DAR Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 So this is likely going to do in one weekend what ESB did in its original run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Spizzer, BOM has the screen count at 14,300. My guess is TA2 has the screen record due to higher theater count and zero competition in early May. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That wouldn't be too bad at all and is quite reasonable. I thought you were thinking more like 30ish%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sisters and Alvin are doing way better than what I was expecting against a 100M+ OD. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jandrew Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 (edited) Look at the slate of games on tomorrow. Nothing screams blockbuster, "i HAVE to stay home and watch." Like Kelli said, maybe if your team is on the verge of playoffs, but thats it. The Steelers/Broncos is the only game imo thats significant this weekend. NFL will have a bigger inpact once playoffs start in a couple weeks, but for this weekend? I cant see it. SW is an event people have been waiting on for 10 years, whos been waiting on the Seahawks/Browns?...

Infernus Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 (edited) Btw, doesn't that 56% Friday increase for The Good Dinosaur seem too low? It isn't even losing that many theaters and Creed and HG both of which lost more theaters both increased more than it.

Yeah, I was expecting sub 10m OW, especially with how everything else was performing leading up to Star Wars. I guess sellouts have helped them in a way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also not like it's the Super Bowl, they're less important games today. Star Wars is a movie people won't skip to watch football. That's your opinion, not reality. Go back through holiday releases & look at the Sunday drops for a bunch of different films recently from I Am Legend, to the Hobbit to Tron Legacy in comparison to theSaturday holds too. The only thing to hold well on that Sunday pre holiday last decade was Avatar & there was a huge snowstorm that Friday & Saturday which clearly affected the OW holds.

Ok. I guess I'm saying families with young kids now arrive on the scene from today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webslinger Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Mind-blowing for Star Wars. I'll admit that I held out on thinking it would beat Harry Potter's daily record until this week, but it all makes sense considering the HUGE amount of hype surrounding it, December opening theories be damned. That being said, while the opening record is obviously going to be a slam dunk, I'm skeptical of whether it can reach Jurassic's Saturday record of nearly $70 million. Whereas the fan base (and plenty of general audiences) showed up in full force on opening day, this point may be where we start to see business spread out further over the coming holiday weekdays. That being said, though, it's still in for a mind-bogglingly huge weekend number regardless of how it holds up today and tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrFanaticGuy34 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 I don't see why anyone should be disappointed by a $120M OD. It's still the biggest OD as of now. It's not a flop, guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Close to 50% wouldn't surprise me since THU previews are a huge part of the weekend gross. Depends on how it does the next days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats also your opinion that its NFL, you have no clear proof. For all we know, it could be because of all day Xmas church services. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuart360 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Saturday may not even increase as today is a huge shopping day. The record is far from certain but i couldn't care less, anything over $200mil is ridiculous for this time of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
