The Box Office Buzz and Tracking Thread: Electric Boogaloo

[Menor the Destroyer]

Cinemark tracking (FFH OD, as of early this morning)

 

Theaters: 226

Showings: 4711

Ticket sales: 207889 (estimating from sellouts)

Available: 635354

Estimated ATP: $10.36

Total estimated sales: $2,153,424

 

Looks like these theaters account for about 10% of market share going by Charlie's numbers.

You did that much tracking or got access?

[charlie Jatinder]

@Porthos, a request/suggestion, if you can change the format to "Ticket Sold" instead of "Ticket Left", will be great help. Thanks.

Web scraping program. I just run it in the background throughout the day.

No estimates until I have developed a base of comps. Right now my only comp is Endgame from one week before release.

If we (and by that I mean you 🤣) could do the same for AMC and Regal, then we’d really be cooking.

I may eventually do so if I have the time. No promises though. Right now I can't.

Loops through individual theaters. It's basically a large-scale automated version of the theater counts people do on here.

You're a God... or perhaps even an Asgardian!

Great stuff. So should be do able for any theater. There is a step where you have to add a ticket. Cinemark is + sign and some places its a drop down box.

Yeah it's just a question of taking the time to adjust the code for the way the chain's website is set up. Right now I don't have the time to do that but I may in the future.

Hell if we could get web scraping programs for all the major theater chains, it'd basically become real-time box office and pre-sale tracking.

Maybe.  More likely I'd add it as a separate field on the side.  

 

The main problem is, I now have a year plus worth of archived daily data that I would have to redo if I switched over and to be honest I really don't feel like doing that.
