Does Mary Poppin open in full Wednesday or it just preview?

Full Wednesday. Outside of a couple of fan events tomorrow, there aren't any previews happening at all.

So is that why Mary Poppins presales are now higher than Aquaman?

MPR and AQM have similar pre-sale numbers since the start, MPR outpaced now just because it opens 2 days before AQM

 

In my opinion, AQM is coming to $ 70 - 75M and MPR to $ 40 - 45M [3-day] debuts

11:00: 0/104

11:30 3D: 2/67

Total: 38/513 (18 2D/20 3D)

 

Holmes and Watson's Christmas evening show (only showtime up rn for that day): 26/70

 

Second Act:

5:00: 1/107

7:45: 4/77

10:30: 0/77

Total: 5/261

 

 

Welcome to Marwen has sold nothing across its three shows.

 

Poppins is looking fantastic on Wednesday. Wednesday night's Dolby show is already on par with the fan event, and the other shows are also selling strongly (it only has Dolby and one of the biggest auditoriums on Wednesday). Friday and especially Saturday are outselling Thursday by a big margin too, and Thursday's sales are pretty decent for a family film.

Aquaman has big sales over the weekend too. I think it's behind Poppins on Friday, but Saturday is close as that afternoon's 2D show is already halfway sold out.

Bumblebee is looking ok, but this is going to be more walkup based (hopefully).

Shallow Dong reports that AQUAMAN is about 50% of WW’s advanced sales. MPR all he says is “the sky’s the limit”.

I was looking at Holmes & Watson's sales on Fandango the past couple of days, and they're surprisingly not bad. It was initially ahead of Second Act by a pretty comfortable margin for the past few days. Right now, Second Act is ahead of it, but that's because it's coming out sooner.

 

Guess people can't resist that Ferrell-Reilly team-up (I'll probably force myself to see it tbh )
