Yep looking at about 1.4m HUGE, if you think Bankstown was busy it just managed to make it into top 100 locs

Wow that's massive for previews!

[eXtacy]

Wow that's massive for previews!

 

Any comparisons, what did the previous one do?

[DeeCee]

It didn't didn't have previews.  It had a full all day opening on the Wednesday ANZAC Day public holiday and made $6m.

That is huge and today is already looking big!

Can a normal Thursday beat a public holiday, I would be surprised

[DeeCee]

Zero chance.  I would expect roughly $4m each day over the weekend.

[JJ-8]

Yeah thurs not beating the firsts OD. but sat on the other hand...

And for comparison.

Ff7 managed 14.6 after 300k of previews.

So we're looking at a $68m w/e.  Not too bad.   

[DeeCee]

FF7 previews were far more limited.

 

66 screens for FF7 vs 760 screens for AoU

 

AoU should have made $3m.

Hahaha. Nice.

Lol

Seriously though it should mean an opening above 15m. Probably into the 16m+ territory.

My breakdown for now -

Wed - 1.4m

Thurs - 4.1m

Fri - 4.6m

Sat - 5.8m (I think this could 6m but resisting. )

Sun - 4.3m

Ow = 18.8m

I know I'm optimistic but if this breaking the ow in the U.S. then it needs to be big here.

[JJ-8]

Just sitting down to AOU now. Pretty much full vmax cinema here (90%)

I'm thinking around $3m-$3.5m based on my site's numbers. But it is a pretty small sample size, but we were well under F&F7 OD but just over double TA2 previews in admissions. 

[DeeCee]

I would hope it's more then the 3.3 FF7 made. I'm thinking $4+.

Its not school holidays anywhere except I think WA while FF7 had school holidays and the lead in to easter allowing it's Thursday to be much larger. I except a big spike tomorrow and Saturday compared with FF7 which basically was the same everyday.

[JJ-8]

Holy shit did read that screen count right. 760????

That my friends is new widest film ever here!!!!

[JJ-8]

Oh and loved the film.

I'm thinking closer to 4.5 OD.

[Neo]

Oh and loved the film.

I'm thinking closer to 4.5 OD.

Record?

[Robertron]

Given that's the Wednesday preview count I expect that to increase over the weekend.

Record?

Nope.

DH2 7.2M

TA 6M

[JJ-8]

And dh2 also had that high screen and it played for 24 hrs.

It could shock with 6m+ plus but I doubt it can do that OD. I still believe its biggest day will be this sat (Anzac day. Public holiday everywhere
