Posted by Porthos,

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. And please talk about that comparable data here.    If you wish to do a deep dive on why you think that data might or might not suck, then take it to the respective thread of the movie in ques

Oh, I misinterpreted some of your statements in various Numbers threads then when people were accusing you of hating TLJ. I was under the impression that you at least liked the film but still found the run of it mockworthy.

 

Never mind then. :)

I corrected people for calling me a hater when I was being realistic about the WOM and legs if that's what you're referring to.

 

But yes, it has been an easy target to mock given what was said about it that first week or so and how those of us who saw the signs were mocked.

No I was talking about people saying things to you like like "You hated both Rogue One and The Last Jedi so of course you're saying that"  and you responding with things like "only one of those things is true".

 

Stuff like that.  Just misread your posts, is all. :)

 

Like I said in my edit though, now your apparent glee the last few weeks is a tad more understandable to me.  Even if I don't share it.  At all. ;)

Well, like I said I don't hate it as a whole just parts that I definitely do. Thought I made it pretty obvious I had big issues with some of it. But it's not AOTC or those first 2/3 of RO though.

Just didn't see those posts, is all. :)  Never went back to read the first twenty pages of the Spoiler thread and I'm a haphazard readers of the various numbers threads, so I never saw those posts in question.  I just happened to remember the ones where you were defending your position as coming from one who wasn't biased against the movie.

At my theatre Black Panther is doing better than Deadpool, BvS, Suicide Squad, and Homecoming for pre-sales. It's slightly behind Civil War, and is on par with Ragnarok so far. 

Damn! I never would've expected it to match Civil War. That. Is. INSANE.

I think being on par with Ragnarok is the important one, not Civil War which started selling tickets almost 2 years ago.  Seems like everyone is jumping straight to the civil war comparison
