The Box Office Buzz and Tracking Thread: Electric Boogaloo

[JonathanLB]

It’s the same here, my 3 / 6 Double Feature in IMAX is sold out of only the good seats but that means it’s probably 60-65% full. There are plenty of crap seats left lol

Does anyone have the link of the old tracking thread?

Oh right it would of been cool to see how big force awakens was on Pulse and MT at the time

5:00 Ferdinand is finishing with 5/63. This is one fewer ticket than The Star sold for its 5:00 showing  7:30 is still at 8 tickets. The Star finished with 15 tickets total, so when all's said and done it should be ahead. Should.

Ferdinand only needs to open with 17M or so and it should do 100M DOM.

[SoSaysI]

I just did a 1 minute count rather than 5 since I didn't want to keep counting but the one minute I counted had about 360 TLJ sets of tickets.

Still waiting for Fox, Lionsgate, and Sony to release their TCs. 

Those are some fugly losses for Thor and Bad Moms. Doctor Strange lost less and was in more theaters than Thor when RO opened.

Coco is losing more theaters than Moana did; it's definitely dropping a minimum of 40% this weekend with Ferdinand as direct competition.

Pretty bad drops for JL, DH2, and Lady Bird as well.

The Disaster Artist couldn't really gain more theaters, which isn't surprising. A24 is going to have to wait until January to try their luck at a wider release.

That would explain why it was slowing down when I was trying to make my last sellout report.

It's huge but if we just go by Fandango comparisons it doesn't look to hit the $40m preview range.  More like $32-35m

 

But it's had such high pre-sales before today so who the fuck knows.

Any idea what the theater increase will be for Shape of Water?

Are you kidding? There’s no way previews are as low as $32M. That would be terrible and frankly unbelievable. Our 4 am IMAX has more than 50 tickets sold! Everything else is sold out or within a few rows of sellout already. It can’t get much bigger than selling out every screening from 6 pm to midnight.
