TP = The Prequels OT = The Original trilogy ST = The Sequel trilogy GFFA = Galaxy Far Far Away That tends to happen when you spend too much time on the Cantina forums where everything Star Wars related is an acronym. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan Hunt Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Isn't a lot easier to use PT instead of TP for consistencies sake? Lol 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be cool if FB can mange a (25-30)% increase in numbers from Tuesday. Discount Tuesday is also a factor though. I still think there's a good sized increase around 20-25% or so. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted November 23, 2016 Author Share Posted November 23, 2016 With discount Tuesdays being way bigger than what they were even last year and especially the year before and the year before I don't think the increased today is going to be that huge. It will still be substantial of course but not like it was 2 years ago. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terrestrial Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 (edited) Walt Disney is reporting that their latest Thanksgiving animation release drew $2.6M last night from previews starting at 7pm, beating a slew of previous preview nights for their feature tunes including Zootopia‘s Thursday night ($1.7M), Big Hero Six ($1.4M), The Good Dinosaur (which had a Tuesday night preview record of $1.3M) as well as Frozen ($1.2M). http://deadline.com/2016/11/moana-fantastic-beasts-tuesday-box-office-thanksgiving-1201859220/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter someone started a thread I guess, does a Tuesday preview also count as weekend???

That's a great start for Moana, especially since I figured it'd be more backloaded. Moana could be in for a very Frozen-esque run after all. I think competition from Sing and Rogue One will stop it from being as huge, but 300m is a good possibility. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PanaMovie Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 So it's a sub 45% drop for Fantastic Beasts even possible?? W 11.2 T 8.4 F 17.6 S 16.7 S 8.4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Yeah, this will be at $150M by the end of the weekend. Maybe that will silence the "but it's a Harry Potter movie" naysayers once and for all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just being greedy though, that's a pretty good number. Quoting myself here cause I wanted it a little higher than 9M and I've just gotten my wish, awesome. Worrying news for FB though regarding that preview number for Moana. It might break out big and suck its oxygen a bit. No, it's not the same audience I know, but still, every cent helps!
