I linked to Regal's page. Only 1/3rd of Regal locations even have these deals.

 

Given what I've heard of them, it shouldn't be too surprising that Regal is late to the party.  Not a value judgement, just an observation.

 

I should also point out that both Cinemark and Cinema West are smaller regional chains, so they have more incentive to be inventive.  In the case of Sacramento, both UA (part of Regal) and Century (part of Cinemark) have DEEP ties to the community, so again there's incentive to try to keep the community invested in movie going.  And the Palladio out in Folsom is just outclassing everyone by being awesome.

 

Didn't check out the Studio Movie Grill we have in the area (its analogous to the Alamo), but it wouldn't surprise me to see discount Tuesdays there, either.  EDITED::: Yep. Discounted tickets on Tuesday as well.

 

Either way, no one is saying it's universal.  Or even perhaps in a majority of theaters.  But it is obviously expanding over time much like other trends.   If we can see bumps for Canadian holidays, I tend to think even 30 or 40 percent of chains having discounted tickets can and will lead to an increase in overall box office numbers from what it would be without them.

Oddly enough, I'm starting get really antsy for Dory. Can't wait to see both how quality the movie is and how it will perform. Thanks a lot @tribefan695

Oh, it was inevitable.  I just made it happen sooner

Very true, I feel like around Pixar releases, I get really hyped regardless, even with the recent disappointments. Then again, Andrew Stanton gets rid of most of that worry.

 

Not getting rid of my obnoxiously post-ironic name/avatar/title/signature though :P

It was ironic?

The bar for XA is FC's 155m.

155m is 2.36x of the 3-day ow of 65.8m. DOFP did 2.57x of it's 3-day ow of 90.8m. So going by sequelitis and wom, that drop in multiplier makes sense

BvS actually was an event movie though. First time Batman and Superman ever on screen together plus first time Wonder Woman is put to film. 

 

Civil War, before all the reviews came in and made everyone go crazy, was just another in a long line of Marvel heroes who have been in movies together before. The only new thing was Spiderman who's gotten 5 movies in the last 12 years. 

 

Oh thank you guess I missed that butt hurt response in my first post will be sure to update it though

Still a strong record imo...Brave, MU, IO all did better than the previous movie. TGD put on the breaks.

Dory has a good shot at being around IO.

What are you talking about, Illumination constantly reinvents animation and is way better than shitty Pixar or Pootopia.
