Bloodshot has a 42 Million budget;Sony considerably scaled down it's ambitions for this film.

Does Diesel have that big of a OS following?

Some form of a big one for sure:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_most-followed_Instagram_accounts, he has one of the biggest social media footprint in the world, with one of the biggest WW/dom ratio of all actors:

Some movies like Last Witch Hunter, the latest xXx doing like 5 to 8 times their domestic in WW total.

 

How much it will translate for this title, I do not know, but I would expect again a high to very high % of the total being from OS.

Unfortunately for the film his biggest O/S numbers come from Asia - in particular China (courtesy of the F&F franchise)

Cineplex "buy advance tickets for invisible Man"

Okay!

 

"Invisible not showing in X theatre on feb 27" 

Okay feb 28

 

"Invisible Man not showing..."

This happens to me all the time with Cineplex, and it drives me nuts!!

I go into the App, it says "buy tickets now for X film", and then there are no showtimes available anywhere for it. 

The worst was in December when they started advertising "buy tickets now" for Bombshell *weeks* before the tickets were actually available to purchase. 

 

Don't know who is running the show there, but someone needs to get their shit together.

That sounds about right for both March 13 openers tbh. Bloodshot looks like another non-F&F Diesel dud, while I don't think the surprise late addition to the schedule is gonna matter much for The Hunt (honestly it feels like the controversy happened ages ago even though it was just a few months).

0.350 previews would lead to a 4-5m ow? Gretel preview to ow multi (12.95x) would give it 4.5 ow while Turning (16.35x) gives 5.7 but this is a sequel.

 

Don't wanna sound panicky but in the worst-case we could be looking at under 10 dom.

I would have imagine good south america as well, but yes a diesel movie right now is certainly bad timing.

Gretel is Super Bowl deflated. Black Christmas was able to do 4.2 off just 230k, for 18.4x   
 

My guess is 300x15 or so. Still no critic or audience RT 😂

Brahms: Boys II (T-1)

MTC1 Prev - overall 503 shows 1670/67379 21651.14 16671.93

MTC2 Prev - overall 524 shows 698/65925 8060.90 5548.21

MTC1 OD - overall 1409 shows 1870/188907 24197.04 19095.99

MTC2 OD - overall 1261 shows 1663/171369 16510.02 12527.53

 

Dire numbers. sub 0.5m previews and single digit OW I would say. 

Brahms: Boys II 

Previews Final

MTC1 - overall 533 shows 7484/70614 94528.79 72336.73

MTC2 - overall 522 shows 6083/65711 68794.93 47604.67

 

Very good walkups. At MTC2 almost 90% of ticket sales happened today and tripled the number at 3PM PST. I would say 0.4m previews. 

 

I had checked OD PS couple of hours ago. 

MTC1 - overall 1385 shows 3738/186518 47315.79 37336.89

MTC2 - overall 1258 shows 3082/171129 31437.60 23720.28

 

Very poor PS. Though with good walk ups like today it could hit 2-2.5m OD including previews. 5-6m OW.

One thing is weird about MTC2 Prev numbers. i must have posted OD BO instead of Previews BO. Anyway previews look weak. It should Triple or do slightly more and that should be good for 0.6-0.7m. But OD PS is promising. If that is doubled or so it should have good OW.

MTC2 - overall 881 shows 14035/122716 161085.89 112795.03

 

Good walkups again. it almost did dolittle numbers on MTC1 while finished 11% behind on MTC2. I am thinking 0.9m previews. 

 

MTC1 OD - overall 2099 shows 21336/350588 292847.45 245281.12 post 6PM 1050 shows 11563/174555 176349.81 143367.31

Awesome final day of PS sales. OD PS looks like 1.7-2m by the time shows start tomorrow. I wonder if it can hit 6m friday and increase by 50% on saturday. I would say 18m OW for now.  But wont rule out 20m.

This has a very small chance of actually coming first this weekend.

I will look at it tomorrow. But I dont expect real acceleration until final week. Until then there will some demand for advance shows.

Onward

Advance/Marathon Shows(T-8)

MTC1 - overall 110 shows 2771/17628 

MTC2 - overall 104 shows 3721/11669 36939.75 32284.25

 

Not sure the advance screening will make a big dent. Probably will do 0.5m or so. 

 

 

MTC1 Prev - overall 1115 shows 4756/229214 86698.84 72495.69

MTC2 Prev - overall 1123 shows 1908/192893 24569.14 17480.08

MTC1 OD - overall 2083 shows 2885/436131 51155.73 43531.30

MTC2 OD - overall 2458 shows 3134/441362 36434.56 29110.42

 

Will not see these numbers are great but it has another 13 days to go. It could go either way at this point.
