Thinking of 3 weeks ago when Sing, KM, Redeeming Love, WSS, and GBA all gained theaters for no particular reason just because nothing came out.
Next weekend has cyrano in 750, but I still think some locations will shuffle screens around a bit to prioritize holdovers that will get better occupancy for them especially as contracts for some stuff expire.
Might be too optimistic on Batman wknd, but the thing is NWH will still have a lot of theaters and probably 2nd best wide PTA the wknd before. So I think it won’t be too gutted 🤞
I’ve got about 7.5 for 781M pre-Batman wk, for ~5M Batman wk. Then 30% is 798 but expecting an extended edition March re-expansion to throw in some 5-15.
The 2016 movie ranks adjusts to like 99M, a normal marvel solo sequel should see a bump to above 120M. But this is far from a normal solo sequel, the closest comparison to the value added elements are Civil War and NWH.
ON+Q is mucking things up some domestically, but it’s an extraordinarily good 9th wknd OS-C as well. Very high Nth weekend placement in markets all over. Lack of competition helps, so does exiting omicron, but reception also. It definitely means something.
Ahh, leggy is the key word that was missing before 😆
Then I agree. Several have had more impressive DOM legs, but the late run WW strength i can’t think of anything that matches NWH.
