ZeeSoh Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 To give an idea on how messed up the numbers for Aquaman are (at least on Maoyan). It;s 3 pm and the OD presale number has increased by roughly 10%, the midnight PS number has also increased whereas the Sat/Sun numbers have barely moved at all since last night 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash Skywalker Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Muted increases so far for AQM on OD and little to none on SAT & SUN. It seems the numbers are back to normal(most of them). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent increase in show times. Notice that the Sun number is stuck since yesterday OD of other similar movies 2 days out Venom - 24.75 (102,995 shows) Black Panther - 19.2 (55,026 shows) Ant Man 2 - 15.42m (79,765 shows) Spiderman - 13.75m Justice League - 8.43m (63,109 shows) Thor Ragnarok - 7.34m (58,000 shows) PS at this point is similar to SMH which ended at around 36m final PS which is where I expect Aquaman to end up (34-36m). Gavin has said that word is good from press screenings so far so lets see if it translates into higher PS numbers. SH movies typically jump 40-60% 1 day out (the higher jump for movies with low PS so far like Thor Ragnarok and the lower jump for movies with high PS so far like Venom and BP). 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EarlyDeadlinePredictions Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Atleast 60m considering the WOM is guaranteed to be good and lack of competition? (I don't know the local releases). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldnt say locked, but presales at this point suggest 60-65m OW. It all depends on ratings and WoM. So far indications from press screenings, etc say that ratings will be good. And if ratings are really good then 65m+ OW should happen. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Seng Wah Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 OD presale is at 14.68m now, seems slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a2k Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 $65 ow * 1.85x = $120 total would be a strong result and the biggest DCEU film I guess. Hoping for $135 total (say ow around $70 and legs around $1.90-1.95x) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brainbug Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Even with a "smaller" OW (50-65M), Aquaman could have really good legs here if its WOM is great. China is a lot more unpredictable than the US, but when they love a movie, the word spreads fast (also if they hate it^^). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
