You talking about this?  http://digitalcinema.bydeluxe.com  (iirc, they used to list trailers attached to movies under a pdf called "TrailMix")

This and https://cinema.dcinema.com/default.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2f are the two sites; they typically upload at the same time. The TrailerMixes stopped back in November after how popular they became to the general public; maybe we were a critical reason why

Is adding the shows for those Oscar BP nominees instantly on Tuesday prohibited?

If the theater already has them and wants extra shows, they can always add them in if they have another drive. New theaters have to wait for the weekend because of contracts.

Any DW updates on Black Panther? @grim22

Haven’t heard from him in a while. He’s probably busy with his move to a new location and promotion. We should get updates on week of release or so.

[WrathOfHan]

Pulse:
 

1. The Post

2. Showman

3. Jumanji

4. Thieves

5. 12 Strong

Maze Runner was on Pulse earlier and now fell out

Jumanji at $14.7m, gives it 8th best 6th weekend. Heading for $350m+

 

$21m for MR3, not disastrous, but nothing to praise that much.

If that mean an 55-60m run, pretty much, that movie is an oversea affair a lot, probably more than enough DBO here and under the special circumstance would probably be in the expectation of loosing around 30% of business, but nothing specially good either.

Meanwhile, Hostiles expands nationwide and hopes to carve out an audience among adults. The studio is bullish with projections north of $12 million for the Christian Bale/Scott Cooper western,

IN ENTERTAINMENT STUDIOS WE TRUST

[WrathOfHan]

5 minutes of Pulse watching:

 

41 Black Panther

29 Maze Runner

18 Hostiles

13 Fifty Shades

 

Entertainment Studios might not be bullshitting that tracking number

That would be nuts, it would need to keep an exceptional 90% of is last weekend PTA, that would put it at:

2,850 * 4,876 * .9 = 12.5m

 

Keeping 90% of your average, while gaining 2,295% in theater count and facing Oscar nominated movies while having been shun for what look like an Academy movie.....

Wow, Maze Runner 3 presales are SHIT right now if it can't even show up 1st on Pulse on Wednesday.

It took Insidious a while to show up on Pulse/MT, but that was horror and faced much bigger competition. Maze Runner has zero reason not to be up on either right now IMO

It was there earlier, if not anymore 

 

 

while I don't expect it to do

good domestically but I remember Black Mass outselling Scorch Trials on online ticketing yet Scorch ended up doing decently
