Nothing amazing yet...and it seems both theaters knew which movie would sell better at each:)...  

Looks like 12 Strong is... 12 seats strong at that theatre...

One theater popped - one didn't...grabbed now (12 Strong has 15 minutes to 1st show, but D of T has started)...

 

1st local

12 Strong - 17/370

D of T - 16/120

 

2nd local

12 Strong 47/100

D of T 95/180

 

2nd local usually sells the male-skewing movies better...and it is again...

Fifty Shades Darker was tracking similarly. It could stay flat from the last

[TwoMisfits]

And for those wondering, TLJ continues to lose theaters at a slightly higher rate than RO...RO lost 559 for this weekend - TLJ loses 634...now behind by about 150 theaters...

Well, at least we have Geostorm to compare for Thieves! Preview comps will probably work better. Damn, I don't need this uncertainty for the Derby tournament final

40% of MBU (4.2M)

85% as Same Kind of Different (2.2M)

LA Times says 12 Strong's budget is 35M (roughly). Not bad at all, since it looks like it cost at least 50 from the trailers IMO

After last weekend and Paddington, I'm going to trust Han in that 12 Strong could surprise and do mid-to-high teens rather than the 12/13M expected

It's possible, but I feel the Friday comps are a bit off. Thank Christ the Derby deadline is late again

I'm somewhat getting that feeling too, especially if A Wrinkle in Time underperforms as much as I think it does

 

Why do people here think this? It's an extremely popular book and a kid's flick.

People here tend to under-estimate live action family fare, especially these Disney ones. Happens all the time. Actually, kids/family stuff in general is underestimated here unless it's Pixar or WDAS.
