I'm pretty sure the holidays pretty much saved Passengers a ton.

 

I'm sure it helped its legs, but I think it also depressed its opening as people waited until after Christmas to watch it.  Isn't that usually what happens to holiday openings (if you are not Star Wars?) In any event I think the second weekend being higher than the first indicates that when people were looking for 'another' movie to watch, they went to the one with Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt.  It had to have been that or word of mouth, given the reviews.  There were other holiday openers which were not similarly carried by the holidays.

 

So far it seems to be doing well overseas, so I am still optimistic for above $330M ww on a $110M budget.

Also, Rogue One's 3rd Monday is the highest 3rd Monday of all-time 

 

Not bad for a nonevent

 

edit: For the record, the previous highest 3rd Monday was Toy Story 3's 5th of July gross.

 

I would have thought a December movie had the crown... Nope!

Now the REAL test begins. Time to see if R1's box office run has saved its best for last in its third act (January/February).

The BIG drop, the big shift in pace, will happen today. From there I think it will be pretty steady. I'm thinking anywhere between $6.8M and $7M for today.

It's funny how the box office works. Rogue One may have made 75-80% of its money but I have just really begun to see it. I'm at 10 times and I'm sure I'll hit 30 by the time it's gone. Today is #11 at the TCL Chinese in Laser IMAX.

Oh no, I went into the /r/movies box office week thread and now people are saying (with lots of upvotes) that Rogue One should have enough steam to...

 

- surpass Avatar for #2 all-time domestic  

 

- Surpass TFA's gross in China

 

- Get to 1.4B worldwide

 

...

I think some people need to keep their expectations in check 

Also, side note but, Sing is performing exceptionally well. If these holds keep up, it could challenge R1 for #1.

Disney Crosses $3 Billion At Domestic B.O., First Time Ever For Major Studio; Global Now At Industry Record Of $7.6B

All in for Jan. 1-Dec. 31, Disney is at $7.6B worldwide. Broken out that’s $3.001B domestic off 16 titles, including 13 new releases last year, and $4.604B abroad.

This is the second consecutive record year in Disney history by all three measures. Disney’s previous biggest year was 2015 with $5.844B globally, $2.279B domestically, and $3.565B internationally.

Awesome!!

With this comparison we can see how are the legs of R1.

I think we´ll maybe have more surprises with this run, because its decreases are not so lineal like other blockbusters.

Thanks for the fantastic data!!!

There's a box office prediction forum more optimistic than BOT?

That's the thing... it's not a box office prediction forum

 

It's just a thread in a movies forum

Since last Friday's numbers it became clear that Sing will beat Rogue One in its 4th weekend. Rogue One will definitely win the weekdays though.

My theory that nearly every person who ever saw Episode 4 and enjoyed it would eventually make it to a theater if at all possible to see Rogue One is apparently coming true.
