The Box Office Buzz and Tracking Thread: Electric Boogaloo

[Fanboy]

I wouldn't be surprised if Oceans 8 and Hereditary both performed better than their tracking range. Hotel Artemis is doomed if these presales are any indication of how it will play this weekend.

That's great news for The Incredibles 2, It will certainly break the preview record for Dory but i don´t know if it will break the record for biggest animated opening weekend

If Ocean's is going for 40-45, that puts Hered at 14-16, that's some good territory

 

How's your theater looking for I2 btw?

Heredity would be far more front loaded as horror

Their June 15 Incredibles 2 is currently pacing to become Fandango’s biggest animated pre-seller off all-time beating the pre-sales records of Disney/Pixar’s Finding Dory at the same point in its sales cycle, as well as a number of live-action superhero titles including last summer’s Wonder Woman, Spider-Man: Homecoming and 2016’s Suicide Squad.

 

Similar to Finding Dory three summers ago, Incredibles 2 is a long-awaited legacy sequel primed to stoke not only its older fans, but younger too with the potential to pull in a swath from 3-years old to 90. The most ambitious forecasts for the Brad Bird-directed title are in the upper $140Ms, meaning Incredibles 2 could topple Finding Dory‘s $135M opening to become the highest debut for an animated film ever at the domestic box office.

yeah I know, I just didn't know how to shrink it, so went for the lazy simple maths route  

[TwoMisfits]

So, there's an Atom deal for Ocean's 8 with $8 off 2 tickets...not sure how this will play at theaters, but I have presales tonight for my 2 locals...

 

Non-Atom (Cinemark) - 3 showings - 25/600 tickets sold - that's it so far...not looking very good for a big breakout...in fact, kinda looks disappointing...

Atom (Regal) - 2 showings - 49/180 tickets sold - better with a lot less availability, but still not $50M weekend kinda numbers...

 

PS - And checked Friday night primetime (7pm) showings and there is a large difference in presales...very few at the Cinemark (under 20), but 2/3rd of a 200 seater at the Regal...so individual theaters might have wildly different "looks" for how this movie will do...

Keep in mind for Ocean's 8 that there were some previews last night as well that may have eaten away at some of the demand in certain areas but also keep it in mind because of its preview number. That and the 4PM start time for tonight which imo is rather pointless when you consider the demo they're trying to reach. 

I dont think we will know how this is gonna play out until we get the Friday number to be honest because of how previews are set up. 

 

Based on looking at theaters in my area, unless this is extremely walk up heavy I'm not sensing a $50M+ weekend that I'd hoped for....but again I have no clue how this movie will perform so it's preview number may not matter. At the moment I'm thinking $40-45M for it. 

 

 Also the 4PM showtimes as I said above are looking to be useless. They start in 4.5 hours here and at 4 different theaters in my area they've sold nothing. Whereas the 7PM/7:15PM showtimes have sold high single digits/low double digits for comparison.

Hotel Artemis actually has a digital billboard along I-95. Unfortunately, it's probably there in vain.
