And that's for the whole weekend? I'm sure that accounts for a higher percentage of previews than for a film in December, but that certainly sounds like $14M is the best it'll do tonight.

The advantage Solo has is that it has been given a LOT of showtimes by theaters. They have given it a Star Wars episode level of showtimes tonight for previews. Might help walkups.

Solo O/U $110M 4 Day?

It won't matter if those showtimes for Solo are mostly empty.

I honestly woudnt be surprised to see Solo now struggling to reach 100M 4-Day. Though i really hope it does surpass that. If not...oh god, it would be even more embarrassing than Justice Leagues epic floppage.

And I thought I was being pessimistic with a 115m 4 day.

Those ratios just keep falling.  This movie is withering before our eyes.

I still think this is going to hit $120M over the 4-day weekend, but I don't know why.

The forum gets really extra either when they see a film is about to overperform or when they see a film is about to underperform. 

 

And by extra i mean they start to throw out these wacky numbers like Solo going under $100M for the 4-day which is pretty much impossible.

Honestly, after seein Justice League implode, it really doesnt seem that impossible if the demand/interest simply isnt there. It would still shock me as i saw this movie opening to 140M+ 4-Day just 1 month ago, but still...it cant be completely ruled out at this point.

[Biggestgeekever]

BP losing half of its theaters this weekend. If it doesn't get a double feature boost from Solo, it'll really be a crawl to that $700M. 

 

Also a little unfortunate to see A Quiet Place shed another 800 theaters.

5 hours later one more ticket was sold! 

[Boxofficerules]

Why is Solo the one getting so much hate? Personally I’ve never really cared for Star Wars so I have no feelings either way but it looks like the other movies and the reviews are decent (yes 71% on RT is decent.) so why is this one getting so much flak and potentially bombing?
