Tuesday Actuals: JW 24.3M | DOWN GOES TDK TUESDAY | Not the Spielberg, Cameron, or Nolan thread!

[Fancyarcher]

200M 2nd weekend? 

 

Now lets not have too get overenthusiastic in our second weekend predictions. 

[PDC1987]

Ever since Ray left, budgets and runtimes are never added.

How wonderful.

Are some people honestly arguing that JW doesn't "deserve" to make this kind of money but TA did? Give me a break.

 

I like avengers a lot and havent sen JW yet, but I take the Original JP over avengers anytime. So i am hopping it goes past avengers.

Will JW be in my top 5 films (for the yea at the end of the year? Nope

Is it better than The Avengers in almost every way? Yes

Am I happy to see it making gobs and gobs of money? Yes

Dose it deserve to make the money based in the quality? Eh but here we like to follow box office and seeing something do huge numbers is always fun, and its not a bad film by any means in fact its pretty good so I'll take it.

I think this is going to fall much less then people expect on Wed. Let's look at the first Wed drops of the top 6 June movies:

MoS: -21.8%

TS3: -11% (following a -3% drop on Tues)

RotF: -19%

AoE: -25.7% (following staying about even on Tues)

PoA: -5.1%

MonstersU: -15.3%

Low drops are definitely possible

[redfirebird2008]

What was the deal with TS3's Friday increases? Seem kind of low. For some reason I remember a lot of people discussing that during its run.

It's only now looking back at the 47 other superhero movies that have come out where the avengers starts to look a bit more generic. In may of 2012 though it was phenomenal, more so than JW is right now.

so we didn't know tuesdays are discount days at the theaters. tickets were only $5.50... but it was packed, and jurassic world was sold out.

 

 

See?  That a proof that the JW audience expand more than the usualy GA but who does not know tuesday is discount in the US and canada.

 

Maybe people who goe rarely to theater that s why i don't see a huge drop for today if someone want to see the movie he goes.. nomatter the day, discount or not

 

It s just an event movie everyone want to see it but can't so they return but can't and so on....

 

When you have a lot of 50years+ in a theater for a blockbuster you know it's gonna blow.

The cheap Tuesday prices are inconsistent. Canada seems to have a lot more of it than the U.S. In the towns I have lived, none of the theaters have offered a discount on Tuesday.

Yeah I just found out last week that a theater near me, that I have been going to for years, has discount Tuesday.  They don't advertise it and may be new, but it was just weird to see.

[PDC1987]

Most theaters around here do Discount Tuesday, but I've also seen theaters do it on Monday or Wednesday.

[nitro514]

theaters in my area do it on thursday

[Ethan Hunt]

My theater does it on Wednesday

[GiantCALBears]

Some theaters never do discounts either, it's very inconsistent.

Everything is bigger in Texas included movie prices.

lol our prices are nothing compared to New York and I bet California. Those states are too bloody expensive.

California in the big metropolitan areas especially have insane prices still.

Is a regular 2D adult evening in Texas $13.50? Because that's what I paid for JW in Dublin, California (near San Francisco). My state could well have the most expensive movie tickets in the country...

EDIT: I see other people brought up CA as well. (And inflation may be outpacing the rest of the country, exactly two years ago a similar 2D adult evening ticket to Monsters University, at the same location, was "only" $11.50 or $12.50.)

Definition of insane price? Just curious, ha.

[PDC1987]

In NYC and LA 3D IMAX tickets have hit up to $24.50.
