For real; that's even less capacity than the smallest auditorium at my AMC  (although this is stadium seating, so it should be a bigger auditorium than that one)

Solo isn’t hot off of TFA like RO, I don’t think anyone was expecting it to be selling as well as it.

 

We’ll again likely have a frontloaded first day, and then quality will depend on legs for it going forward.

[MovieMan89]

I expect a 50% preview share of OD for Solo. Summer+SW is a brutal combination for preview frontloading.

Anyone else get the feeling that Breaking In could surprise this weekend?

Those showtimes for AWIT are due to the absolute dearth of family films in the marketplace right now. Rampage is the only film that could be considered a family film that outgrossed AWIT this weekend, despite AWIT being #18. Granted, it looks like Rampage was dropped which seems silly to me, unless Disney is offering close to 100% of grosses to theaters if they play it.

Family audience was still 17% of Avengers (that a 43.35 million OW from family audience, bigger than Rampage total), Marvel are still a bigger competition for family movie than almost everything outside the biggest Disney Animation type of stuff.

 

For a comparison, despicable me 3 a family movie monster opening weekend was 52m family audience box office, 20% higher than Infinity war.

 

Coco 51.83m

Boss Baby: 33.63m, 22% less than Avengers.
