uh... that's exactly what it means.

Last XMAS weekend had boxing day on SUN, this year its on MON, that changes a lot. It will be a bit closer if you consider comparison for dates and not day. 23-26/12/2021 vs 23-26/12/2022

580k.

That admin probably only think/care about US box office, because there are markets where admission data is of first preference for movie tracking , try visiting Korea thread or France, LATAM and majority of European markets.

ah what now? except Anglosphere markets (UK, US, AUS and NZ), all markets admissions data is available.

I think admissions point to simple thing that "x" many people went to watch film. The higher gross implies that those who went to watch, watched it in PLFs and 3D.

If you put it that way, it makes sense. Jumanji was good

Yeah 27 and 28th are bigger days.

A typical baniya of India won't be happy getting ₹1000 in 2022 if he lend the same amount in 2016. He will like to have ₹2000 for that ₹1000 after 6 years.

Unless Quantumania has bad WOM, I think MCU fandom will deliver $100M weekend surely.

Unfortunately you "thinking" can't translate to admits just yet IF and that's a big IF, A2 does reach 750M, that will still be just 54M admits.

yep, and I believe it will.

It will likely follow RO till Jan 2nd and after that will start making gains, especially around mid-January when RO slowed down for Split and couple of other releases. Unless we see something special with late legs, US would likely end up around $600-650M for around 45M admits. That's an ordinary performance, nothing remarkable/special. XMAS releases admits recently 2015 - TFA 85M 2016 - RO 48M and Sing 32M 2017 - TLJ 56M and Jumanji 42M 2018 - Aquaman 31M and Spider Verse 20M 2019 - TRoS 46M and Jumanji 2 34M 2021 - NWH 70M 2022 - Avatar 2 43-46M

deadline is no fun. where's the currency ambiguity. where's permutations involving 14.5.

Monday early estimates $58M. $661M+ total. Tuesday will be around same. Europe will jump, LATAM a bit of drop.

may I present you with something https://cinetrak.co.in/flash.html?state=India&day=20221226 drop is higher in North at 60%. South held better especially Kerala which has large Christian population, only 24% drop being boxing day.

somehow never thought it will miss 80M with 16M OW. 5x+ legs were always likely with XMAS release. Was hoping for 20M+ OW and 110M+ final.

This weekend doesn't really matter. NWH on same "dates" was ~155M. NWH did 590M+ after 25th DEC, A2 should be 525M+ surely IMO, possibly 600M+.

Christmas weekdays are like partial holidays. Expected holds. There is a reason we were expecting ₹450-500cr despite it was so far behind EG and Dangal in dailies.

yeah those DIS numbers were too high.

(I haven't confirmed 2nd weekend number yet, taking what I am seeing in thread). Weekdays should probably be around 11M+ which will be more than even NWH. 80M+ should come. Lets see where it settle, possibly 90M+ final.

Yes stop around 1PM

FRI was 8593. SAT was 297. SUN 11237. Should hit 500K IMO, likely 550K.
