None. Its Hollywood blackout period.

So every sequel director in phase 3 also directed previous film. Phase 4 2 down already.

Do Little seems okayish. What say?

So will end below A:IW

Is DC3 number fake? Once @Olive said local pre-sales are fake/boosted. I am saying because Day 2 PS are shit.

Watched trailer of Bad Boys for Life. It's so unfunny.

Yeah at some point its bound to happen with inflation but point is at some point number of screens adding up isn't really pushing gross as much. In India biggest weekend for a Bollywood film in 2002 was 4mn admits on 500 screens or 6k shows. Today it's 9mn approx on 4500 screens or 70k shows. Shows increased to 11.5 times but admits are just about 2.25 times. A more recent comp would be with 2013 record was with the film having 10mn admits on 3300 screens 50k shows. So weekend admits are in fact stagnant in span of 40% extra shows.

More shows and more screens doesn't mean more admits especially because most shows will be added pre noon and evening times for big films as they already have bulk of prime shows. Also occupancies are around 30-50% with 200k plus shows, so its not like they are overflowing. Add 15% more screens and 15% shows, they might not even add 5% more audiences. Fate of the furious did 13mn admits on Saturday with 179k shows, doesn't mean it can do 22mn on 300k shows which 15% more screens & 15% more screens on Endgame will mean. IMO A2 will be lucky to hit 13mn on 300k shows, if it get those.

It doesn't matter now if it end in 950-1000.

I think we can't rule out under $125mn as well. There will be another big drop in next two weeks going by historical trend of November releases. I was expecting this and thus had expectations of $120-125mn. Though the New Year week was bigger than I expected but that's cancelled out with smaller Xmas week & follow up drop.

These sequels had difference of around 10 or more years especially in case of Dory. Cinegoing is on decline across world, but most country get over it statistically due to inflation which isn't case in Japan so sequels over long period of time are supposed to drop. TS4 had an impressive hold though in local currency & admits.

Tanhaji shall hit 250cr Nett. Maharashtra state, i.e. roughly 80% of Mumbai circuit, 50% of Nizam, 70% of CP Berar should be around 130cr of that or 150cr plus GROSS. That will be highest ever for a Bollywood film beating Dangal 137cr. Baahubali 2 still stands tall though at 235cr.

That would need ~55mn plus admits as well or avg of 8mn a day. EG averaged 8.2 for 5 days & extra 6 hours. Don't think Avatar can get that front-loaded ness from fans.

Under 5,000 in India. Over 1,300 million people.

Was just wondering, why is N word offensive. I mean from what I collect that just mean "person of color". Don't think brown people consider Desi as offensive

Nope. White movies are as alien to locals in East as Black ones. CBMs don't just run as they have white leads. Most comedies/musicals do shit numbers in Asia as they have no relevance at all. Action sell well. There do exist racism as well but so do vice versa. It just happens that big OS markets are in Europe.

Endgame 5 days + Midnights 42.8mn admits & ¥2.24Bn gross. Taking best 3 days will be 33mn admits & ¥1.7Bn admits. Monster Hunt 2 3 days were 30.5mn admits but ¥1.2B gross only. $350mn will need ¥2.45Bn or 60mn admits. Impossible I must say as with 220k plus shows daily Wandering Earth & Crazy Alien had just 38mn admits over holiday FSS.

Aquaman 3.1x. Ready Player One 3.56x.

EG had ¥50 ATP. Not gonna happen. Besides ER has dumped by 12%.

There's nothing sad about it IMO. People watch films/media which they relate close to them. America has a significant black population. Countries with significant black population will see black lead films do well and so on for other races. Problem is Africa is too small financially a market.

BB2 17.25 Rest par estimates.

India $900k. 😓

Nope. Neither is he obliged nor Ajay is directly associated with WB distributor.

Its very lopsided as well. ATBB in Maharashtra, barely HIT in North & Flop in West Bengal.

I forget to add amongst English speaking audience. Overall local soaps are unbeatable. Besides I don't think The Office India is that successful.
