Posted by Porthos,

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. And please talk about that comparable data here.    If you wish to do a deep dive on why you think that data might or might not suck, then take it to the respective thread of the movie in ques

Huh.... I mean locally it's probably needed since the Regals are lagging far behind the other theaters on the number of showings they have for EG..... but if it is true well 300mil could be the floor.

It was 1 and 2 :hahaha:  

17:00 Pacific 4/22/19 (End of Easter Monday) 

  


1	57.9%	Avengers: Endgame
2	7.2%	The Curse of La Llorona (17.1 adj)
3	6.2%	Shazam! (14.7 adj)
4	5.1%	Captain Marvel (12.1 adj)
5	4.3%	Breakthrough  (10.2 adj)

 

Jeez, we burned through a lot of pages in the last 24 hours guys. Anyway, looks like Endgame is selling a couple of tickets.     

 

CM/S at 82%   

 

Edit: Returning the adjusted (% of non-Endgame sales) figure so you can get a more reasonable picture of how holdovers are moving.

MT

 

Endgame - 55%

La Llorona - 7.3%              (16.2 adj) 

CM - 5.9%                         (13.1 adj)

Jersey (Telugu) - 5.4%     (12 adj)

Shazam! - 4.9%                 (10.9 adj)

Well we have a surprise entrant to the top 5 here (surprising to me at least, I know foreign movies sometimes overindex on MT but I don’t usually know what days they’ll show up). Endgame stays about flat, which is a bit of a bummer but no cause for alarm when the Monday presales were so huge and daily BO will probably be ~flat from yesterday.     

 

CM/S ratio from 82% to 120%, very curious how Tues actuals will go (and Wed, and Thurs...). CM’s Endgame boost would be the most exciting phenomenon of April to me if it weren’t for, y’know...

O-M-G!!!! 

 

Remember how I said the local drive-in wasn't having a double feature of Captain Marvel and Endgame?

 

Well they didn't have the FSS schedule up yet.  Turns out there WILL be a Double Feature for Endgame.

 

...

 

IT'S BEING PAIRED WITH DUMBO!!!!!!:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Okay, to be fair, as I check Sunday, they will have a Double Feature of CM/EG alongside Dumbo/EG.  I just find it hi-lair-i-ous that Dumbo of all films was getting the double feature treatment.

Yep. For a 14-screen Regal near me, the only movies with showtimes throughout the day are Endgame, Llorona, Breakthrough, Kalank, Shazam, and Captain Marvel, with one or two showtimes for Penguins, After, Missing Link, Dumbo and Us in the morning and afternoon. The 22-screener has Endgame throughout the day, as well as Llorona, Breakthrough, Penguins, Little, Shazam, Dumbo, Us, and Captain Marvel. After, Hellboy, Missing Link, Pet Sematary, Unplanned, and Five Feet Apart only have one showtime in the early morning.

 

So yeah, when it comes to people who can't get into Endgame this weekend, don't be surprised if especially Shazam and Captain Marvel reap some of the benefits.

True or not. 300 is floor.

 

You beat a Star Wars film by $70mn in pre-sale and won't beat FSS by $53mn?

More importantly than the record breaking number of theaters EG is opening in I wonder how harsh the drops will be for others.

Looking at IW's OW, A Quiet Place and I Feel Pretty managed to drop sub-50%, while everything else fared poorly. AQP probably got boosted by WOM, as well as IW sellouts, while I Feel Pretty was counterprogramming. In that respect, Shazam and Breakthrough should hold similarly

 

And of course, Captain Marvel will get a boost from sellouts and double features. Dumbo too.

Running really behind on my daily report, but just got done compiling the FSS schedule for EG showings.

 

Fri:   522 showings [IW 391 FINAL |  EG exact: 428]

Sat:  518 showings [IW 389 FINAL | EG exact: 428]

Sun: 476 showings [IW 370 FINAL | EG exact: 393]

(EG exact being ONLY the exact same theaters in town)

 

It... It might still go up. 😬

My local Regal just opened the 8:20pm 2D when I wasn't looking some time Tues late night - it's already sold 151 out of 246 seat. 

 

They have two more late shaded ones yet to open on Thur  for a total of 22 showings.  (AIW ended with 20) They have room to add more since the latest so far is 1am.  They just added 7 more showings to Fri & Sat for a current total of 40 with Sun at 37.

 

So much counting....

My Regal is pulling Penguins this weekend.  It hasn’t even been out for 2 weeks!

I doubt Disney cares all that much since they've already decided future nature docs will go straight to Disney+
