baumer Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I'm going to say IS drops by just under 50% this weekend, maybe 49%. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deep Wang Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Hmm thanks for the background information, so it seems like my hypothesis was on the right track, in terms of what they did when Titanic was released, which was similar to what they're doing for IS on IMAX. What's interesting is I noticed that even some of the digital IMAX screens are doing this weekday to weekend little roller-coaster, decreasing showtimes now on the weekdays, and increasing the showtimes for IS on the weekend. Except the number of IMAX showtimes have been reduced on weekdays in many IMAX theaters, due to the film's runtime, which I think logically explains the drop. That reduces the positive effect IMAX would have had, since due to the runtime and due to the reduction in the amount of showings, most people in reality can only make one showing a day on weekdays. The number of IMAX showtimes going back up for the weekend should boost the weekend hold. Except that it isn't similar. Titanic came out in '97, and I was living in Mt. Pleasant which had a little mom and pop Cinema 4. They didn't open until 2 I think. These days we typically stay open all day, I can vouch for that. If they really are dropping a showtime due to the length of Interstellar at certain theaters, then it's probably for really late shows, like 11-12, and those aren't likely to sell out on a second or a third weekend anyway. Especially if the movie skews older like Interstellar does. Those old folks aren't going to stay out past 7! Right Tele? I think you're seeing what you want to see and keeping the hope alive that the movie will surprise everyone and leg it out to an impressive number. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyGossamer Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I'm thinking a 57% drop. Why such a harsh drop? I think having IMAX and good enough WOM will help keep around 50%... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
