Hacksaw Ridge was great.   Funny, sad, and batshit crazy.

 

Hope it has goods legs.

 100M+ weekend?

 

$110M 

[That One Girl]

Doctor Strange was great. 

[Lordmandeep]

DS will likely cross 200 million as competition is lower but after civil war I will be catious.

 

The fans are loving the product though this year.

[James]

So:

 

Thor 2

Midnight : 7.1

Fri (sans md): 24.8

Sat: 32 (+30%)

Sun: 21.7 (-32%)

OW: 85.7m

 

Strange

Midnight: 9.4m

Fri (sans md): 21m

Sat: 27.4 (+30%)

Sun: 18.6 (-32%)

OW: 77.4m

 

Might be nothing, but on MT Strange keeps losing ground to Trolls (went from 51% to 46% in a couple of hours, while Trolls strongly increased).

Assuming it follows Thor 2 on the weekend, I don't think 200m is locked. It would need a 2.6x multi, which, considering how CBMs fared this year and the MASSIVE competition up ahead (FB, Moana + SW in a a month) might prove difficult. It has a good shot? OF COURSE. But it is not locked. 

[The Futurist]

Doctor Strange has better reviews than Hacksaw Ridge, did not expected that.

 

DS : 90%, 7,3avg

HR : 87%, 7,2avg

MT and Pulse mean nothing once the weekend hits.

Why not? Serious question. I want to understand. Does it have to do with physical sales taking over?

Some of the boys on our WhatsApp chat pointed out to me several times now that the Thursday preview numbers are getting bigger and bigger as a portion of the weekend number. So I guess it shouldn't be that shocking if it comes in that around 75 or 80.

 

ROGUE ONE will be the exception dude! HOLIDAYS & STAR WARS even if it's shit...

Yep.

[The Panda]

That's a nice opening day number for Strange

[DAJK]

Legitimately excited to go to work today, the first shift in a long time that won't be boringly slow...

[filmlover]

@Doctor Rth what say you about the other openers?

[narniadis]

31 would be ok, just surprising to me in someways that it could be that "frontloaded" but it is also not just DR Strange, but also Trolls and Hacksaw that would appear to be frontloaded in regards to Previews/Friday totals.

 

I know the market was starving but thats like crazy.

[keysersoze123]

Its really early. let us wait until 11PM PST. it could go up. 29m would be quite low considering the previews. Still its a break out for an unknown SH. kudos to marvel getting another SH movie with strong reviews.

Can't see it going much higher than 82-83m with the high end, no lower than about 75-76 million. 80 million seems to be the target with RTH's current range

82m is what I predicted so I hope it hits that high.

Yeah general audiences haven't seen this side of Marvel until now. Well, I guess they got a little taste of it with the tiny bit that Thanos was in GotG, seeing Scarlet Witch with her powers, but still nothing on this level.

Spoiler

Dormammu

alone getting a little screen time will likely have some viewers going WTF. I was glad they actually showed him after mentioning him a few times earlier in the movie, so audiences who have no clue who he is now at least have an inkling of an idea when he shows up down the road.
