    why is that a surprise. Minions is a sequel to 100m+ opener while Lightyear is movie within another movie. 

     

    Anyway Minions breakout is confirmed. Tuesday is the strongest I have seen for any openers. 

     

    Minions MTC1 Friday -  76708/1264045 1166869.54 6905 shows + 32603

     

    This is about 28 hours as well but still its crazy strong for a tuesday of a release. I think at this point even 100m OW cannot be ruled out. Let us see how wednesday goes.

    Plus it did not have TMobile discounts inflated that I know of.

    TGM still has the best 5th Tuesday excluding holidays but almost no bump for it?? I guess the biggest question it's Wednesday drop.

    Going by history, they usually have the best Wednesday drops and it was coming off of a smaller than normal Monday drop. @EmpireCity, thank you for all of your hard work.

    Thor MTC2 previews - 108186/524756 1533651.20 3276 shows // As of morning

     

    ~3800 tickets ~24 hours. I think its playing like low 20s at MTC2 but MTC1 is more optimistic. But its really weird that MTC2 is < half MTC1 in gross at this point(By my calc MTC is at 3.75m). Thinking 25-27m previews at this point. Plus friday PS is well below DS2 as well and so I am expecting closer to 5 than 6x multi at this point. 

     

    That said let us see where things are in a week's time. Reviews could lead to big boost if it can have Ragnarok level reviews. 

    Thanks for Thor! There's still hope for it. Anything on Minions?

    Elvis' opening is pretty good. The rest of the summer is largely absent of competition for older audiences (I guess with the exception of Where the Crawdads Sing?) so it might be on track for a nice run with $100M+ total being a strong possibility.

    Even with 45-day unnecessary (should be extended to like 90 days) window from HBO, $100m is in the cards thanks to summer weekdays. As for Crawdads, I haven't seen much marketing for it and the starpower isn't there like The Fault in Our Stars and The Girl on the Train. It's this year's Paper Towns especially if it gets an R-rating.

    If you told me after TFA was released that TOP GUN 2 was going to outgross EPISODE IX I'd have called you nuts!

    Same here. TG2 could have gone the Independence Day 2 (Will Smith being absent + atricious reviews),  The Matrix Resurrections (HBO Max Same-day, releasing idiotically right after NWH), Blade Runner 2049 (stricter rating and almost 3-hour runtime) route in terms of box office. Instead, its fantastic reviews, marketing, WOM helped its epic run.

    think elvis will hold off top gun today.

     

    we're finding elvis strange at my cinema. it is busy but not with the people we though it would be. I thought it'd do really well with older audiences, but so far that's not the case

    Will TGM have another great hold despite new competition in UK? I don't know how UK BO works like USA BO does.

    Elvis is looking pretty quiet today. I'd guess flat at best on yesterday. JWD will be #1 today i think

    How is JWD #1 today since it was behind £100k TGM? Does it have the families on weekends and how is TGM looking today?
