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

I feel like we need to keep Endgame’s crazy pre-sales in context. It was the follow up to arguably the biggest movie cliffhanger since Empire Strikes Back. MCU films normally have a healthy five weeks of pre-sales; Endgame only had less than a month. Disney held those tickets to create a frenzy in the MCU fandom, so that there was a real sense of urgency on the first day.  I am not diminishing the staggering numbers that endgame did. I am just saying Disney played everyone a beautifully —  and I do not expect anything remotely like that until Avengers 5 The Rise of Skywalker.

And Frozen

 

TROS first day will be the second biggest this year by a good margin, but I doubt it will be anywhere near Endgame (sorry @Porthos).

Also, 13.6x Aladdin’s first 24 hours on Pulse. The CM and FFH comp bode well.

Not to put a downer on the comp, but Aladdin started on Endgame's first Monday when EG did nearly 37m all by itself.  Pulse would have been capping left and right AND EG would have (presumably) been sucking up a lot of the sets, even if Pulse is represenative.

Wasn't expecting it to be close to EG on first day. 👍

 

Number I'll be interested in is: x times Solo.  I expect it to be MUCH larger than Solo's first day.  If it isn't, that's not a great sign to say the least.

Second Biggest Of all time ...??? i think possible ..

Early pre-sales are accelerating every quarter it seems.

 

Star Wars fans are, rightfully, known for buying tickets early.
 

Combine the two facts and... Well I don't know if TFA's 24 hour mark is in danger but it should best TLJ's 24 hour mark by a decent amount.

Which is a fair assessment and one I had considered. The fact that it’s over CM is a bigger accomplishment. What I glean from all of the announcements, is the only films with bigger 1st 24hr sales are the 2 most recent Avengers films and the Disney Era SW films.

The thing that gives me pause with TLK is that we just had an animated film which beat I2's first day sales but didn't come close to sniffing I2's preview/OW.  

 

Don't misunderstand me, I'm not taking a single thing away from TLK's first day.  It was hella strong.  But I am wary of over-interpreting it is I guess what I am saying.

 

The other thing to point out is that while beating Captain Marvel's first day on Fandango is impressive, no matter how it's sliced, CM did start selling tickets nearly two months out (59 days out).  I think that probably deflated the opening a bit.

 

Still, as I said, TLK roared on its first day.  We'll see where it roams from here.
