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

I think your data has greater sample than pulse. That said I2 had 79k tickets for friday and Toy Story is already at 52492. It should come close to 90% of I2 true friday. That would mean 47m true friday.

I don't see it but man I would be happy with $47 true Friday. I predicted 60/50/40 for a $150M OW going into this.

Looks like Aladdin was the local comp after all. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

At least I might have a relaible set of comps when I suspect a film is over-performing locally.

Was the timer at this Pulse tracking page (http://akvalley.pythonanywhere.com/static/Fandango_track.txt) adjusted for daylight savings time? It's off by one hour (Central time).

The person behind the account is based in the Central Time Zone, so it's set on Central Time all year round.

Do you know why Dory and I2's Sat numbers barely rose from true Fri? I would have thought them being family films, it will rise even more.

Its heart of summer when schools are off. Kids movie have weak increases and during OW tend to almost stay flat. With early previews at least we have started to see some increases minus previews.

Here is Incredibles 2's weekend breakdown on Pulse:

 

Thu 64,591 ($18.5m previews)

Fri 105,877 ($52.8m)

Sat 85.971  ($58.9m)

Sun 76,605 ($52.5m)

 

And Toy Story 4's:

 

Thu 39,099 ($12m previews)

Fri

Sat

Sun

 

Based on Pulse tracking, I am projecting 69,000 for TS4's Friday.

Using the Thursday TS4-to-I2 ratio would give $37.2m true Friday and $49.2m Friday + previews for TS4.

55,291 as of now .... can we touch 90K ???

Don't forget that the current maximum on Pulse is 96k (4000 x 24).  The capping situation is something to keep in mind here.

 

Forgot Menor was talking about the daily and not the 24hr tracker.  Never mind the comment here.

Pulse is useful but since we have realtime comscore data, that should be more useful to track.

 

TS4 could have OW as low as 130m or go as high as 150m. I think its all great though below expectations after crazy early tracking(even BOP increased OW to 160m).

A sub-$38M Friday would be devastating, honestly.
