The only pre-sales I consider insane over the past couple of years is THG.

 

That run.

[Dementeleus]

What about TA? 

 

It didn't have insane presales at all. It was a big walk-up movie.

[Klingo]

I think Fault is going to be a hit just by proxy, but I don't understand things like it's the most liked trailer in You Tube history, that really means nothing.

 

Thought it was Gangnam Style.

[reddevil18]

That's a great increase for Spidey!

My thoughts exactly. Awesome arachnid legs!

No different than when people say a movie is going to be a big hit because of its trailer views on Youtube.

[Dementeleus]

Not necessarily "insane" but really really good considering the budget.

 

Well, sure -- it's going to be profitable after the first weekend alone. But objectively that doesn't mean the numbers are insane.

I think that's ridiculous too.

[MovieMan89]

Something like this is what I could see Fault doing this weekend:

 

Friday: 18m

Saturday: 12m

Sunday: 8.5m

 

38.5m

I will leave this to you experts, I am clueless when it comes to these things like pre-sales, matinees, walk-up and other shit pertaining to the theaters in the US alone.

I don't think it'd drop that much on Sat.

A fly is giving me a hard time now.

True, but it's still very good.

It should have a huge Sat drop if it plays like a lot of breakouts among the young female audience. They tend to rush to see things more than any other demo. Magic Mike for example fell 42% on Saturday with a similar OD.

Thank you. It's very absurd.

Lets see if it beats the 73% women audience on OW of Magic Mike.

Squat that mother.

Maleficent's actually having really good week days. I'd say there's a strong chance it stays #1 this weekend, unless Fault really breaks out.

You meant to type until I do believe, "....until Fault really breaks out."

 

Here's some anecdotal "evidence" to chew. The book is among the top 5 books that stays checked out of Davidson Co.(Nashville) Middle School Libraries and while it's not in the top 5 it's in heavy rotation among our high school libraries. I don't think we are unique in that regard concerning it's popularity.

Squat that mother. 

I am trying, but it is fuckin' fast and sneaky little bitch. I am going to need the assistants of an expert.

Throw something at it.
