Death Wish, Hurricane Heist, Gringo, and Jumanji have sold nothing.

 

ICOI has definitely sold more seats in the original set of shows thanks to being moved into the biggest auditorium, but the second screen has only sold 22 extra seats.

 

Tomb Raider comps:

 

45% of Kingsman (17.8M)

45% of Red Sparrow (7.6M)

65% of Blade Runner (21.3M)

70% of The Commuter (9.6M)

 

The Kingsman and Blade Runner comps are consistent with what previews had, but it's lagging far behind Red Sparrow.

 

Love, Simon:

 

20% of Wrinkle in Time (6.6M)

25% of Wonder (6.9M)

60% of Maze Runner (14.5M)

67% of Happy Death Day (17.4M)

80% of Insidious (23.7M)

130% of Game Night (22.1M)

 

Meanwhile, this has done a complete 180 from previews  WTF do I put in my Derby???

So your small theater is probably gonna sell over 1000 tickets, or about $10K worth, just for ICOI this weekend?  Damn, if it can do that at every opening theater (but it won't at my local), that would be $16M OW, right?

I can only imagine (  ) 95% of sales are senior tickets or group tickets at a discounted rate, which is anywhere from $4.50-$8.35. If we meet in the middle and say it sells $6.30 for each ticket and sells out every show, that's $5,871.60 (afternoon senior pricing is only $5.60, so that may be a highball)

Freed was in about 150 theaters less than Darker for its fifth Week/end but is in about 250 more than Darker for its sixth weekend despite an obvious theatre/screen crunch with two new wide openers and one semi-wide opener.

 

Yeah, I'd say Universal is gunning for that 100m marker.

 

Might have a lot of shared screens though.  Even so it should beat Darker's 454k this weekend.

Well Tomb raider on pulse is selling 117/ 5min

200 m DOM confirmed.

Love, Simon is ahead of Tomb Raider on Pulse 

[JB33]

I really, really, really want TR to do at least well enough for a sequel. It wasn't perfect, by any means, but there is so much world building there to do.

[Hiccup23]

Love, Simon is # 2 on Pulse!!!!

Love, Simon is selling 17.9 tickets per minute on Pulse

Sad for Tomb Raider

[Brinatico]

Tomb raider 91/ 5 min = 18.2/ 1 min

[DAJK]

Love Simon's got a bunch of tickets sold at my theatre for tomorrow night. Tomb Raider not so much, but I really have no clue how walkup-based these will be

Hopefully Love Simon is closer to $15m than $10m this weekend. Tomb Raider needs to be over $20m.
