HenPeople who spoil new releases in their OW threads need month long bans from this site.

People who spoil Han Solo's death to movie theatre employees named DAJK deserve lifetime bans from all movie theatres.

 

Why would you write spoilers all over the bathroom.

jk I know it was you bkb

Including 6.6M previews Thursday, Strange did $22.2M at my theatre tonight. That's a very solid number, given the recent superhero fatigue we've seen; really, only Deadpool over performed this year.

 

Trolls proved that the family market was absolutely starved. $14.5M tonight (no previews). Hacksaw Ridge was also solid with $7.1M (we actually had people come out of the first movie and try to convince people in line to buy tickets for it instead of Strange).

I just checked my theater and it appears ticket prices have fallen a bit (matinees are now $8 when they used to be $8.25 and regular shows are now $10.50 when they used to be $11.50). This happening for anyone else?

 

Seeing both Doctor Strange and Hacksaw Ridge tomorrow btw. So excited.

 

Watching both sounds like quite a treat. 

 

Good idea.

Per screen averages with Deadline estimates (33M Dr Strange)

minus Thursday previews...

 

Doctor Strange - $6079

Trolls - $2783

Hacksaw Ridge - $1507

Madea Halloween - $940

Inferno - $531

Accountant - $632

Jack Reacher - $520

Ouija - $462

Girl on a Train - $510

Miss Peregrine - $298

 

My opinions

normal increases for Inferno, Jack Reacher, and Miss Peregrine.  Above average and solid for Accountant.  Way above average and out of this world for Girl on a Train.  Above average increase for Ouija.  The only low one to complain about is A Madea Halloween.  If everything else rebounded that well from weekday #'s, then expect Madea to go up past $1,000 PSA.  Very good for Ouija.  It looks like the female demographic held onto Ouiji and Girl on a Train.  Assuming Trolls had a large female audience, Miss Peregrine still survived this and will now hold until Fantastic Beasts.  90M in play.  Male audience solid all around.  It is just Madea Halloween that is a little confusing.

Glad Moonlight is doing well. It is great film. 

[Fullbuster]

With its appeal to non-comicbook audiences I think it can go beyond $85m OW, maybe close to $100m

Those Accountant and Moonlight numbers are amazing!

 

I'm surprised by Inferno relatively solid hold, but I have a high hope for Accountant to stay in the Top 5 for the weekend.

 I thought Tilda was great in Doctor Strange. That scene on the balcony. Wow. 

 

Great for Doctor Strange anyway, $80m+ woul be beyond tracking. 

[dxmatrixdt]

can anyone call Miss Peregrine and find out if they are doing double features with Trolls this weekend?  that will give a hint for Sunday's drop

[DeeCee]

Bang on the expected opening.

Lol wut?

 

Not sure if srs.

 

Are you forgetting Suicide Squad? It also over performed. Deadpool isn't the only one.

 

Also Cap 3 did well. The only thing that held BvS back was it's toxic WoM. It would have easily hit a billion if it was well received.

He's extrapolating and comparing his theatre to total Domestic.

There is definitely no superhero fatigue I remember people talking about superhero fatigue back in 2013, they're still wrong 3 years after

WOM is spreading! I bloody hope so, coz it needs some amazing one if it wants to cross $100m. Damn, i was counting on it doing at least $20m OW. 

[EmpireCity]

Looks like it will be around the $33.5m range for Friday.  I think word of mouth built throughout the day and will be interesting to see the Saturday number.  I think it still has a shot at $90m for the weekend.  

[efialtes76]

Amazing hold for The Accountant.

Without Jack Reacher could have done 100M.

$20M was virtually impossible with the theater and screen count (it's on 1 screen everywhere and not in any of the biggest auditoriums, which go to the other two new releases, with a running time that limited it to 4 shows a day at most places). It's doing very well actually.

I'm curious if Arrival will get the biggest auditoriums next weekend.
