Lordmandeep Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 (edited) While many thought it was underperforming, there were those of us who actually knew about Christmas trends, who still said it has a chance at 120-140 mill. It'll be at 100 mill before the end of the year so the 150 club is still very much alive. Anyone with any sense knows a film during X-mas is backloaded. Anyone who remembers how LOTR, Avatar, Night at the Museum, Meet the Fockers all performed over the holidays.

a2k Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 CF is on 381 with 3 million today. It can average 2-2.5 over next 10 days and reach 401-406 by end of Jan 3-5 weekend. So 420 is still on though not a lock-in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a2k Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 (edited) No no you forget that Jan weekend will see some drops so its still heading towards 410-415 million. I considered the jan drop. It will conservatively have a 9.5(3.5 + 3.75 + 2.25) million this weekend taking it to 390.5 http://boxofficemojo.com/daily/chart/?sortdate=2002-12-27 Then mon to thursday will add 8.5 more if you see the 2002 pattern taking it to 399 http://boxofficemojo.com/daily/chart/?sortdate=2002-12-30 The Jan 3-5 weekend will drop 30% to 35% http://boxofficemojo.com/weekend/chart/?yr=2003&wknd=01&p=.htm That will give it a 6.5(-32%) million weekend for a gross of 405.5 Then it needs 14.5 more to get 420. If you consider the following weekends alone without weekdays, it will make 3.5(-46%) + 2 + 1.25* + 0.75 + (1.5 more in all the following weekends) = 9, taking it to 414.5. so it needs just 5.5 during the weekdays corresponding to the above weekends *i have not even included the small martin luther king day weekend bump.
