MiniTC2 MCU starts
Eternals - 1022
NWH - 29680
DSitMoM - 12133
Thor 4 - 6218
Wakanda - 4624
Ant Man - 4359 (30+ hours)
GoTG 3 - 2947
Spider Verse - 1580
Every Marvel title has dropped since NWH. Expect it to continue with Marvels. We are probably back to Eternals level, may be lower.
Expecting $12M by THU night based on current pace. Probably $13M final. That should give around $30M perhaps. Need to see MTC 2 nos. to be sure.
SAT probably be $11.75M by FRI night. $13M final as well.
Been a while since I posted.
Five Nights at Freddy MiniTC2 T-21
Previews - 2295/33930 (131 showings)
Friday - 764/33759 (131 showings)
This is as of last night. Will post the tonight data in few hours. Absolutely incredible THU. FRI is less unlike MTC1 but is still a lot better than Halloween and Scream.
Comps
Previews
6.09x of Halloween 3 first 3 days of sales
~3.50x of Scream VI first 3 days of sales
3.12x of John Wick 4 first 3 days of sales
Friday
1.72x of Halloween 3 first 3 days of sales
0.97x of John Wick 4 first 3 days of sales
Was thinking about something like John Wick perhaps. What's better is that sales seem well spread. Much better than Wick in MiniTC2.
You did raise a valid point of less shows for THU, which is probably why FRI is so BIG in MTC 1. May be if there were more shows, THU there be even better.
Release is never an issue in US. You have ton of screens to fulfil any demand. The question is if pace can sustain for 10M demand.
Which for now looks doable.
I think that $65M is overall sales and not weekend which Deadline mentioned. From this, seems like $55M ish weekend sales so far. I won't be surprised with the sub $100M weekend.
Edit: Seems like you have put FRI numbers in SAT, assuming SUN nos is actually SAT, would guess $22M ish MTC 1 sales and $45M overall weekend.
