Whatever it may mean, Wonder Park already entered the top 5 of MT:

#1 CM 64.2%
#2 HtTYD 7%
#3 A Madea Family Funeral 5.2%
#4 The Lego Movie2 1.9%
#5 Wonder Park 1.9%

I also discovered the first tickets for Dumbo on fandango today .
And Us was indeed clearly the #1 of the new releases of the next two weeks.

Family movies actually do well there, too...and it was #5 on Fandango until Shazam presold, so it's not a surprise it's there...

Captive State	60	172	402
Five Feet Apart	613	1,053	2,225
Wonder Park	607	988	1,749

 

 

Captive State comps:

77% of Upgrade (3.6M)

77% of Hotel Artemis (2.5M)

167% of Unfriended 2 (6.1M)

32% of El Royale (2.3M)

49% of Greta (2.2M)

 

Yeah, this is dump city

 

Five Feet Apart comps:

76% of Love, Simon (9M)

76% of Blockers (15.6M)

104% of Truth or Dare (19.5M)

20% of Ocean's 8 (8.3M)

384% of Darkest Minds (22.4M)

204% of Slender Man (23.2M)

185% of Second Act (12M)

61% of The Upside (12.3M)

 

This is really hard to find good comps for, because the Wednesday fan events are inflating Wednesday by a considerable amount. But I guess maybe around 9-12M?

 

Wonder Park comps:

26% of Hotel Transylvania 3 (11.7M)

82% of Teen Titans Go! (8.6M)

33% of Christopher Robin (8M)

48% of House w/ Clock (12.9M)

71% of Smallfoot (16.5M)

17% of The Grinch (11.7M)

115% of A Dog's Way Home (13M)

20% of Lego Movie 2 (6.9M)

13% of Dragon 3 (7.4M)

 

So yeah, low teens seems like the ballpark here.

My condolences.

[Eric Atreides]

Back from the dentist. Now let's look at the other stuff.

 

Movie/Date	Monday	Tuesday	Wednesday
Us	1,070	1,063	1,438
	11 days	10 days	9 days
Shazam Early	0	0	12,509
			10 days
Dumbo	777	685	442
	18 days	17 days	16 days
Shazam!	0	0	918
			23 days

 

Us

Days 14-9

136% of Glass (54.7M using the 3-Day, 63.1M using the 4-Day)

 

Dumbo

Days 18-16

144% of Dragon 3 (79.3M)

 

Cumulative

48% of Dragon 3 (26.3M) (Note Dragon 3 had 17 days more presales)

 

Shazam

Day 23

59% of Captain Marvel (90.9M)

 

First Day of Presales

15% of Captain Marvel (23.5M)

 

So yeah, there's a lot to unpack here.

 

-Us is continuing to kill it here, gaining on Glass by significant margins. Considering Glass is a more fan-driven movie (although Get Out/Peele fans might hurt my argument here), this is doing excellently.

 

-Dumbo's coming back down to earth more as presales slow down a touch, but still going strong.

 

-Shazam is way too early to call, with two extremes depending on where you're going. But getting close to 1,000 is a great start either way.

 

I wish I could use the Dragon 3 Fandango show to compare with the Shazam Fandango show, but the problem comes with showtimes. Shazam has two, while Dragon had 1. That makes comparing the two exceedingly difficult. Ah well.
