    I just hate disrespectful audiences who don't understand the social contract they must engage in when going to the cinema. If it was me I would've said them to shut the fuck up but yea it's good you got out of there. I don't expect everyone to be silent the whole film. If an audience laughs at a joke or claps at a climactic scene, that makes the cinema experience more lively. But blatant disregard for the experience of othe audience members, is something that shouldn't be tolerated.

    I don't live in the safest area, and you never really know how people are going to react to any of this nowadays, so since I have Unlimited I just figured I'd cut my losses and watch the big game instead lol

    Hopefully you got a refund at least.

    Yeah, I would've definitely asked for a refund if I didn't have Regal Unlimited. By the time I got out of there, all I had wasted was 30 minutes of my time, so can't complain too much. Now if my matinee is similarly rowdy tomorrow I'll be put off for good lol

    I walked out of Missing 30 minutes in - nothing to do with the quality of the film, but because everyone has seemingly lost their ability to be a respectful audience member.

     

    In a small auditorium in my local theater, multiple crying babies (why do people still bring their infants into loud intense movies), 3 different big groups walked into the theater 20 minutes late, acting like they had no idea where they're supposed to sit in a theater with assigned seating, people directly next to me on their phones taking snaps with audio on AND that iPhone flash for every single notification they got, a huge group of teens walked in literally screaming to scare the audience 30 mins in, so I just left. Ridiculous.

     

    At least the Eagles are putting on a clinic right now. Maybe I'll catch a matinee tomorrow morning.

    I’m going to work up a more formal projection tomorrow, but looking at the last couple of years that does seem to be the case (though I’m not sure why?), and that ~$21M number is probably too low, more like $24M as starting point 

    A 26% week-to-week drop as your starting point would add another terrific weekend to this movie's run, though of course we do have the historical trend of this weekend holding even better than last holiday weekend over the past few years iirc. Pretty cool, hope it pans out!

    I really like three of these numbers. Saw Plane today and, while pretty generic, it was surprisingly enjoyable and competently made. Butler was quite good and the first act is great. Third act is a lot of fun. Wish it was doing better.

    Still Friday was weakish last weekend compared to Saturday, and you would think Sunday should hold better than last weekend due to the holiday Monday.

    40mil 4 day is very much in play imo.

    We can't underestimate the impact of the playoffs this weekend imo

    You guys need to understand that people still want to see this movie. They just do it on the weekends because it's a 5+hour commitment of a day. If the 3day truly is below 30mil then it'll probably land below 700, but if it's 35mil+ then 700-750mil seems a lot more likely. This weekend is key. I'm personally thinking a 40mil weekend isn't too far out of reach. 

    $40m just seems extremely optimistic with this likely thurs-sun IM.

    Where Puss in Boots TLW did not win Best animated feature even though it should've 😠. Dont get me wrong, GT Pinnochio was good, great even. But I think PiB was marginally better.

    Loved PiB but it didn't have me an emotional mess afterward like Marcel and GDT's Pinocchio. All three are in my top 10 of the year. What a great year for animation and horror.

    Idk about Oscar's. GT Pinnochio may beat it there regrettably since that's more Oscar baity despite PiB being marginally better imo.

    It's locked for a nomination, at least. 

     

    I'd go GDT's Pinocchio > Marcel the Shell > Puss in Boots, but I loved all three and they might all finish in my top 10 of 2022.
