20% drop on Sunday?

 

It is the heart of summer. TDK dropped 8.5% and TDKR dropped 10.5%. GOTG dropped 17.8%. I would guess the actual will be around 25% for Squad. Bigger question is that $38.8m number for Saturday.

Apparently the West Coast has more of the demographic that likes this movie.

 

But they didn't on Thur and Friday?

The demographic is of the working and preferred to watch on Saturday night? Idk, lol. Besides, wasn't the Friday number unexpected? People were originally projecting 40 million, and it went to 45.

BFG is really one of Spielbers s biggest flop of his carrer with 1941.

 

Too bad, it was really good.

Not difference in work schedule, but difference in demographic. Apparently the big turnout and support were from minority ethnic groups. Minority ethnic groups tend to be of the working class? 

 

EDIT: I've never lived on the West Coast, but is the minority working class better represented there? I have lived in Hawaii, and its majority minority ethnic groups mostly based in the service industry.

So Suicide Squad will finish around 250m dom I guess.

RTH had it $65-66m so $44.4-45.5m, that night.  He's eerily good.

Which is why I can't imagine he was off by almost $2M for Saturday off of his high number for it.

Remember that RTH can be a bit wrong with very big openings like this because the numbers are so huge.

grim22 mentioned that one reason rentrak/comScore have to be accurate with actuals is that other studios might make a fuss about records. Given the territory here with Dory and Deadpool, it seems we'll get our answer tomorrow, for sure.
