It's super weird that 75% of All Saints' tickets are at the late showing  

Going to the movies during the day is a very un-Christian thing to do. Pray during the day, go to the movies at night.

Leap is selling nearly a quarter of what The Nut Job was, and school was in session when that came out as well. 

 

WEINSTEIN. THEIR IDIOCY.

I hope you get Tulip Fever next week.

It's only going to be in 600 theaters, so the chances of that happening are pretty slim, especially when Wind River is in 2k theaters and not here  This isn't like Christian flicks where studios can target areas with heavy church-going populations; what's the right area to release an infidelity drama starring Alicia Vikander and  ?

You gotta love how Harvey's trying to make the selling point of the movie "come see Alicia Vikander naked" even though she's already done nude scenes before (in Ex Machina and The Danish Girl). So behind the times, that Harvey.

BOREDOM POST: This is what I think my AMC's slate will be next weekend:

 

Biggest: THB

2nd Biggest: Wind River

Averages: Ingrid, Logan Lucky, Terminator, Leap/Annabelle, Cars/Dragon, All Saints/SMH

4th Smallest: Nut Job/Dark Tower

3rd Smallest: DM3/GT

2nd Smallest: Dunkirk/WW

Smallest: Emoji/BD

 

Tulip Fever likely won't hit the area, and I doubt Good Time will perform well enough this weekend to expand beyond 1k theaters.

If you are right, you will at least get to see Wind River and Ingrid Goes West.

Sunday hasn't sold anything yet.

 

@CJohn They HAVE to say "fuck it" and just put It in the biggest auditorium altogether instead of sharing it with Home Again (weekend tickets aren't up for that yet but what else will It share the screen with?). I'm scared they're going to underestimate this big time.

You're theater will be getting the smash hit Tulip Fever starring new blockbuster king Dane DeHaan, isn't it obvious?

I just remembered that awful and exploitative looking 9/11 movie is opening.  Two sub-$1K PTAs coming over two weeks, what a time to be alive.

Scratch that - 73/214 or 34% at the Dolby 7pm.

I think 9/11 is going to do around 4-5M on OW; we underestimated 47 Meters and Kidnap, and there's an audience for 9/11's kind of shit, especially releasing before the anniversary.

So the trailer/Spot for Happy Death Day is playing before Taylor Swift's new music video. That video has over 25 million views in like 16 hours. It's gonna hit like 40 million views in 24 hours. 

 

Whoever thought of that was genius especially with the tone of the music video having a death theme to it too. Will be interesting to see if it has an effect.

On facebook you can add a lot of option to your targeting (age/gender/interest), I imagine youtube also in some way, surely IP location is also used.
