SELLOUT NOTE:  Locally, AQP II was still under a capacity cap, which greatly inflated the number of sellouts as well as depressing the amount of seats available.

ADJUSTMENT NOTE: TSS (adj) is the amount of seats sold without DBOX seats counted, which started to be tracked with F9's track.

Was not expecting a fan rush today and did not get one (this particular CBM does not scream "fan rush", IMO).  AQP II comp is very likely misleading in the other direction, though.  

 

FWIW, three theaters haven't checked in yet, but they can often be late to the party so they should be here in a few days.

 

Probably would have liked to see a little more, but, eh.  Hard to compare a CBM without a fan rush (again IMO) to one that very much had one.  F9 comp might be a little more worrisome than the BW, aksually.  But even then, eh.  See what happens when buzz starts circulating.
 

NOTE::: For the record I nearly always do "Day x" comps until a few days into presales, as I don't particularly like to compare a movie that has had a week's worth of presales to one that has a day or two.  Doesn't matter for AQP II (which has the same number of days of presales) nor F9 (which has one more), but matters quite a bit for BW, which has five more days of presales.  Will probably normalize all comps at around the T-14 mark or so.  Maybe a couple of days earlier, as I like to play that by ear.

*sees discussion on last page*

 

That reminds me, I am NOT factoring in Ontario coming back online into any of my comps here.  Might start making commentary about it here and there during the track.  Mentally bump up comps a bit if one wants, though it probably doesn't matter this far out.

Ontario is 4-4.5% of NA.

Entire Canada used to be like high single % when we used to get weekly numbers during its OW. Of course it used to behave more like european markets and so was way more leggy(I remember Dark Knight opening to 10m and did over 50m). 

 

Still even if that was normal, it wont be this weekend. Its just reopening with capacity constraints.

Canada as a whole is like 8% of overall BO(at least during OW). Ontario would be what 3rd of that. it makes a difference(Lower MTC ratio) but what makes bigger difference is how walk ups go. Plus its reopening after a while. Would we see huge crowds asap or would it be more gradual. So for now I am not considering it in my projections. 

It also isn't helping that (as of yesterday haven't checked today) not all Toronto theatres for example even had showtimes for when I started Space Jam. I will get an update later today and see if more theatres are having showtimes. Im still getting used to having a puter so I'm really using Space Jam as kind of a practice. Hoping by weekend after this showtimes normalize for Toronto and Ontario.

ER2 leads Forever Purge 247-222 heading into the last update.   Afternoon update for FP got it to 402, but that was 7pm shows.  3pm for ER2 means earlier afternoon update and likely a lower total.  

 

Space Jam added a few more shows and has now passed my T-1 sales for F9 previews... 2185-2181. Yes, it helps that this is a full day of shows for Space Jam but impressive nevertheless.  

 

Roadrunner has 138 tickets sold for tonight in 16 shows.

why does Space Jam cost so much? WB is losing alot of money with this HBO max deal. 

FWIW the budget for the original from '96 was $80M, which made it one of the most expensive movies ever at the time.

Black Widow was so frontloaded during the weekend that even with the decent weekday holds it's going to take a huge second weekend drop. Space Jam is definitely favored to win the weekend. 

 

Not according to Deadline and Variety - they have a Black Widow win by $4-8M:)...

SJ2 trailers are so bad. How is this opening 25M range.

Nostalgia. People today have a bizarre attachment to anything and everything they watched 20 years ago that they will gluttonously watch anything that reminds them of something they saw as kids no matter how bad the new thing looks/the old thing was. A Good Burger remake could probably hit like 200M at this point.

Families aren't looking for Oscar-winning quality...cute comedy where "the good guys win" tends to be a winner:)...and if dad relives his own childhood, all the better:)...

 

It was also well-cast to draw for nostalgia and bball fans - put both them and families together, and you can have a good open (especially with a late ticket deal - I was gonna pass til that b/c I'm not blind, and I know that this may suck:)...

What is this really based on?
