Really depends on what you're looking for, but usually the most important takeaway for just a casual glance is the comp.  More on that in a bit.   But even that is highly dependent on a movie being either in a similar genre or having a similar pre-sale pattern as folks will buy tickets at different times during a pre-sale window thanks to a very long list of factors.   Add in that movies will have different promotional schedules during their pre-sales (review embargoes, TV ca

MODERATION:   Hi, everyone. It’s 6 o’clock in the morning. I have not gone to bed yet. And I am tired. And I know it’s going to be a very long weekend. Here is the new rule.   This thread is for numbers and data. Please post your theater updates. Please post your comparable data.

It is a bit of a shifting landscape for sure too though.  Regal, Cinemark, AMC are pushing reservations on their loyalty programs.  As I mentioned before AMC says now half of online presales are through their stubs app/website which has been growing fast

Sure, but movies come out every week and adjustments can be made.   As it is Fandango Pulse was only available on the IPad until earlier this year and was just posted now and then. We've had more consistent numbers over the last several months.

 

It's  another tool like checking MoiveTickets %, RT Want To See, IMDB rankings, Twitter, YT counts and Fandango screens/sellouts - but it's a pretty good one that's faster than checking seating charts on Fandango.

Absolutely.  Not knocking it at all. I definitely appreciate you posting it along with historical comparisons you have.

Not sure why more people aren't talking about Wonder! Pre-sales seem great, and a 20M+ opening would be the surprise of the month in a month full of surprises!

People were in the weekend thread:)...at least I was - I've been saying for a week Wonder is probably gonna pick up at least an extra 1/2 screen at one of my locals and should be a very nice premier opener.  And that was before I knew about the Scouts angle which should get that movie's marketing team a medal...

Wonder had great Trailer-Views, especially over at facebook, hinting, that it's doing very well with women, so it's not that there weren't hints, it might do well.

Wonder had the highest test screening scores in Lionsgate history, so an A+ Cinemascore is very possible. If it opens to $20M+, a $100M+ total is likely 

It Would Be Awesome if Wonder, Murder, Coco, DH2, Thor & JL all do north of $100m+

I’m thinking JL will not  preform like a sequel at all.

I sense massive legs coming.

Last night on The Good Doctor there was an ad for Wonder with audience reactions. WOM is going to be insane.
