Attendance wise yes, but I was talking raw dollars. But hey, breaking both would be cool with me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had it 125-130m from early in the day and didn't bother changing it from that, people would go crazy anything over 100m lol 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm expectating a big jump in Matinees for Saturday and evening/night to stay similar to yesterday. Hopefully Rth gives us an update before late night. I don't want to wait for DHD at 2 or 3 am. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's what I'm seeing as well, maybe a little stronger because mornings/matinees were a lot more full but evenings are like 70-80% instead for reserved shows at least. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warmaster506 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 The Marvel fans I have been at war with are for some reason pretty silent. I guess they were so sure that AOU would smash everything. Another board of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rthmessiah Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 1 hour ago, Darth AndyLL said: LOL... I'm hoping Disney is low-balling it. If not it shows that huge pre-sales is making it tough for the pro estimators to estimate. There's quite a few factors explained before but yes big pre-sales especially these days can be issue (industry some had it going 150+), also throw around number like 43m matinees doesn't help when for starting its not even a number from all theatres(just over 50% of them) it included pre-sales and it was from around 1pm pst(inclu EC only thru 1pm) See Monday what actuals are 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAJK Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Had 3 guys show up probably in their mid twenties all bought tickets for Star Wars for a matinee show. Wasn't full, only about 90 people in the theatre, but when the logo came up for the opening crawl they stood up and shouted "BOOOO Star Trek Beyond 2016!" Then they left without asking for their money back. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
