I didn’t say anything about Kang Dynasty. Only 4 avengers movies exist, their strength is what it is. If there is some new weaker state of affairs someday we will adjust what it means to be on avengers level, but you can’t downgrade based on movies that don’t exist

That’s pretty close to the average labor wknd drop for MCU but almost every other movie was waaaaaay smaller by then and some even received a degree of expansion. I don’t think +5% would be like, completely shocking, but neither would -22 or something. Weekdays may help provide some clue— looking for about 1.8 Mon, but so far a common patterns has been to meet Monday targets but then miss on Wed/Th

63.8 geomean, 57.4 to be within 10% of geomean. BP1 and NWH the only MCU nonavengers to be in that tier dom, just nwh WW. Deadpool in the next tier down, which is insanely impressive still, just no need to get carried away like main comment I responded too 😛

Looking ahead to next wknd the bar for a top 10 6th wknd is J:WttJ’s 16,144,874, or ~a 11.8% drop. Doable but far from assured

Sure, domestically it almost got within 20% of IW admits and beating AoU by ~5%. A great performance… still not really close to avengers level (those are the two worst avengers performances)

FWIW I think this summer has cemented that movies are having better legs now than they were pre-pandemic, so I don’t know if it was all that close. Summer helps too. That said yeah general reception was great (despite the movie being pretty bad in my personal opinion) and their is definitely a many pages long stretch of this thread that looks super funny now

After this does outside the top 15 WW when every single Avengers movie made top 5? This movie is doing great and I’m happy for it, but it is decidedly not, as the kids say, an Avengers level threat

Essentially all still on track for last week's nums

CBM weeks at #1: NWH 6 DPW 5 (nearly assured with next wknd) BP 5 BP2 5 SC 4 gotg 4 TDK 4

Maybe like 20% for JW and 30% for 650 imo

Kind of a weak hold for DPW, though fingers crossed sun will randomly overperform again. Now looking for maybe 605-610 the through Labor Day, likely 640s finish

Definitely a bit weak past 3 days. Seems to be narrowing in on 640-655ish

Put me down for incredibles 3 or frozen 4

Yeah this is a late august wknd thread alright

No, 52M post labor would be pretty unlikely. Not totally impossible but it would need to hold extremely well throughout September, particularly on Beetlejuice wknd

Probably make ~5-10% more from now through labor and ~10-25% less post labor, relative to gotg1

Sure, should do a little under 6M on wed+th for weekdays of ~12.5 cume ~559 wknd ~20 (-33%) for week of ~32.5 cume ~579 weekdays of ~8M (-35%) // 587 Labor 4day of ~23.5M, Tues-th ~3 for a wk ~27 cume ~614.5 poat labor wknd of ~ 9M and weekdays ~3M for 12M week // 626 cume from there ~30% avg drops adds ~29M

Never

Quite possibly Almost certainly given expansion

OW: 6th biggest 2nd wknd: 8th 3rd: 12th 4th: 11th biggest (removing Sniper and Revenant nonsense) 5th weekend real 11th place would be 20M, has some chance to rise back up to 9th (requires beating Barbie’s 21.03M). 6th weekend could very well rise back up to 6th biggest (and biggest for MCU for the 1st time) requiring 17.1 to beat BP 7th weekend the party will be over as it drops out of top 20 (albeit with a chance to land around IO2/TDK/TA/CM zone for top 25)

I mean it will hit that by next wknd. O/U 1.05B OS

Coraline and Borderlands jointly will be giving up ~45k screens, Aliens can part with another 40k+ in all likelihood, newbies won’t demand much so clear room for the well performing holdovers to have very robust screen (and gross) drops BTW just to be clear “change” is Show count vw last wknd

One wknd before labor hood be interesting timing for expansion relative to history, question would be whether they try to expand again, hold steady, or accept some losses the wknd after. Makes sense that it should claw some back during the dead zone though tbh, very robust PSA compared to a lot of what else is out

Haven’t thought about it much yet, don’t usually care much about 4th weekdays or whatever. Low 3s I guess
