We just fucking ran out of room here locally for Thursday showings.

     

    Showtimes increasing during the week-of previews is one of the sources of rapid ticket sales growth, along with folks deciding on seeing a movie that week.  

     

    I have literally no idea how many showings are eventually gonna be given to this film, nor how wide spread it's gonna be.

     

    What I do know is that it's gonna sell a metric fuck ton of tickets initially.  It's extrapolating any info out of those initial sales which is more... challenging.

    With Exorcist now moving back to 10/6, you'd expect this to get more shows

    I don't think you can get as big as Taylor without attracting the GA, just from looking at some demographic breakdowns she seems to be biggest among millennials

    granted this is only looking at the demographics of adults so excludes children entirely, but I doubt that group is overwhelmingly large when the gen z group is significantly smaller than the millennial group. 

     

    Justin Bieber on the other hand WAS huge among teenage girls back in 2011, his concert movie had a 73% Sun -> Mon drop which could still be $5-10m for Taylor's movie if it opens as big as the early presale numbers are indicating.

    Taylor Swift's median fan is probably a millennial liberal white woman

  6. I just checked a nearby AMC in Minneapolis suburbs area and all the allotted 8 shows on Friday are pretty much full except few wheelchair seats...just insane

     

    I didn't count exact number of seats but here are rough numbers

     

    Friday - 800 tickets sold (8 shows - 98%+ occupancy)

    Saturday - 1300 tickets sold (14 shows  - 85% occupancy)

     

    I never tracked numbers for other movies here but this doesn't strike to me as a very frontloaded movie. It's gonna have lot of spillover demand

    It's not a trailer, and again I really don't think a concert movie is going to impact anything as much as everyone thinks it does. They do decent money for two weeks (usually because they open on or right before a holiday) and then in the third week when literally anything else releases the legs buckle.

    I am talking about movie release weelemd...I am talking about releasing this trailer today when social media has been totally filled with the Eras tour concert buzz.

    This is why when people say "there's no way the movie can catch people up on Monica and Kamala" I don't get it. This took literally barely two minutes, and half of it was Carol!

     

    Edit: in fact, looking more closely, this includes the scenes in the movie of them catching up!

    Not sure if today was the best timing to release the new trailer with this Taylor Swift's Eras thing all over the news

  9. Really curios to see Barbie's multiplier this weekend (vs Thursday number). Last 4 weekends weekend multipliers (vs Thursday numbers) were 4.38, 4.49, 4.73, 5.43. It's been increasing steadily...with summer holidays done in most of the country, think we can expect a better multiplier this weekend, not to mention the Cinema Day boost on Sunday
