If you haven't already heard, Century Aurora XD will not be showing Joker. For IT 2, that theater sold almost 13% of the tickets out of the 9 theaters. So, it messes things up a bit. I won't be able to adjust for that theater until the last couple days because I only recently started saving individual theater counts. But I'll continue to do regular comps, and hopefully my other nearby theaters will pick up some of that loss. Just take them with a grain of salt. 

 

IT 2 comp: 5.13M

Adjusted Lion King comp: 5.82M

 

For TLK, I didn't track the Aurora theater at this point. So the comp is probably a better look at what it's looking like in Denver right now.

These Joker sales seem not impressive.

The problem with the comps is that, presumably, they're being done versus the entire pre-sale run of those movies to date.  A movie that's been on sale for three days simply isn't going to be comparable to a movie that had pre-sales for weeks on end.  That Joker  is even pulling those sorts of numbers is pretty decent.

 

Like, take Sacto last night:

Joker sold twice as many tickets on its 9 days out than It 2 did.  And that's because it was only the second day of sales for it, while It 2 already had 26 days of sales under its belt.

 

The comp against DP2 tells a similar story:

PRE-SALES NOTE: Deadpool 2 had 30 days of pre-sales, while Joker had 11.

ADJUSTMENT NOTE: Joker (adj) is the ticket data at the same theaters I had tracking info for Deadpool 2.

Here Joker sold around 20% more tickets than DP2 did on their respective 9 days out.  And, again, that's because DP2 had already been on sale for 21 days.

 

As we get closer to release, those movies will hit their own "ramp ups", of course, so Joker has to keep making up ground before next Monday hits. 

 

But I wouldn't draw too many conclusions on "great/terrible" until at least this Sunday. Such is the problem with a severely truncated pre-sale window.

Works out about 8 percent sold. This is going to be wom and walkup i think up here. Only reason it doesnt make same amount as pt 1 would be people who werent fans of part 1 not showing.

 

Also 3 hour length (plus movie ads and trailers could push this to a 3 and almost 3 and ahalf hour total in theatre time

I think this is the best thing I can do for comps atm, This is @Tinalera data from IT2 the day before previews.  The numbers below are from joker after 3 days of Presales so far, using only the same theatres. Total tickets only as joker has more showtimes at certain theatres and IT2 had more at others. 

 

Scotiabank theatre

 

444 total tickets sold so far 

 

 

Don mills VIP

 

64 total tickets sold so far 

 

 

Yorkdale 

 

57 total tickets sold 

 

 

Eglinton town

 

31 total tickets sold 

 

 

Yonge and Eglinton

 

145 total tickets sold 

 

 

Queensway

 

220 total tickets sold 

 

 

Yonge and Dundas 

 

203 total tickets sold 

 

 

 

1164 total tickets sold so far.

 

 

 

Now, Scotiabank theatre is one of our big ones downtown so the fact that it didn’t have any times for IT2 is very strange. I suspect that that’s the reason presales were so big at the Yonge and Dundas location cause Scotiabank didn’t have the presales up, but even if we were to add in let’s say 500 tickets for Scotiabank for IT2 that would only take the total to 1411 total tickets the day before previews. I think Scotiabank would be a bit higher but I don’t want to go much more as I think Yonge and Dundas was inflated due to the other theatre not having tickets on sale. 

 

I don’t know what any of this means but I figured it would be fun to just look and compare.

Joker, Day 3, Salt Lake City, Sugarhouse Cinemark, 6 preview night screenings.

 

59/507 11.6%

 

Tickets sold today- ZERO

 

Really weird action, or I guess I should say, non-action, in SLC over the past 24 hours. Not a single ticket sold according to the Cinemark website, which makes me think that there's a glitch in the online ticketing app, especially since nobody else's reports are showing such a catastrophic drop. Will hopefully have something better to share tomorrow night.

I just checked on Fandango and came up with 59 tickets as well.  Since it is only one theater, could be a blip/one of those things.  Any individual theater could over or underperform on any given day, after all.

 

Could also be that folks in that area of town aren't that interested in the flick.  Be interesting to see what happens in the next couple of days, I agree.

This looks, well, not that promising. Having 80 more shows it barely outsold DP2. DC has a previews loaded audience than Marvel (or used to be before Infinity War). Still, not impressed. Though I am surprised with you not using first 3-5 days comp at this stage wiith other CBMs. From Sunday perhaps you can start T-x days comp.

It’s quite the hassle.    

 

The Day 3 comps don’t work well — Joker is only 8 days from previews, which inflates the Day 3 vs any comp we’ve got.       

 

T-08 comps don’t work well either — Joker has only had 3 days to accumulate sales, so it’s deflated vs any Day-08 comp we’ve got.     

 

Starting Sat/Sun/Mon-ish the days before comps should be pretty decent.

Yes, I know.  That's why I made disclaimers on the first day and an lol-disclaimer on that one.

I don't have those days for DP2 (I only started tracking it a couple of weeks in).

 

If I compared it to the second day of It 2, it'd be: 30.96m.

 

...


There's reason why I ain't using that comp. ;)

 

(more later, have to take care of something)

As @Thanos Legion said, having 11 days of pre-sales pretty much renders ALL comps useless.  Even a day two comp against other CBMs is pretty useless as right now we're starting to get into the "oh, yeah, the flick is coming out next week; better buy my tickets" mini-ramp up.

 

Also, 'round about this time, some films start having their embargos lift, either social or review.  That in turn spikes those days (or not) before depressing a little until the real surge starts next week.

 

By rights, I shouldn't have ANY comps.  But if I do that, folks will still ask for them. So, rock and hard place.

 

Best I can do is provide data and give context for them and let folks make their own conclusions.

 

I do think it's not exploding so the data is telling us something.  But it doesn't appear to be cratering, either. But, then again, week plus away.

 

===

 

Let me put this in context.  Here is the sale pattern for JW:FK (which 'only' had 23 days of pre-sales):

 

Fallen Kingdom		
T-22:	0	595
T-21:	0	180
T-20:	0	96
T-19:	0	87
T-18:	0	97
T-17:	0	96
T-16:	0	106
T-15:	0	92
T-14:	0	59
T-13:	0	77
T-12:	0	45
T-11:	0	76
T-10:	0	60
T-9:	0	109
T-8:	0	94
T-7:	0	122
T-6:	0	95
T-5:	0	124
T-4:	0	220
T-3:	0	443
T-2:	0	551
T-1:	0	768
T-0.5:	0	761
T-0:	0	1275

Strong first day, pretty strong second day, then settles into a downward slope before ramping back up... right around the T-9 date.  Which is, sadly, right where Joker is.

 

So even something like JW:FK can't be used as a comp.  The only other films I tracked at even 21 days of pre-sales were Solo and KotM.  Each of those presents... unique problems when it comes to pre-sale analysis, to put it mildly.

 

Sadly, just gonna have to make the best of bad situations and adjust on the fly until the weekend.  By then things should have normalized enough to be able to judge things better.  But even then, Joker might, and I do stress might, have a stronger week of sales, simply because folks hadn't had the chance to remember to buy tickets yet.
