Caved and decided to do an 8:15 tonight with some friends. So my tradition of seeing Star Wars on opening night doesn't end here after all. Amazingly there were still plenty of seats available. Everything is going according to plan....

It's only an hour and a half from start time, I legitimately didn't expect half the auditorium to still be open. Especially since it's a popular theater.

There was never any other possible outcome than the theater you chose to go to last minute would be a ghost town.

Lol, you really don't believe that this movie just doesn't have the TFA hype you think it does do you?

A note from Asgard. 

 

@Doctor Rth and his FBeastsis busy this weekend but he'll try and give numbers but he probably won't be super active.

BWAHAHAHAHA. Even Rth can't be bothered with this peasant's film.

 

NOT AN EVENT.

Heck, even with TFA you could go to almost any chain and still get seats. They just keep adding showtimes.

[Dementeleus]

Final sellout count for the LA area (unless I manage to do a super-late update near midnight night to catch any stragglers):

121 sellouts (+52) / 677 showtimes (+19)

 

Final comps:

BVS finished with 100 sellouts / 591 showtimes. It grossed 27.7m in previews

CW finished with 78 sellouts / 635 showtimes. It grossed 25m in previews

ULTRON finished with 68 sellouts / 748 showtimes. It grossed 27.6m in previews

 

TFA finished with 441 sellouts / 969 showtimes. It grossed 57m in previews.

 

Breakdown:

2D: 72 / 391

3D: 22 / 213

IMAX: 13 / 46

PLF: 12 / 23

D-BOX/4DX: 2 / 4 

 

Unless Los Angeles is significantly over-performing the rest of the country, high-20s seems like an absolute low-end. Low-30s -- maybe 30-32m? -- sounds like a good guess.

[DeeCee]

I'm thinking $29-31m in previews then. 

[DAJK]

wow.

 

WOM is gonna be through the roof

$30m sounds like a lock and would also follow trends from some overseas markets.

I wouldn't know admittedly. The group I went with we all bought as soon as they went on sale.

30 mill previews would translate to about 65 mill opening day and 140 opening or so. 450 would be pretty close but likely with that. I think since this is more adult and more anticipated it does more like 27/55 for a 130 weekend and 420 or so total.
