So finally the pace slows down, more like 10.75mn at end of the day.

$75-80mn Full Run.

As per morning estimates only. See page 5.

Ugly opening for Greta.

Pre-sales starts in India Tommorow. Buzz is strong.

Basically Dangal. Trade feels that the film worked because of women empowerment as a theme. Some even pointed out that lifting of One-Child policy worked in film's favour. I disagree with all that tho.

The Indian trade feels that films with female protagonists have better reception in China. May that turn out to be true and Captain Marvel breakout.

Marvel Cinematic Universe and its increasing Previews to the Friday. After every Avengers film, there is growth in the previews component in Friday. The new normal now is around 32-33% IMO for solo films and End Game will most likely be around 38-39%. Said that, I am expecting 31% for Captain Marvel on account of Women's day, if Previews are $19-20mn, we shall have a Friday of $61-65mn Approx.

Are these figures from some region with higher percentage of Black population? Because for Black Panther was on another level there.

Here's a thing. 2018 had holdovers from Xmas doing great and Black Panther ffs. What do we had this year? Almost nothing. Obviously it was going down. I don't understand the cry here. Obviously March will be better and so will be April and summer looks much better than last year. And of course by the end of year we have Frozen 2 and Star Wars.

Shall do ¥3.5-4mn again today as by the end of day pace shall rise, I guess.

Can anyone here give list of top MCU final pre-sales and opening days.

Yes.

Not calculated. That's what those films did domestically minus Canada and Puerto Rico.

And The Wandering Earth beat Avatar to become 3rd highest grossing film in a single country. The toppers being 1. Wolf Warrior 2 (China) 2. The Force Awakens (USA) 3. The Wandering Earth (China) 4. Avatar (US) 5. Black Panther (US)

HTTYD 3: $8.2mn Alita: $5.69mn Green Book: $3.74mn Wandering Earth: $3.21mn

Lets wait for weekend. If I have to say a number, $80mn. BR, idk how will it do as it will be censored. May be DP2 numbers.

Bajrangi Bhaijaan had delayed release as well and quite limited at just 20k shows. Aamir Khan of course helped.

It did $45mn after $2.1mn opening day (holiday, real value around $1.2mn). That's about 38x opening day to lifetime multiple.

So there was a 9.6 Bajrangi Bhaijaan a week before Black Panther and Green Book a week before Captain Marvel.

Thanks for stating the obvious. @Brainbug

$130-135mn mostly.
