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

Tele Law - If Tele is stanning for a movie, just know that the film's days become numbered after that.  If he stans for a movie, it will fail at the box office (only in 0.1% of cases does the opposite happen).  Vice versa.

If he dislikes a movie, it is probably really good. If he likes it, it is probably really bad.

Beautiful. 

It can only be called up in the 2nd weekend or 3rd weekend of a movie, depending on each case (example: if someone used the POPCORN LAW on the 2nd weekend of Pets it would look pretty dumb later).

Yes, but there are always the examples like Alien and It Comes at Night. Two movies with great RT scores that had good ODs but dived after that because of toxic WOM (which is reflected on the Audience Score on those sites).

 

Yeah, I think people are going a bit to crazy on the strength of RT for its predictive value.  I think reviews play a factor and can help or hurt a movie, but people are acting like it's the sole thing causing movies to sink or swim.

I know it's the middle of the night but the top 5 on Pulse just got more interesting.

 

1. DM3

2. BD

3. SMH

4. WW

5. DM3 3D

 

Certainly seems like a positive sign for SpiderMan.

meh... it i doubt it will show up again until next week.  Spur of the moment holidays should get people buying tickets of their phone for The House.  I am surprised an animated film for 3D made the top 5 though.  Shows traffic must be slow right now.
