Nah. JC was back during proper summer. Same partial return to school dynamics that help Sat relative to Fri also hurt Sun night. I would be happy with -30%
Edit: actually I’m expecting -30 and would be fine with it, but would be happy with WOM driving to more like -25
I’m fine with a mandate as long as the vaccines are actually OK, which they are. I do not appreciate the FDA heel dragging though. Mercifully, it should be over quite soon, within a month or so.
Not to sound rude, but this is absolutely despicable. Voluntarily taking the vaccine is good, forcing others to take it is also good, and suggesting otherwise is absolutely disgusting though.
A 185M DC movie which missed OW expectations hard, where the reception doesn’t quite match pre-release buzz and it will total below the previous movie’s OD? Vs a ~100M movie which is hitting OW expectations with a good chance to leg past 100M?
F9 doesn’t quite belong in the same category as BW imo. Its 2nd weekend was depressed by the calendar, adjusting appropriately for the holiday it would just be like a 64% drop.
Which might not sound like much, but when you have a 36% hold it’s actually 20% bigger than a 30% hold!
BW headed for a final gross around 14x previews. Looks like TSS could be on the same track (finishing below SS’s OD).
Being a superhero or R rated action movie with a 0 day window is some bad times for legs — really think WB should reconsider with Matrix.
TSS is a free streaming movie with Thursday previews, in summer. And the reception isn’t as strong as it seemed like to might be pre-release. A true plummet would not be too shocking given these factors.
Taking the 2.6 Mon 2.8 Tues from Forbes this would imply like… 1.9 Wed 1.6 Th or something? Matches with empirecity’s comments on how the weekend is looking 👀
