I will never understand the people who’ve been around for over a month and still quote Geo.

This locks up at least 66 consecutive days over 500k for Aladdin, maybe can manage 68 or 73 but I doubt it. Best of 2010s as far as I can tell (let me know if you see a 50+ that I missed): The King’s Speech 72 Frozen 68 Jumanji 68 BP 66 TA 62 I2 61 TFA 61 IW 59 CM 59 WW 59 TS3 59 TJB 59 Greatest Showman 57 Hidden Figures 54 JW 54 Silver Linings Playbook 53 Endgame 52 gotg 52 IO 52 Zootopia 52 Lincoln 52 Maleficent 52 SLoP 52

9th weekend ranked 65th, to be flat next weekend would need 3.02M, looks fairly possible.

Still gotta pass Skyfall and get the year to 5B. Looks like it’ll probably fall just short of CM now and be the 2nd lowest grossing of the last 6 MCU movies, how tragic 😛

This is why I said Gotg2 numbers for FFH yesterday. Would need a really nice weekend hold to put 400 back on the table.

Today 90, decisively pulls ahead of Jumanji and King’s Speech for 2nd place of the decade. If Thursday can make it will get to 94, just one short of Silver Linings Playbook. All it need to win then is Monday to be flat with last Mon 😛

25% a year for 10 years is +830%, not +250%. So (if that 25% annual is correct) more like 200/9.3=21.5M

End of week should be about 2.2M away, after adding 800k (mild increase from last week). Looks very possible, but it’s hard to predict exactly when an anti-gravity run will return to somewhat reasonable behavior.

Friday PS TLK 27k Aladdin 18k Thinking about 170 and 100, but not that much historical data on Thurs:Fri change in PSm, so take that with an unusually large grain of salt.

I, too, would be interested in a PM

16:20 TLK 51k Aladdin 29k As expected. Maybe low 130s and just under 70. @UserHN, let’s wait for the 2nd weekend. Looks like roughly 5M/$38M to me, but not really my area of expertise.

Well there you have it, would have been a $200M movie in Argentina. Definitely nothing strange going on there, let’s move on immediately after noting this comforting fact.

Thanks for the heads up, tagged it. Also few things in life are funnier than Endgame still being in “spoiler mode” around here 🤣

Not sure if same day sales will rebound, so conservatively let’s say 125+. Aladdin PS 15k, continuing the trend of being 1k higher each weekday. So far same-day sales have dropped more than that, but I’m pretty sure that won’t be the case today, thinking about 70k.

More O/U Gotg2 than O/U 400 I think, TLK did just enough damage. Gotg2 was a fine bump from Gotg1 and so too shall be FFH, but I really hope SM3 can bump to something really big, like 450+.

I was a bit too optimistic again. In my defense this is the first OD of a new movie I’m working with, looks like same-day sales are a lot more affected than presales (which is intuitive). TLK now at 49k, should end about 65-68 CGV and 135-140 admits. Aladdin now 26k, should end roughly 33k, for ~65k (-12% daily, +15% weekly). King’s letters now 49k, should just barely win the day with ~69k CGV, we’ll see what it’s ratio is like but probably 140+.

Well yeah, obviously having more people and more theaters is a big part of Endgame being bigger. Nobody is denying that, but it’s also kind of beside the point...

Yeah, that’s what I thought you meant. Pretty funny #1 for the decade.

Right!? Even Avatar was “just” 101 😮

Yeah, both trailers were really good, but this TV spot was just god tier. The only piece of marketing they really needed, and I just noticed that it ticked up to 1.1M likes, which is surreal for non-trailer movie promotional YT vids.

2.8’s just not very milestone-y. My big question is what IMAX will do for end of August. They decide what to do with IMAX screens, and TLK will probably have a very low IMAX PTA by then, so I’ve got to assume that IMAX will either rerelease Aladdin, Endgame, or do som skins of special event (last year they had a similar late August dead period and did an MCU marathon including all 20 movies.

There’s not much reason to care about 2.8 after already getting #1 imo, but I think it will get there without a push.

Let’s try to keep things below 624M 😛
