I'm surprised at Thursday presales being an apparent weak point with JL mainly because I assume that's mainly the superfans.  I wouldn't have expected reduced turnout by that group by any significant amount...if that is what happens.

 

We don't know yet ...until it's actually out ..pre-sales is way ahead of the SS,WW and in line with BvS ....per DW .... but will see how much of that is for Thurs remains to be seen.

Yeah I'm not concluding anything.  I'll re-phrase - I'd be most surprised by a decline in that particular subset of the potential JL viewership. DC fans seem as numerous and fervent as ever to me as a whole.

 

I'll stop there as not the JL thread and meant it as a neutral comment about preview expectations

Justice League is a movie, that should have done $500m and more. Discussing it opening to $105m or $150m feels kind of pointless. 

And I don't think Snyder is to blame, it's Warner Bros.

If it opens to 100 and earn 500 will it be any different?

Marketing for JL has been pretty piss poor if you ask me, especially given WB's track record

[Hiccup23]

JL has now fallen behind Thor 3 at the same point  It is down by 20 tickets. Although over 892 seats (6 showings) are not available to be purchased online...something seems fishy. If they aren't open midday tomorrow, I am calling my theater. They are all at prime times and I think they are holding back sales. Again, we will see tomorrow!

 

Wonder also appears to be capping out presale wise. It will be interesting to see if walk-ups are strong.

 

Coco is capping out as well. My theater sort of expanded it but it is pretty pathetic compared to Cars 3. Although it is far ahead of Car 3's sales at the same point  It will need to top 171 tickets sold to surpass Car 3's total preview ticket sales. Seems reasonable and their actually is a lot working in favor of Coco (tickets are $5, there is no school Wednesday, and it is before a major family holiday.) 

 

Justice League	491	2,298	21.4%
Wonder	35	156	22.4%
Star	2	234	0.9%
Coco	64	312	20.5%

makes me wonder, assuming this was the theatrical trailer (without the "experience it again" part) how this movie would have fared at the box office had it been released in today's marketplace for the first time.

Coco I’m nervous about tbh. Marketing seems kind of wishy washy despite raves.

I still think legs are gonna be important for this film. Tracking seems off tbh, something is missing. Less than MoS???

They had nothing to work with. Snyder was worn out creatively after BvS. This is the first movie of his I've seen where I'm not impressed with the visuals.

Just saw it. I'm pretty sure this is virtually identical to the trailer for the 2012 re-release. I guess they wanted to save time when marketing this.

I am 100% seeing the Titanic re-release.

JL is picking up quickly now on MT it's close to 32% (35%), also I see an increase on pulse as well ....

The 3 theatre Im tracking also are filling up ...mostly the 6:00, 7:00, 7:30 are full (with exception of the two front rows ... I see the later shows 9 & 10 pm are also picking up as well.

only in 87 venues, even lesser than Forrest Gump's 337 theater for re-release  

[Rebeccas]

Previews at AMC Lincoln Square are super dead. The 8pm is like 1/3 full. The 10pm is totally empty.
