I assume you mean stand Friday minus previews.  That would mean just $8.28m and just a 104% jump.

 

If not it would be $11.8m which would be a fantastic Friday jump of 190%+

I only look at number minus previews. This is not exact but a ballpark estimate. Actual number I post around 8PM estimate. Plus this is not box office prediction but where its going to end up at MTC relative to last friday. 

 

Plus do we have thursday number for Shang Chi?

Forbes said $4.05m but that could change

[exomassey]

Around 8.3m is ok but I think it puts up the possibility of going just under 30m.

 

Gonna need a big Saturday bump.

Forbes would have got the number from studio. Of course it could be estimate but actuals will be within 100K or so. So Shang Chi did slightly better than what MTC indicated. I would say that is good news.

@Deep Wang any tibit ? 👀

[Menor the Destroyer]

I think 55% drop is feasible from that morning number and extrapolating the pace. Too early to tell though.

Nah, I'm still out of the game.  It just so happened that I went to see Shang-Chi and talked to my old boss and he was like, "I'll still hook you up whenever, just gotta ask."  So when he gave me those other numbers they were just internal projections, not presales.  I forgot that's what I did all those years ago, lol.  Also, they only ever tracked presales before release, nothing after, so I wouldn't have anything on SC in terms of hard sales for the upcoming weekend.

Well @charlie Jatinder extrapolated to 3.8. I said MTC could have lower share and hoped it hit 4m. It finished mid way between our projections :-) Let us see how things go today. I am thinking increase between 120-130%. So around 8.6-9m. We will know at 8PM.

I think MTC share may drop further and can push it a bit higher. We'll see.

I don't know how many I have to "see" your  "we'll see" in a day

 

@Menor Apology, I thought you were john2000 because of "we'll see" endnote.

Last weekend walkups are excellent.

 

I would be happy with around 9M Friday, but after last weekend i'll wait because walkups can push it higher to 10M or so.

Keep in mind, I counted the second day of Shang-Chi at like 11PM. So it had the benefit of all the evening buyers for day 2, which is why the comp went down.

No preview numbers for Malignant? Or WB still aren't doing those? I was quite sure TSS had them.
