How various Thursday presales look at my theater:

 

Wonder Woman:

 

7:00: 74/124

7:00 3D: 22/78

8:00 3D: 10/78

9:00: 24/78

 

Cars 3: 2/113

 

Captain Underpants, The Mummy, Megan Leavey, All Eyez on Me, Rough Night, and Spider-Man Homecoming have sold nothing for their previews. WW is selling well into the weekend, and CU has some seats sold on Friday.

Mummy tracking:

 

Early tracking suggests the Alex Kurtzman-directed film may debut in the low $40 million range in North America — a modest opening salvo for what is hoped to be a series that could someday rival DC and Marvel.

Behind the scenes, Universal execs are said to be especially concerned about Mummy, even though insiders say a $40 million bow (plus a strong overseas haul) would be enough to move forward with the universe as planned.

@EmpireCity last night on The Americans, Fox aired an ad for My Cousin Rachel that said it'll be "in theaters everywhere" next week. Any word on how wide it's going?

It's opening at a couple of arthouse theaters near me next weekend.

Semi-wide is the impression I get.  600+ theaters.

Yeah, I don't see it going overly wide when the following weekend has four wide releases. Any word on 47 Meters TC?

[DAJK]

The 175M+ global debut forecasted by Deadline is going down. 250M globally if not slightly more IMO

I still haven't seen a single review, word of mouth or trade screening impression from My Cousin Rachel which makes me think it might be something they are trying to hide.  

 

47 Meters is going to push for something like 1,500+

I think it would have to significantly overperform tracking in the US for that to happen since it's not opening day and date almost everywhere like the usual WB film.

I feel like low 40's is what should be expected for the film. The last Mummy film made 40.5M opening weekend or 49.8M when adjusted for inflation. This Mummy will fall somewhere within that range and should end with what Mummy 3 made when adjusted for inflation (126-127M).

It will debut UNDER 40M. Quote me on this. 35M if it's lucky.   and have shitty legs...UNDER 100M is assured.

[Plain Old Tele]

40m would be fine for MUMMY.

Probably. However, it might not be enough to support the Cinematic Universe they are trying to jumpstart (especially if it ends up getting the kind of reviews that most are expecting of it now).

Lmao, what? Universal needs to put their expectations in check if they think that the series is coming close to the DCEU / MCU.
