I wonder if we will get future advanced sales figures from Rallax's theater, will be interesting to see it for Apocalypse, Alice 2 and bigger summer movies so we can have a running tally. Looking back (to 10 days ago) at people freaking out because presales for CW at AMC were 10M before previews began and expecting 200M+ OW seems pretty funny now. 

 

A = 189k

A2 = 51k

Meanwhile, Mother's Day subtly drops 70% :/

This should give us a solid idea of what to expect with Infinity War Part 1 and especially Part 2. The latter is going to be a big event and very frontloaded. Doctor Strange is a wildcard, but I think the rest of the movies should all fall within a 2.5-2.7x

Hopefully Black Panther does well on OW then because I definitely want that one to outgross every first one-off movie besides Guardians and Spidey

It'll easily do 110M for the 4 day.

Sony wants a new franchise, believe me. But I agree, the games peaked a long time ago.

I watched Horrible Bosses last night, and there's a scene where Charlie Day plays Angry Birds in 2011. It's way older than I even thought it was.

 

Then again, kids still wear Angry Birds shirts so I'm expecting decent numbers for it.

So

 

3-day OW: 96M

DOM: 257M

 

Super early predicts

Also, next week is weird because I'm actually moderately interested in all three movies releasing... welp.

Money Monster was ok. Would have been better if the two grown adults behind me hadn't talked the whole time like we were in their living room watching Redbox.

You guys have to agree, insane we're in the mid 20s in # of films over $1b WW. Global expansion even in the face of some economic headwinds has been mighty impressive.

Those headwinds were mainly a factor 7 years ago. It's been mostly a story of growth since then.

And it's mostly due to China, especially in the case of Zootopia.

Grown-ups are actually worse than teenagers. In terms of how many complaints they get.

 

Because even with a teenager, even if they're trying to act cool in front of friends, they'll shut up when the usher goes in there and tells them to be quiet. Grown ups on occasion will argue with the usher in the middle of the movie.

Canna there has been a global slowdown the past couple of years even in China, talking about economies in general not specifically the consumer or BO related. Makes the continued growth in those BO totals all the more impressive.

China has been growing a little more slowly than it once did, but it's not like its economy shrank recently. No telling what will happen in the future, though.

Deaccelerating growth is why our own stock market has gone no where over that time period (& it's performing better than most) so it clearly matters. Of course they are still growing, when they stop our global economy better pray India is ready to take over that perch.
