How many theatres is Man who Invented Xmas supposed to release in this weekend? Anyone know what the expansion plan is, and when it is?

Moana does not show up in the 2 Monday updates in the Web Archive, where Hacksaw Ridge was sitting at 3%. So I would say, that Coco is doing quite well, considering it's up against a much stronger weekend compared to 2016.

 

 

Yep but Pixar movies had a bigger fanbase and presales are usually stronger.

[grey ghost]

No last minute tracking numbers or predictions from the usual suspects?

 

Also any Moana and TGD comps?

[raegr]

Grats Coco, I hope you do very very well and attract families, have fun.

Moana showed up right in the morning's first update on Monday itself, not sure why Archive is not showing it

I don't think Cock has enough juice in it to inflate itself over those numbers.

We’ll see if it can penetrate past those numbers.

Huh, my theatre has Man Who Invented Christmas booked for the week. How limited can this be?

[Rumpot]

I see Coco significantly higher...the top animated last year had a high Hispanic viewership (SLOP was 24% and Dory was 26%).  This will be way higher than those.  To add it all up 126M for Dory came from Hispanic population alone.  This movie could and likely will outdo that. Hispanic viewership alone can be 150M+ for this movie.

Yeah, good point. Also, Hispanic audiences still seem more walk up friendly.

How many Latino kids are begging to see Coco?

Another weekend where no one knows exactly what to expect.

 

Anything between 40 and 70 m for the 5 day.

Based on how the movie is performing in Mexico probably a lot.

There's certainly no way to guarantee that.  In any case, SLOP not very different in numbsrs.  It seems likely to me this will see more adult family members watching with the kids as well.   I'm not making a prediction perse but saying one should be open to bigger numbers when this is geared towards a specific demographic which has been a large chunk of revenue for recent animated movies already.

My theater is getting Coco, Roman J. Israel, and Three Billboards this week. Coco is definitely getting the biggest auditorium (due to the theater only having half of its screens open).
