They don't reveal it because they are the source. I'm pretty sure they (excluding RTH) has access to Rentrak, either through jobs at industry or major at Uni (Film and Media, Data Analysts, Investors and Relations). With Rentrak, that have real time data of boxoffice #s of regional boxoffice chains or collections of theatres and extrapolate those #s out. Rth is a huge mystery though, he's been doing it since BOM days in like 2003 and he's in a class all by himself. P.S. If there was enough support, pretty sure we could convince BO.com to sync up with Rentrak and allow moderators access to Rentrak. Might even grow the site by taking marketshare/readers away from Deadline/THR/BOM, etc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narniadis Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Good hold for Revanent and TFA. I am really curious to see how bad the holds are this weekend with the storm. Should make a fairly depressed weekend much worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayhawk the Hutt Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) Next weekend we should see some very good holdsl. Assuming there isn't another storm coming up the pipeline. Edited January 22, 2016 by Jayhawk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamblinRed Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 numbers are going to be low this weekend. most of the eastern seaboard is going to be out of action. From Atlanta to Charlotte up through DC, Philly and NYC. Boston will be spared. ice is a big issue in North Carolina right now. Atlanta is probably going to be lost today and tomorrow. Charlotte to-DC, Baltimore is probably gone all weekend NYC probably tonight and tomorrow are gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamblinRed Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I don't think it is going to take much to win this weekend, maybe 15M. I'n thinking a close one between Revenant and TFA with the former just edging out the latter. latest tracking for the winter storm is not encouraging. Updated snow expectations have 18-24 inches for Philly and 12-18 for NYC both increases in total from yesterday. Also remember the NFC and AFC championship games are on Sunday so that will depress Sunday as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
