Menor the Destroyer

Quoting for the people who still are misinterpreting.

It reminded me a lot of the Seven Samurai TCW episode (but not quite as good, as that one had Hondo). But I didn't mind the lack of overall plot development as I feel like this episode did a lot for the Mando as a character.

180*3.3 is still where I'm at. It's opening at a bad weekend for OW but a great weekend for legs.

Doing good! I don't think I have seen you on the site before either but I only joined this year.

Needs just 2.25x this weekend to get there. I'd say the floor is catching fire legs which would get about 440 million, if it holds like Moana then the ceiling is closer to 540 million. I'm expecting about 500 million final or adding 2.5x this weekend.

Ralph 2 did -37%. So close to 40 but could be less.

Yeah 155 was always a big reach. But with a strong bump today (which I expect given that the drop from Wed was big), 135 should be doable and could get close to 140.

1. Eternals 2. Black Widow 3. Star Wars TROS 4. Soul 5. Onward 6. WW84 7. Tenet 8. Call of the Wild 9. Raya 10. Godzilla v Kong

15 is a lot nicer than 14 :). Also I find both IW and Endgame easily better than DH films.

Of course it is, it's the best film of all time...Citizen Kane Schmitizen Kane. On a more serious note, I enjoy it but find it nowhere near the rest of the Avengers films.

Biggest flop is that last Avengers film, it was so forgettable I don't even remember the name. Didn't even get 1 billion domestic. What a fucking terrible run.

2nd place is the first loser

WOM was not that great and the MCU was a pretty frontloaded/fan-heavy franchise at that point. Civil War which got a lot better reviews and was much better liked by fans still couldn't get good drops. I'm not saying that the fight caused it to miss the OW record or anything like that, but it definitely had an effect on the weekend. I mean IW which had much higher levels of fan rush still managed a 219 FSS off of a 67 million Friday. Ultron's FSS at that ratio would have been 186 million leading to a 214 million weekend! Obviously the ratios wouldn't be perfect (Ultron's Fri-Sun trend was worse than IW), but still the weekend was way lower than you'd think from the Friday and it didn't have BvS-like bad WOM as an excuse.

That's already factored into his number. It needs walkups for 7.

I don't think Trolls is a good comp here. Numbers were not in the same ballpark.

What are you thinking for Friday bump? 150% from 14 still gets it to only 35. 35-35-21 is like 91.

8 is happening, 7 is doable though not all that easy, with Thursday of just 13-14 not sure it can get to 6.

I doubt it.

Ralph 2 3.82. but that had pretty bad initial legs in general.

507 million Thanksgiving weekend confirmed.

25 16 38 38 23 140 seems doable if today's number is very strong. Edit: Damn, even Deadline is saying 23.5/135. I think it's very doable at this point.

And TS4 was massively overpredicted, we also saw Solo massively overpredicted a year ago. Given that first choice, awareness, and presales (after 2 years of growth in presales) are all lagging TLJ it doesn't seem like they are lowballing this time. Maybe this will be the first SW tracking to be spot on.

I'm skeptical of that. It had a lot of hype and would have had a gigantic OW especially if it had remained a May release. On the tracking, I do think they're being a lot less conservative than usual. DL's details about how TROS is performing relative to TLJ in presales and tracking metrics have me thinking in the 180 million range.

It will deflate OW but not PS. Because weekday PS would/should be higher than TLJ. Kinda like what we saw with Frozen 2 last weekend.

If overall PS is below TLJ then that's not a great sign considering it has Christmas in the very next week (so should have an advantage in PS), and also considering 2 years growth in presales.
