If Rise of Skywalker finishes even as low 500m then that'd be better retention than Jumanji 3 finishing with 280 but yeah, different expectations and yadda yadda
I'm good with anything over 180m. I was expecting a Justice League situation after reviews came out but I think people would still want to see this at least once to finish the story. Curious to see how it performs for Xmas.
Next year's slate is very weak compared to this but even though they may get 'only' 1-2 billion dollar pictures next year everything else besides Artemis Fowl will likely do well. It'll be nice to see some distrubition of wealth.... unless every other studio flounders.
Honestly very surprised with Jumanji's numbers. I was expecting a 37ish opening as I thought this would decrease like Secret Life of Pets 2 but do fine for the holidays but I guess people liked the first Jumanji while the first Pets movie was eh at best. I'm gonna guess it'll total out at 240m+ domestic.
That Uncut Gems PTA is impressive. If it manages to get 100k PTA for the weekend that'd be a very nice headline. Bombshell is also looking at a healthy PTA too.
