Fantastic Beasts keeps on surprising. The idea that it would behave like a HP movie is laughable now.

 

Well, the first three Potter Nov openers had 3.5, 2.9 & 2.8+ multipliers....    This looks to land around the latter 2.

 

Only the last one with huge $20m+ Thur previews which inflates opening w/e and lowers multipliers did a front loaded 2.36

I think a 3.1x multi (230m) is very likely to happen at this point. Gonna be optimistic and hope for a 3.2x.

A lot more was expected from FB's previews based mainly on DH part 2 it seems.

Dude holidays are over after today essentially for this movie. Time to get back to harsher drops on a daily basis. Bet the under. It won't be a factor by the time RO opens.

FB didn't have those great holds because of the holidays alone lol. It has great WOM. That means it will have above the norm drops for the rest of the run.

Nicholson back in a proper dramatic plum role would be so great. If only.

 

He claims he'd return to the big screen, if he got a great script, but given the films he apparently turned down in recent years, I just think he's enjoying retirement.

@FantasticBeasts

You can take a look at the post Thanksgiving weekends at BOM:

2 charts: the worst and the best drops

I pre-sorted the links for highest total to have the smaller releases not on top, but you can change back to 'best/worst' with clicking on the correspondingly tab (in this case 'Rank') on the top of the charts.

clicking twice changes descending to the opposite...

 

worst

best

http://www.boxofficemojo.com/alltime/weekends/postthanksgiving.htm?page=hold&sort=totalgross&order=DESC&p=.htm

 

Have fun!

where on earth is this fb optimism coming from. it's having worse holds than mj2 which had a 2.74x multiplier

Lol, wut? MJ2 dropped 49% in it's second weekend. FB dropped 39%. They are not even close. 

 

Plus, MJ2 had an embarrassing 64% post-Thanksgiving drop, one of the worst ever. I doubt FB drops more than 50-55%.
