Soo this thread and forum is pretty quiet today

Nothing for the proxy haters and pseudo-professionals to chew on unfortunately. Avatar 2 has provided them no viable talking points lately. No more 100 pages for weeks.
Alas, you just have to wait for the weekday thread, they’ll be there promising the end has come

Avatar #1 for 7th weekend.

What happened? I kept reading that Pathaan was the 1st Indian movie to top UK box office - both here, twitter etc.

There’s been so many can’ts, won’ts, impossibles with this movie on BOT (& everywhere) that’s it’s like a sweet song of irony every time you see one repeated. JC man.

All in it is a very great week for Avatar 2 where it passes $2bn, IW and SW7 in the same week while getting into Oscar best picture race.

 

It is now mega box office juggernaut with great leg plus one of the Oscar season winner. It check off basically every success box and the humiliation to the hater is now complete.

So relieved but shocked this is heading for #2 all time in Australia.

 

Like the UK, it looked like it had been rejected by audiences for whatever reason until the 3rd or 4th weekend. Still wondering the why and what caused the shift. WOM perhaps?! It’s incredible!

So what’s the reason for the Thursday increases this week? No popcorn day this week…

Because in 2005 some movies increased in the same week. Last week an outlier blah blah 

[Weekdays Thread (23rd to 26th of January 2023)]

Avatar will be showing in even less theaters than NWH at the same point last year. 

PLF count have also reduced  vs last week. For example, down to 1 IMAX showing a day in Times-square from 4 last week. Paathan getting  3 IMAX showings.

I’m more of a Bhai Stan (90s SK) but glad for SRK. Devdas is one of my faves of all time (more so for MD though).

 

No one here will get any of this lol
