Exhibitors seem to be preparing for a similar result. According to the Showtimes Dashboard tracker (owned by Boxoffice PRO’s parent The Boxoffice Company), Frozen II is currently booked for 28 percent fewer showtimes than The Lion King between Thursday night and the end of Sunday (based on a sample of more than 3,300 theaters in each case). The sequel has a 30 percent lead in bookings versus Aladdin at the same point.
