RO and TLJ are better matches to the calendar 🤞

32

I think that’s the point. If Matrix was well-received we wouldn’t have this “nobody asked for” talking point

If NWH doesn’t reach 700 the legs will be extremely disappointing, verging on pathetic.

What use is the comparison to other movies this year supposed to have when there weren’t any other big movies this year?

🙄

Honestly I think a scream delay could be prudent, February is pretty wide open anyway. Morbius can stay, no one will care about omicron by then.

Yeah but The Dream™️ is DOM *and* WW. The Little Mermaid

Croods is the most impressive performance of 2021 DOM anyway

2022 has no chance to fulfill the simultaneous DOM and top 3 dream. Maybe 2023? Pretty hard to imagine Quantumania topping Fast10 and TLM. Maybe if they swap BP2 and Quantumania, LOL

Need to have Sing beat BW, then both Eternals and f9 shall be absolved of sin.

BO was pretty restored in June/July, perhaps more than in any month since. Post-vaccine and pre-delta was a time of good vibes. The big problem for BW, of course, was the PA.

My heart’s just not in it right now, but if Mon is below 25 I’ll give you a good and proper foreal foreal meltdown @CoolioD1

It’s a historically awful Sat, no explanation but that no one wants this movie, it is doomed, trash legs, audience hates it, covid killed cinema forever and nothing will release theatrically in 2022 or beyond

The upcoming weekdays as compared to last weekdays — though wed is culture day I suppose and then fri will have NYE effect, so really talking mon tues Th.

Should have had Watts direct Eternals

Updating with new information is not “wavering” or “biased.” Not updating with new information is just silly.

CGV final -32% last week, a good hold. I am going to guess weekdays will be down ~40% but hoping for better.

From my point of view, the subtraction is evil.

Yeah, that’s why it’s better not to talk in absolutes 😛

Well, they’re a drag on the total and the legs but it shouldn’t really be skewing daily % trends much except on days where there is a notable ratcheting of restrictions. Like if Sat is 31 instead of 34, but Fri was 20 instead of 22, it’s pretty much a wash as far as judging the Sat bump. Canada iirc actually has slightly better weekdays, so — much better Mon hold bit weaker Fri bump bit weaker Sat bump bit better Sun hold which means, in general, deducting Canada should help the Sat increase very minority. In this particular case with Xmas and capacity limits on a large raw gross movie, the details get really messy and I’m happy to just recommend people look at the more zoomed out trending rather than obsessing about daily %s.

Hmm, pretty interesting observation actually. Now I kind of want to run 26th/25th as a function of 25th raw size.

Nothing public facing afaik but some insiders are aware and it’s not impossible that some info (or even the final results of calcs based on the info) could trickle out in some capacity.

Normally this is where I’d run my “who cares” bit — but as a matter of fact, Pizza and Underdog are the two movies I’m most interested in this week aside from NWH and I would also love some nums on them.
