It hasn't really followed ROTK so far.  And I'm not expecting an Avatar like drop, but I don't think a sizable drop is happening until the week after New Years.  

 

Theres no new releases to compete with and take screens, and we're coming off of a second weekend not an opening one.

 I was just referring to the weekend drops. We saw that it indeed fall harder than ROTK this weekend. I expect the same over the NYE although it does help that New Years falls on a Friday. I'm not taking anything away from TFA or giving anything to ROTK. This is not a sky-is-falling projection. Making $76m is :o  I just don't expect anything close to Avatar's drop. Weekend grosses are too high to have that kind of hold.

 

 

PS: I remember projecting that for TFA, $500m was the floor, thinking that $500-$700m would be in the cards. Never thought it would make $544m in two weeks!!!!

So Sat came out lower than Rth's estimate.  Not bad though, still above 55M.  Sunday drop should be softer than Disney's projection; we got a huge jump last weekend and I expect the same now (sub 10%).  

 

2nd Weekend Attendance record got smashed with the 153M estimate.  No reports of 3D/IMAX shares yet, but at the same splits as last week we're looking at ~14.7M tickets.  The old record was SM1 at ~12.3M tickets (Shrek 2 also probably over 12.0M tickets).  Total tickets sold through 10.5 days is ~52.0M (low-end), so its also on record pace for attendance as well (TDK's the next closest with 40.4M through 10 days).

ROTK has a 5-day opening so its true 3-day OW is deflated.

TFA has massive 57m previews, take that out and its drop is ~19%.

You can't compare these 2 like that.

It fail harder than ROTK because of TFA's enormous $57m previews. Take out that and the drop is only 19.5% compared to ROTK's  30%. Still not a good comparison though because ROTK opened on a Wednesday, deflating the weekend some.

Even with a 50% drop until 3rd weekend (Monday to Sunday), and this movie will be at $690+ million.

 

A few months ago someone would post something like:

 

"TFA will break Titanic's record in 3 weeks"....What would be your response?

Return of the King had its first two days counted separate from opening weekend. This makes the second weekend drop look better. It likely would have been around 45-50% instead of 30% with a Friday release.

 

Star Wars will end up around 20% or lower drop excluding previews from opening weekend. It will have a stronger hold next weekend than ROTK.

ROTK opened on a Wednesday.  It would have done ~100M with a Friday opening and then a near 50% drop for the 2nd weekend.
