They were always hilarious tbf

Well labor expansion boost quite typical for huge May/June movies right. Just looking at my pic you’d think TA end around 618

I would be curious if any other trivia hunters out there can find another example of this — 5 movies 5 in a row on DOM total, where each of the first 5 weekends was won by a different one of the movies. I think it’s actually a very very very difficult criteria! I think sometimes @TalismanRing has been good at hunting stuff of this nature and some other people who I’m embarrassing forgetting atm 😅

Partially competition but partially just that Gotg1’s late legs were kah-razy and DPW has been dropping against it recently. For instance DPW’s weekly (last days) gross was at 121% of gotg1’s (calendar adjusted) at the end of DPW’s 3rd week. Dropped to 114% 4th week, 106% 5th week, and will be ~95% by Mon using my ests. Probably about 70-85% for post Mon — will decline from 95% to under 50% probably by the time Joker 2 hits, but the earlier period is where more of the money is made so it’s weighted higher

A funny thing about comparing these 5 movies (which will be 5 in a row in DOM finish) is that each weekend has a different winner: OW DPW 211M 2nd wknd JW 106M 3rd IO2 57M 4th TA 36M 5th Barbie 21M 6th likely wrap back to DPW ~16M

Place you dreams in the sat bump and next wknd hold I guess 😛

Yeah thinking it will trail JW ~7M through Mon and end up around 7M behind in the end

I am thinking low-mid 640s as most likely case, but it's worth noting there are a lot of other things to give up some screens for Beetlejuice and dpw really doesn't need that many. If you look at the history of weekend where something opens to ~125M in 2024 dollars, the previous wknd #1 isn't necessarily too impacted. It'll be a big % drop just since it's coming off the inflated labor wknd, but not necessarily going to get bodied.

Something like 3.8 6.3 6.6 5.3 could be quite reasonable

Bingo

I have it at 606.x, but it's true that if it gets to 608 then following gotg would be 660 (wouldn't follow gotg though). Fwiw @keysersoze123 DPW's fri/th increases have been higher than gotg1's for last weekend, and the weekend before that (and the weekend before that). That's due to the 1 week offset in the runs in part -- I do expect the Fri jump to be weaker this weekend, but probably not by much

R rating doesn’t particularly hurt legs 200+ OW doesn’t particularly help legs Thank you for coming to my Ted talk

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 😛
