[The Box Office Buzz, Tracking, and Pre-Sale Thread]

So with @charlie Jatinder's $100m+ OS prediction plus domestic GxK looking in the mid 60's...with a little luck internationally this could be getting close to Dune 2's $182.5m total opening, that's really incredible considering EARLY estimates

So Deadline reported $135m “NET” production cost…could there have been that significant of tax incentives to film GxK primarily in Australia? In the ballpark of $50m +\-? 

 

Also on a separate topic…they really appear to be pulling out all of the stops with their international marketing campaign for this movie, just going all out

There's no centralized resource unfortunately. It gets hard as each tracker has some unique elements in their presentation. But, you're interpreting correctly in your assumptions above.

 

I think I speak for most trackers is that people don't mind if there's questions. We post here so other people can see the data. We want it to be as clear as possible.

 

Most tracking is done for the previews day. That's usually the most relevant, because then estimating weekend multipliers can help give a full weekend estimate. But sometimes people track Friday or other days (generally to help predict the multipliers) . Those will be labeled as such.

Thank you everyone, much appreciated, very helpful context

New poster here...I'm "conversant" in speaking box office but not "fluent"...is there a resource or a pinned post explaining how to understand this pre sales data? I understand these numbers are comparing GxK pre-sales numbers vs these other pre-sales, and the T-8 means 8 days until domestic release? The Size adjusted comps = 6.86m means...estimated Thursday previews? Total pre-sales dollar amount? Forgive my newbie-ness

Has anyone seen rumors for GxK breakeven numbers? I've seen a few estimates around $470m WW, does that seem about right?
