If I had to guess, it's from Irma.

Yeah, the BOM article mentions Florida alone makes up 5-6% of domestic market

Does this mean we could see better weekday holds %-wise than usual for September?

Obviously, but they still over did it with -55%, especially as an opener, and one which surprised on Saturday posting 45m+ with a +22% hold from true Friday.

Rival studios, analyists like Giesh, Deadline knew they had overdone it very soon.

They already tend to lowball blockbusters. WW's first three Sunday drops were all underpredicted. Irma simply widened the range.

[Krissykins]

Oh god that's massive I knew it would be underestimated obviously but wow.

Depends on how long it takes Florida and Houston to get back up and running at full capacity. I'm guessing it'll be pretty gradual so we won't notice anything in particular

[picores]

So around 122.8m OW....holy shit! 

 

Last great benchmark would be a 123.1m OW just to hit the 30k PTA

[baumer]

This is just shocking.

[lobogotti]

Man, yesterday I said it would be 7-10M underestimated and just missed it at $6M!

 

It is literally and figuratively a MONSTER!

[CJohn]

@MCKillswitch123 American Made leads the weekend here for the 2nd week in a row while Logan Lucky and Renegades implode. The Hitman's Bodyguard is a big hit.

A $100m opener in September is amazing. It would be nice if studios would take note of this.
