How? 

I’m trying to find the rest of the ticket comparisons from DW as I don’t know if it’s good or bad.

good for spiderman ?

Yep, a great start. Afaik Black Panther which had crazy presales did 2 million from Wang's chain in the first 3 days, CM 1.8.

Scratch that, I jumped the gun. It’s solid, as I think Coco was at 1M the same point in time.

Wick is the one you send to kill the Boogeyman, Pokemon, and Thanos.

Those numbers for FFH are also really good seeing how far out it is and it's only doing classic-style Midnight showings, no 6-11 showings.

Aquaman did 2M 

MPR did 1.5 

are others one off the top of my head from the Monday before release (MPR was a Wednesday release though and of course Aqauman had the holidays so its presales were more spread out.

Is Coco really a great comparison though? Pokemon has a dedicated fanbase, and Coco had superior reviews/WOM which drives walkups. 

[Nova]

Cocco was at 1M for its final number.

RIP Pokémon. It was good while it lasted. 50M OW is the ceiling at this point.

[Mulder]

Pretty safe to say DP at least is opening to 60+ at this point imo.

The duality of BOT on display right here.

Did we ever get a Shazam number from DW? Feel like that's the best comp for Pika.

No I don't believe we did 

[Minnale101]

Pokémon has good reviews from the audience that’s what matters most

 

Japan likes the movie only country that’s it released so far 

 

I think after Thursday night previews. Movie will explode 

[Porthos]

Coco was a Thanksgiving Wednesday release, it should be noted.  Not sure how that would play into pre-sales though.

Ah rip, would've been useful especially with Pulse's recent issues. But from what I can see DP seems to be tracking a bit above Shazam on Pulse and MT, so 60+ looks pretty good so far.

For the Aquaman comp, would the holiday making PS more spread out imply that the PS-OW multiplier would be smaller for Aquaman compared to most movies? Like the OW would be smaller then the PS would expect?

[cdsacken]

Coco was also 97% rt and fully animated.

Yea since people buy tickets for days besides the weekend (like Christmas for example) presales are more spread out for movies hence why you get relatively smaller OW but much better legs during that time.

I mean I don't think Coco is a good comp anyways but I just wanted to point out that its final number was 1M. 

 

I think the presales for Pikachu are solid imo but they still don't tell me anything simply because I still have no idea how its going to play out ie more family friendly or front loaded. Depending on how it plays out, the weekend could go one of two which ways for it.
