Yeah I noticed that.  Pretty sure it was due to a refund pattern at one set of theaters but not another as seats got shuffled around.

Didn't feel like tracking it down.

It could have happened if the adj and exact were nearly identical, but a couple of refunds at the extra theaters in town as seats get shuffled between theaters.

Didn't feel like tracking it down.

 

Good stuff. It’s interesting to note that IW still managed to add over 60 shows to Thursday from this point. I wonder how many it’s feasibly possible for EG to add. Can it continue to match IW pace and sell another 5k seats? Fun to watch

I just pulled up my sheet from last night (thank you rev history) and the numbers are correct for last night so it's just one of those things.  I def don't feel like checking out all the showings to figure out how/why it happened tonight.

 

So consider this triple checked (as I had already double checked it before hitting Submit Reply).

Well, some of the theaters are putting in their Not!Endgame 6pm+ showings, so it's not like EG will be playing on all screens post 6pm.

 

But... It's funny you mention that.  Century Arden tonight added a 3:20a and 3:50a showing tonight for preview night.

 

That's... That's TFA territory.  Not even TLJ was that nutty here.

 

====

Still room for growth at several theaters, so will easily sail past 250 showings.  Wouldn't bet on 275 showings...

 

... But I wouldn't bet against it, either! 

 

======

 

As a side note, as my town gets more and more nutty with showtimes, the more worried I get about the comp.  Just the sheer amount of more showings locally than IW makes me worry that I might overestimate it locally no matter what I do in the end to try to account for it.

 

...

 

Then again, looks like EVERY place that can (i.e. not small or mid sized theaters) are trying to cram as many showings as they can, so...

RANK	PERCENT	TICKETS	MOVIE

Basically its almost 50% ahead of Shazam on Fandango but barely matched on MT. Pre-sales would be not much less than Shazam Friday number.
