Maybe it should be "Fry the Fish!" Simple, brutal and tasty. But maybe a bit too Southern for everyone's palate. Sushi? ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krissykins Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Yeh. -25.5% would be $6.6m. Hoping for at least $4.4m for Ghostbusters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuardianDevil Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 (edited) There's a couple hundred thousand people in San Diego right now that may not have time to make it to the movies this weekend,and a lot of them are the target demographic for Star Trek Beyond. If we are accounting for a few missed Ghostbuster bucks due to IMAX,expect STB to be missing a few million this weekend that it will likely make back next week.

Ezen Baklattan Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 My guesses, see if I got a hot streak: Pets - $6.5m Ghostbusters - $4.4m Dory - $1.7m Tarzan - $1.5m Mike and Dave - $1.1m 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfHan Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 SLOP: 6.6M Wednesday -26% 5.9M Thursday -10% 7M Friday +18% 9.1M Friday +30% 7.1M Sunday -22% 23.2M Weekend, 54% drop Ghostbusters: 4.8M Wednesday -23% 4.1M Thursday -14% 7M Friday +70% 9.1M Saturday +30% 6.4M Sunday -30% 22.5M Weekend, 51% drop 4 movies are having previews on Thursday night so I expect all drops to be at least 10% (SLOP might get by with 8-9%).

Ezen Baklattan Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Fox better pray for Ice Age walkups. It has five showtimes for tonight's previews at my nearby theater with reserved seating. It has sold two so far. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Craig Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 But is Ice Age really a Thursday night Previews type film? It's going to do solid Saturday walkups I'd imagine and see some planned Friday night families...but tonight? Not sure I see it as it's a "work night" for the parents who'd be taking them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but when there are four new releases it will cause a drop. Let's also not forget SLOP will be losing a lot of 3D screens this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said it was, but even animated movies can score a couple million in Thursday night previews, especially in the summer. I think even BFG and Angry Birds (which came out while a lot of schools were still in session) had more at a similar point in time. Then again, anecdotal evidence is far from perfect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
