I'd have to check for specific examples pero IIRC there's quite a few kids movies that have had similar Christmas increases. Makes sense, alll things considered, unless this franchise has suddenly become frontloaded (I know Ethan was there at midnight). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daxtreme Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Well boys, we're getting better drops than Avatar now. (Am I actually saying this?) I'll see myself out for a crazy day tomorrow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superduperm Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Even if it comes out at $27.5M, that's still less than a 28% drop. Avatar dropped over 32%. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As if holding better than Avatar at this gigantic level is somehow a calm before some storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superduperm Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 The main goal for Christmas Day is to double off of Christmas Eve. $55M, here we go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tokila Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 28 million is amazing. I have been looking over Cmas eve drops on BOM and nothing comes close to this. For frame of reference that is over 10mil more than JW posted on a summer Thursday 1st week. We are looking at about a 5% better hold than Avatar on the same day of its run operating at 2.5 times its level. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 That Xmas Eve number also kills the Xmas Day record by like 4m. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinksterAC Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Oh come on. That number is absurd. If you asked me on Monday morning, I would have figured 28 for the Wednesday number. This is thing is figuring to be flat compared to last weekend (minus previews). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superduperm Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 At this point, I don't see how Christmas Day isn't as high as $55M. And with a $55M Christmas Day, I can't see a second weekend below $175M... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonathanLB Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Imagine a $55M to $60M X-Mas Day probably leads to a $170M weekend. With that kind of second weekend, it seems reasonable to suggest a Monday that holds closer to last Monday. Start doing some of that math and looking ahead to the next holiday weekend and -- I can't believe I'm saying this, but if those things happen -- $1 billion domestic could be quite achievable.

MovieMan89 Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 28m and Avatar's weekend holds give it: Fri: 58m Sat: 71m Sun: 61m 190m weekend (I then buy 60,000 IMAX 3D tickets to make sure it scores an extra 1m and beats AoU's OW) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrestrial Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 So, I took a look at the 24th details out of BOM's charts for X-Mas. Obviously the openers at X-Mas didn't have a 24th result listed, so here some numbers of the record holders of the 25 December. ... then I thought better give percentages too: Thursday, December 24, 2009 TD YD Title (Click to View) Studio Daily Gross % +/- YD / LW Theaters / Avg Gross To-Date Day 1 2 Avatar Fox $11,150,998 -32% - 3,452 $3,230 $137,094,051 7 2 1 Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel Fox $7,912,356 -58% - 3,656 $2,164 $26,713,633 2 Tuesday, December 24, 2002 >Yr >Mo >Wk >>Next Day TD YD Title (Click to View) Studio Daily Gross % +/- YD / LW Theaters / Avg Gross To-Date Day 1 1 The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers NL $7,790,050 -42% - 3,622 $2,151 $123,346,204 7 2 2 Two Weeks Notice WB $1,816,750 -38% - 2,755 $659 $19,077,456 5 Wednesday, December 24, 2003 >Yr >Mo >Wk >>Next Day TD YD Title (Click to View) Studio Daily Gross % +/- YD / LW Theaters / Avg Gross To-Date Day 1 1 The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King NL $7,544,400 -40% -78% 3,703 $2,037 $157,684,384 8 2 3 Something's Gotta Give Sony $1,485,929 -24% +4% 2,677 $555 $38,631,190 13 Friday, December 24, 2004 >Yr >Mo >Wk >>Next Day TD YD Title (Click to View) Studio Daily Gross % +/- YD / LW Theaters / Avg Gross To-Date Day 1 1 Meet the Fockers Uni. $7,159,130 -42% - 3,518 $2,035 $31,555,870 3 2 2 Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events Par. $2,809,209 -35% -73% 3,622 $776 $49,608,699 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 (edited) In spite of the disappointing Thursday number, if it manages to stay flat from the OW minus previews and hits 190M, I will be happy. Don't disappoint me again. Edited December 25, 2015 by Magic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
