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 admit i chuckle a bit now when i see presales from an online seller ( this is not directed at IT, was just reminded. 

 

"X (genre variable)movie is now the (variable) selling movie in (variable years) on X movie ticket site ( which has a variable of how many tickets they generally sell and size compared to other movie sellers).

 

Just seems like every blockbuster now makes seller history in some form or another.😂

 

 

Yes i realize the newness of afocus on presales will do this but its still intriguing.

Anything other than IT 2 worth tracking this week? I'm not that invested in tracking IT since I won't have internet access during the release week (aka the important week) for that.

Basically no. I’m idly curious about the FFH extended cut, but not that much.

Not really sure what to use as a comp for this film, since as I understand it horror isn't that pre-sale heavy.  Maybe.  For now, gonna throw in a few recent ones along with JW2 and DP2 and hope for the best.

Bit surprised over how steep the drops were for the comps, though when looking into adjusted seats, it kind of makes sense. I guess it's not a total loss, because it does at least show a more comfortable range, but...I dunno, guess we'll just see what happens for the next week.

So whats the ballpark estimate for thursday /ow for IT right now? Any educated guesses?

I’m feeling like 9.5ish Thursday from the recent activity in this thread, which would be... underwhelming (probably sub 90 weekend).    

 

However! It’s still more than a week out, and we don’t have any ideal comps. Plenty of time to pick up or just perform differently.    

 

There is a funny conundrum I’ve had a couple of times where I think “oh, well, maybe It 2 will actually be less presales heavy than It 1 because it has less of an event vibe (warning: anecdotal).” And then I realize that if it actually does have less of an event vibe, that’s at least as consistent with “lower presales, lower debut” as “lower presales but somehow a roughly similar debut anyway.”
