It's an act to have a minority opinion apparently. I'm perfectly fine with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tubes Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 So, TFA did 63.5 during regular Friday showings. Is $70m still max capacity for US/Canada cinemas or does that even matter in the digital age? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 I'm wondering if repeat viewings from fanboys will help offset some of the general audience shopping and traveling who plan to see it later in the film's run. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthOpeningGross Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 $240M weekend still looking very good. Hard to believe that anyone might still think that Avatar's DOM record is not going down -- it's going down hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max feasible capacity is SM1/SM3's Saturday (7.5M tickets) which can be anywhere from 67-85M depending on the 3D share (low end would be no 3D).

As far as I remeber that does not count for all of those countries. At least not in their local way/style to declare OWs. Ufff finally cought up with the thread...

GiantCALBears Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 17 minutes ago, Cmasterclay said: Look, when it comes down to sports, and box office in general, it's about isolating variables. The fight and the Derby were CLEARLY the only factors impact AOU's Saturday, and the Sunday hold confirmed that. This weekend, you cannot POSSIBLY isolate sports as the only intercedent variable having a statistical impact. There's so many other variables- shopping, travel, parties, church, and even baking fucking cookies- that can have an impact. It's just faulty statistical thinking to put all of the significance on ONE variable when there's so many in play. Sure, maybe sports DOES have a big impact, but there's no way to prove it on this weekend like with AOU or the Finals in June, so to call anyone who disagrees an idiot makes you look less like some noble crusader and more like a dick. Pretty sure I didn't call anyone an idiot or said it was the sole reason affecting Sunday's drop but sure... However you want to make yourself feel better, go for it.

Lordmandeep Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 (edited) Projection 120.5 66 +5% 49 -26% 235.5 million Edited December 19, 2015 by Lordmandeep 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spizzer Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Deadline reported 10.6M from PLF, 8% so I was on the dot with my low-end from yesterday. No word on IMAX yet but I'd venture ~7M for Friday + 5.7M from previews so 12.7M IMAX OD, and should do 14M more from Sat/Sun for 26-27M IMAX OW. PLF will go over 20M, and we'll get just under 50M with both formats combined (maybe 50M with D-Box included). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tubes Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Even though we all expected it, I'm still blown away that TFA obliterated the December weekend record within 18 hours of release. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayhawk the Hutt Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Hope it gets at least 70m today. 250m OW would just be too epic. I can't wait to follow the rest of its run. I wonder why the estimates got so crazy last night. The enormous pre sales probably threw off industry tracking models. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
