Pacific Rim: Uprising is outselling Tomb Raider, which is good. Sold 27 tickets in the last 24 hours and should pick up.

I don't have like-for-like data on other movies, but it's already well ahead in number of seats sold, if not total sellouts, from where Black Panther was a few days before release:

 

Monday of release week, BP was at:

 

	Sellouts	Showings	Seats left	Total Seats	Perct Sold
TOTALS	6	81	3766	8279	54.51%

 

4,513 tickets sold versus 5,863 IW has already sold.

 

It's probably lagging behind TFA/TLJ, but I wasn't closely following those until much later in their runs.  And even then I didn't keep track of total seats, but sellouts and how close some theaters were to sellouts.

 

To put this all another way: Very very well and better than BP at this point in its presale run.

1. Infinity War

2. Pacific Rim

3. Black Panther

4. ICOI

5. Love, Simon

 

It's pretty concerning that Sherlock Gnomes hasn't popped up yet.

Completely forgot that movie was coming out 

Wonder if it still hits the 14.5m OW forecast by Proboxoffice...

Personally, I think it'll limp over 10M. Paddington 2 was selling better than it, and Gnomes has the benefit of Spring Break. There is zero reason why it shouldn't be on either Pulse or MT.

[filmlover]

Does anyone even remember Gnomeo & Juliet? It was over seven years ago.

[WrathOfHan]

Something like this is going to happen for Sherlock Gnomes:

 

Mar 23: 11M (3.5M weekdays, 14.5M Total)

Mar 30: 5.1M (3.1M weekdays, 22.7M Total)

Apr 6: 2.3M (1.2M weekdays, 26.2M Total)

Apr 13: 1M (500k weekdays, 27.7M Total)

Final Total: 30M (2.73x)

 

We're pretty much looking at a more frontloaded Nut Job 2. Weekdays are going to be working against the weekend holds badly because of Spring Break, and when it's in so many theaters, the PTA is bound to be below 2k in its second weekend. Theaters will be eager to dump it fast, especially because there are other movies to fill the obligatory family film quota.

85/840 tickets sold for the full weekend at the closest place to me with the movie (not one I track, so not sure how it compares)...this represents no groups, so I also don't know if Paul has been as successful as ICOI at making that happen...also, this is not "Paul" country (just like it wasn't ICOI country), so it's not as sucky as it might appear:)...

 

So, with that number, I feel good it's getting to 7 figures...now to get it to 8 figures and win my bet:)...

113/840 now...decent increase:)...now here's hoping ICOI country is adopting this movie this week:)...

Tonight at my theater:

I do not understand how Wrinkle is so high it will not beat Simon, TR, Sherlock and some others. So Why is it trending so high. Plus ICOI is not beating PRU or some of these others either ?

With Pacific Rim, I'm a little hesitant on people saying $20M is a lock now, but maybe my theater's just underperforming.

Gnomes meanwhile  

I'm tempted to go with this

 

[TwoMisfits]

Gnomes better have a very late-breaking audience...checked my 1st local (where it's getting one of the biggest screens) - 0 tickets sold Friday, 18 tickets sold for all of Saturday...this is for the equivalent of 2220ish seats for the combined days...

 

They should have booked Paul...ICOI turned into a hit for them last weekend, and they should have just kept rolling the dice...

 

PS - If it's not out already, I see a very last minute ticket deal coming from the presellers (Atom/Fandango)...I mean, this is late for still selling this cruddy...they need to try to spike demand...
