  2. Well...my $5 will be going to it (Dark Phoenix) on Tuesday. I didn't have that faith in its quality to begin with all along because of the filmography of the writer/director. But one last time to close out the era as far as I'm concerned.

     

    Dark Phoenix audience demos: "Those who showed were 58% male/42% female and 71% under 35 with 56% falling between 18 – 34 years old. The mix was 41% Caucasian, 25% Hispanic, 17% African American, & 17% Asian/Other." (Deadline) (comparisons w/ 2 week exit data)

  4. Godzilla KotM 67% male audience opening weekend

    Godzilla KotM 76% male audience opening weekend

    Kong Skull Island 56% male audience opening weekend

    Godzilla 2014 58% male audience opening weekend

     

    To illustrate this demo decline with the two differing gender splits given above:

     

    Godzilla KotM (2019)
    $47,776,293 first weekend (-48.7% from Godzilla 2014)
    $32,010,116 men (67%) (-40.8% from Godzilla 2014)
    $15,766,177 women (33%) (-59.7% from Godzilla 2014)

     

    With the same gender split as 2014's (without losing any men), the opening would have been in the mid 50s.

     

    Godzilla KotM (2019)
    $47,776,293 first weekend (-48.7% from Godzilla 2014)
    $36,309,983 men (76%) (-32.8% from Godzilla 2014)
    $11,466,310 women (24%) (-70.7% from Godzilla 2014)

     

    With the same gender split as 2014's (without losing any men), the opening would have been in the low 60s.

     

    Godzilla (2014)
    $93,188,384 first weekend
    $54,049,263 men (58%)
    $39,139,121 women (42%)

    Aladdin beats Us to take #3 on yearly dom chart and make it a Disney trifecta...

    1 Avengers: Endgame BV $815,501,784 4,662 $357,115,007 4,662 4/26 -
    2 Captain Marvel BV $426,181,433 4,310 $153,433,423 4,310 3/8 -
    3 Aladdin (2019) BV $185,032,174 4,476 $91,500,929 4,476 5/24 -

     

    TS4 and TLK should make it top 5 for Disney by summer end. 

    Spiderman (Sony) will beat Aladdin and in the high-end challenge CM, TS4 imo.

    SLOP2 and HobbsShaw should make it past Us but behind all Disney films and Spiderman.

     

    Fall:

    IT2 can challenge lower-rung Disney which could be Aladdin at 300+.

    Don't know what to think about Joker.

     

    Holidays:

    SW and Frozen still to come and will again be near the top of the charts. Wow.

    Jumanji3 a wild card and could beat a few Disney films.

    Not a great year at the top for anyone not named Disney. They catch a breather next year at least in theory.

     

    Too early to draw a big conclusion from this with almost 7 months of releases to go but I wonder what the middle number will be for this year.

    Deadline: "Caucasians were less than 50% of the crowd with very good turnout by Hispanic (24%) and Asian moviegoers (13%). West coast business is bound to be very good. Male heavy as expected at 70%, with leading demos being men over 25 (41%), men under 25 (29%), females over 25 (18%) and females under 25 (12%)."

  9. Follow-up to the billion-dollar worldwide movies post:

    Still some slots open between A:E and CM. Should in theory be at minimum two more >CM if it follows 2017-2018. One more >CM if it follows 2014, 2015, and 2016. Or more top-heavy than the past 5 years if more than two >CM.

     

    This is where The Lion King and/or The Rise of Skywalker and/or Frozen 2 can potentially come in, if not also Toy Story 4 as far as Disney movies go.

    I hope some other studios make it into the Top 10 this year like Pets 2 and It Chapter 2 since other studios ceded the year by moving Wonder Woman 2 and Bond out which would have or could have charted. Aladdin's performance may mean 2 (w/ The Lion King) movies outside of Disney's big four studios made it into the Top 10 when the year's over, with Frozen 2, Toy Story 4, and The Rise of Skywalker also contenders for a total of ~7.

  11. This is a tad premature for 2019; got like 4 months before this is essentially finalized for the first half of 2019 when the new May-June releases runs are done. Aladdin will get in there but it's not been such a great time outside of super top-end.

    I guess that patterns this year most closely to 2015 so far, and with Endgame taking the place of The Force Awakens as the leading movie for its year. With popular movies yet to come in the back half of the year, I don't expect the slope to be quite as drastic as 2015. More money is potentially freed up for the back half of the year if Endgame and Captain Marvel alone didn't lay claim to it already with their huge hauls.

    (*Avengers: Endgame currently excluded from averages)

     

    In other words I guess, don't expect performance miracles from a sub-series third sequel released a year later from the previous one in the most frontloaded release month of the year especially when it opens a $100M over its predecessor which likely means some of that post-OW demand from a year ago shifted to the OW this time around.
