6) Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (SONY), 2,519 theaters (-281) / $1.3M Fri (-28%)/3-day: $5.6M (-29%)/Total:$387.2M/ Wk 10 NATM legs from here on out gets J2 to 411.13 million. But right now the duration of the rest of the DBO run is secondary to absolute numbers when pitted against NATM. J2 is rapidly (almost exponentially in the last 2 weekends) gaining on NATM's daily/weekend grosses. So if J2 can continue on the same path, it'll have a solid chance at 410 million+. But NATM's retention between 14th to 18th weekend was amazing and it helped immensely with the late legs. J2 will need to rack up massive bumps over NATM from now to the end of the 13th week because it's retention that far into's it's run is still up in the air. But it would be unwise to bet against Jumanji at this point so 410 million + is looking very likely.

BOM's comps for Game Night: Game Night's numbers compare well with the $950k brought in by Office Christmas Party as well as outperforming the $600k for Fist Fight. OCP's FSS was 6.538m (Fri), 6.744m (Sat) & 3.606m (Sun). Weekend came in at 16.89 million. Is this a good comp @WrathOfHan??

Highest Tuesday

Deadline's comps for Annihilation: In regards to comps to Annihilation, there are films like Life which made $800K on its first Thursday before posting a $4.4M Friday and $12.5M opening. There’s also Arrival, which at a $1.45M Thursday yielded a $9.4M Friday and $24.1M three-day.

http://deadline.com/2018/02/black-panther-natalie-portman-annihilation-game-night-weekend-box-office-1202300998/ These are good starts considering that T’Challa is expected to take in more than $104M in weekend two. Through yesterday, he’s made close to $292M and he’ll be the fastest Mavel title to $300M in 8 days, beating The Avengers’ 9 days. Thursday figure should be around (292-277.7)=14.3 million.

In the face of Disney/Marvel’s Black Panther earning $14.2M alone last night for a running total that will cross $300M today, New Line/Warner Bros.’ Game Night and Paramount’s Alex Garland sci-fi environmental pic Annihilation respectively pulled in $1M and $900K. Annihilation was booked at 1,850 venues yesterday and will raise its theater count to 2,012 today. Game Night will play in 3,488. Game Night is projected between $13M-$21M while Annihilation was pegged between $10M-$12M.

https://pro.boxoffice.com/amc-stubs-12-million/ LEAWOOD, Kan.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– AMC Theatres® (NYSE:AMC) (“AMC”) today announced that AMC Stubs, the Company’s loyalty program, has continued its brisk growth and now stands at more than 12 million member households, giving AMC incredible insight into the movie-going histories and habits of more than 30 million moviegoers in the United States. With its AMC Stubs loyalty program now at more than 12 million members, and the U.S. average of 2.6 people per household, combined with AMC’s best-in-class website and mobile app, AMC’s ability to track movie-going preferences and turn that data into actionable marketing initiatives is better than it’s ever been before. “The movie industry is more dynamic and complex than ever before, and data providing insights into the movie-going habits and behavior of more than 30 million Americans is of incredible value to both AMC and to our studio partners,” said AMC CEO and President Adam Aron. “Add to that the nearly 7 million members of our loyalty programs in Europe, and it is clear that AMC is building a valuable trove of information that will benefit the industry for years to come. We have every intention of expanding our global base of loyalty customers to 50 million and beyond in the foreseeable future.” In July of 2016, AMC announced a relaunch of AMC Stubs, to increase the appeal of its paid, premier tier and to add a free tier. At that time, the AMC Stubs membership in the United States sat at approximately 2.5 million households, a membership level that had not changed in approximately three years. During the next year and a half, the household membership level has nearly quintupled in size.

Total Lifetime Grosses Domestic: $207,191,667 28.4% + Foreign: $523,200,000 71.6% = Worldwide: $730,391,667 Coco grossed 6.8 million this weekend. The OS weekend drop is just 15% and we don't even have the actuals yet so the weekend figure can very well improve from these estimates.

Further elaborating on my previous post, here's the percentage comp of theater count drops for J2 and NATM since the 5th Weekend 5th-6th -> NATM (3.57%) >> J2 (3.77%) 6th-7th -> J2 (4.08%) >> NATM (6.95%) 7th-8th -> J2 (5.66%) >> NATM (7.34%) 8th-9th -> J2 (6.44%) >> NATM (10.02%) NATM suffered two back to back heavy theater count drops in it's 10th (24.43%) & 11th (34.86%) weekends. If J2 can retain at a better rate than NATM in the next 2 weekends, then it'll have a great chance at passing Spider-Man (403.7 million) to become Sony's undisputed #1 in the domestic market.

NATM legs from here on out gets Jumanji 2 to 407.43 million. J2 has been steadily gaining against NATM and growing further ahead in full steam in terms of legs since I started the 'NATM Legs' gimmick. After 6th Weekend: 395.4 million After 7th Weekend: 396.8 million After 8th Weekend: 398.5 million After 9th Weekend: 407.4 million The only way J2 doesn't achieve 'NATM legs' is if the former starts losing theaters at a fast clip. A rapid decline in theater counts is the only way J2 fails to clear 400 million because J2 will still finish north of 400 million even if it collapses 20% against NATM from 9th weekend on-wards which is highly unlikely (read 'nigh impossible') atm. So yeah, 400 million is locked for Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle.

Jumanji 2 increased 211% on Friday?? WTF?? 0_o This is unreal. Even BP can't put a dent in J2's run. The 1.87 million Fri. figure happens to be J2's biggest Fri. bump over NATM till date (or at-least in 2018). It beat the Fri. bump from last weekend quite comprehensively (2.22>>1.74). The 3 day/4 day weekend estimate (8.1m/10.6m) from Deadline's also represents J2's best bump against NATM so far in it's BO run. 400 million is basically guaranteed atm. J2 might actually become Sony's biggest movie ever in the domestic market. This is madness.

It's Nafeesa Williams and yeah, she is almost unrecognizable in that particular shot.
