    One thing to keep in mind with tracking numbers in August, particularly in these second tier markets which are naturally more variable, is the impact of schools being in session for Thursday night showings. They've already opened in Orlando, Jacksonville & Phoenix, while Raleigh and Minn-St Paul are still in summer, and show higher relative numbers.

     

    Mostly with Keyser in that the MTC1 numbers suggest around $3.5M or so in previews for Blue Beetle (~65k finish), perhaps dragged down a bit by those open school markets being softer/finishing weaker

     

    To add to this, here in SoCal LA Unified (second largest in the nation) started school Monday (yesterday). A bunch of school districts in Orange County will start school today.

    Thought Barbie was a sub-10 film in China before release so for it to end up in the 30-40 range is pretty great tbh even if didn't blow up like these first few weekdays seemed to indicate

    No one saw Barbie doing relatively well in China. WB didn't push it and even local theaters didn't think much of it. You saw screen expansion during opening weekend to make up for the demand and great WoM. Missed opportunity by everyone involved

    Just found out the Richmond Palladium is re-opening as Cinemark Longmeadow, effective tomorrow. That was one hell of a fast turnaround from Regal shutting it down on July 26th to Cinemark re-opening it this week. That's great news for people who enjoy the IMAX & PLF screens, bowling alley, and so forth at the place. 

     

    In my area (Orange County, CA) the local Regal was closed but will soon reopen within the next couple weeks under Cinemark. Maybe Cinemark is gobbling up some of the shuttered Regal/Edwards locations.

    (...) it’s another sexy $20M+ day for Barbie with an estimated $21.4M on Thursday (-7% from Wednesday)

    Oppenheimer made $10M yesterday, -6% from Wednesday, for a first week of $127.8M. Again, in the face of Barbie, that’s an excellent hold. Barbie is expected to gross around $70M in weekend 2, Oppenheimer is around $35M. We are hearing both pics are looking at the best second weekend presales ever.

     

    AHAHAHAHA

    With those Thu numbers, what kind of collapse are they anticipating on the weekend for fuck's sake?

    I'd love to see Deadline's reasoning for a $70m Barbie weekend off a $21.4m Thursday. There's lowballing and then there's what this projection is, ESPECIALLY when they claim "best 2nd weekend presales ever" 🙃
