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

More like a 31% difference vs a 42% difference  in that DP is doing 68.76% v 58% of AEG's sales.

 

MT's rolling 24 hour would indicate AEG is playing stronger at night which makes sense

Guess it’s time for me to ask a noob question. Are there two Godzilla numbers because one is regular 2d and one is IMAX?

Yep Fandango divides IMAX and 3D numbers from 2D/Regular numbers

Yep.  

 

To explain a bit more, Fandango itself will split movies in 2D, 3D, IMAX, and Special Event categories. That also means a Fan Event IMAX 2D showing and a Fan Event IMAX 3D showing and a Fan Event 2D showing would all appear separately (as would a Fan Event 3D showing).

 

I don't know how exactly akvalley's tracker does it (by some sort of embedded code within Fandango or via some sort of automatic concentrator via spreadsheet formula), but his tracker will collect the various different categories into one or two groups (or three in the case of special events).  Near as I can tell, it's usually 2D/3D getting put into one category and all the IMAXs put into another.  But occasionally I've seen different groupings.

 

Either way, his tracker will take the up to at times six or seven different entires and make it two or three.  Usually 2D/3D in one group, all IMAXes in another, and whatever Special Event might be going on.

My theater has added Brightburn to the Memorial Day weekend schedule for one of the smallest auditoriums all day except for the last show, which is in a medium-sized one. Such confidence.

Tbh Brightburn's going to flop.

Aye, I've also heard from two people that the movie is not good at all and a waste of the premise. I thought this could be something that broke out, but it's really feeling like it'll be DOA.

First count of today, only Thursdays-

Godzilla: KoTM-64 (+8), 8 screenings (3 IMAX, 3 3D, 2 Regular), Second Day

Aladdin-72 (-9), 7 screenings (2 IMAX, 2 3D, 2 Regular+Fan Screening)

John Wick-111 (+2), 4 screenings (2 IMAX, 2 Regular) Final week

 

What the fuck happened to Aladdin? I know I didn't miscount because I distinctly remember last night it having way more seats then what I counted today. Did like some bad reactions drop or something? Did people mistakenly buy Aladdin tickets instead of Godzilla tickets? I'm honestly confused as hell.

Final count of today, only Thursdays-

Godzilla: KoTM-66 (+10), 8 screenings (3 IMAX, 3 3D, 2 Regular) Second Day

Aladdin-72, 7 screenings (2 IMAX, 2 3D, 2 Regular+Fan Screening)

John Wick-115 (+5), 4 screenings (2 IMAX, 2 Regular) Final week

 

Oof bad day for Aladdin. Good days for KoTM and John Wick though. In total today Godzilla sold 10 tickets, John Wick sold 5 tickets, and Aladdin lost 9 and didn't sell any.

We're about to see some early summer dumps over the next few weeks between Brightburn and Poms flopping this weekend. The Sun is Also a Star also feels DOA next weekend as well (could the TV spots and title for that movie be any more vague?).

FFH midnight showings-

FFH-56 (+2), 3 screenings (1 IMAX, 1 3D, 1 Regular)

 

Slowly but surely these keep selling. Honestly insane to see that the MCU fanbase is this strong.

FFH midnight showings-

FFH-56, 3 screenings (1 IMAX, 1 3D, 1 Regular)

 

Nothing new today.

It's really, really bad. Like a low-rent, Eli Roth version of Chronicle that doesn't even satirize Man of Steel but flat-out rip off its imagery without any commentary on it. And I thought the trailers were pretty good.
