Really depends on what you're looking for, but usually the most important takeaway for just a casual glance is the comp.  More on that in a bit.   But even that is highly dependent on a movie being either in a similar genre or having a similar pre-sale pattern as folks will buy tickets at different times during a pre-sale window thanks to a very long list of factors.   Add in that movies will have different promotional schedules during their pre-sales (review embargoes, TV ca

MODERATION:   Hi, everyone. It’s 6 o’clock in the morning. I have not gone to bed yet. And I am tired. And I know it’s going to be a very long weekend. Here is the new rule.   This thread is for numbers and data. Please post your theater updates. Please post your comparable data.

God Dune fans are fucking insufferable. Might just cancel my ticket and watch on HBO instead.

 

They were trolled repeatedly by quite a few posters who were deathriding Dune so I think its fair to gloat a bit.

Seems like they got replaced by Dune screenings. 

 

 

 

 

Pretty sure Dune is the better revenue split for the theater, if they can equally fill it.  I know WB wasn't taking more than 50% of the revenue for a day and date HBO Max release (and it might be lower)...and I'm sure Disney is back over 60% or more (65% was their normal take, right)?

 

As for tracking this weekend - the anime movie got 1.5 screens at both my Cinemarks and is the "most booked" of the new movies...so, if I was a betting person, it could eek out the "new movie win", although Dune also keeps 1.5-2 screens, and funny enough at one theater, it's all PLF with only 2 normal showings/day...

Not just here, on Twitter too. The standards of success were always low enough that a sequel was guaranteed but they're acting like it's made 200 OW or something. Then there's Film Twitter deciding "franchises are great now actually".

I know on this forum there were a number of posters who said anybody who thinks there will be a sequel are delusional.

Looking around it does appear that Dune is holding onto most PLF screens this weekend with the notable exception of AMC Dolby (which Soho is taking over completely and is crushing its regular showtimes in ticket sales). The only PLF screens My Hero Academia is getting are at theaters that have more than one giant screen, though one has to imagine it's in areas where it would do the best anyway.
