Hit me with your wang all the times you want over the week.

Just slap your face with your pinky, that should simulate it pretty well.

@grim22 have we got some comps you can easily find?

 

CM and DBZ seem huge, Glass seems okay

[Deep Wang]

Looks like this time last year BP after 3 days was right at 2m.  So it's trailing that slightly.

 

However, CM will have an entire extra month to sell.

holy crumb bollocks that's a good start

Those Glass numbers seem kind of weak. Granted it's only had a week of pre-sales, but I feel like it should at least hit 500K if it wants to do boffo business next week.

It might get close to 1m by Thursday.  The number generally doubles from Mon-Tues/Wed.

Do you really think OW record is in play for CM? I keep reading it over and over and can't work out whether you're trolling or not

I mean, obviously it's a long shot.  But it's off to a waaaaay better start that I ever imagined and it still has 8 full weeks to sell.  

 

BP only had a month, and it sold consistently well all the way to release.  Usually presales are front-loaded to the first few days and then trail off until it gets closer, then ramps up until release.  This one has a huge head start and I wouldn't be surprised if it gets to about $10m.

Thanks for the deep inside Mr Wang

I'll have sellouts later tonight bc I'm at the theater for Bumblebee rn ( @CJohn), but the parking lot is v busy

The only OW record in play for CM is the March record. Or maaaaaybe the solo SH OW record if everything aligns perfectly. Incidentally that would make 7 of the top 10 OWs Disney SH movies.

Yeah, that makes a lot more sense then, happy to be on the same page.   

 

And of course CM could miss that and still have a contextual great opening.

Okay, somehow I can't place what DBZ is, and it's driving me nuts!

 

Especially since with presales that high, it should be obvious...
