How my theater has been doing today:

 

It is averaging around 12 tickets per showing. Considering it's on 4 screens now, that's good but a step down from what Tuesday-Thursday were doing on two screens.

AA has been selling like crazy. The first two shows nearly sold out, and the show in 45 minutes has sold 28 seats. Tonight is looking very promising too.

mother! is performing like dogshit. The first two shows sold between 6-9 tickets, and the one in 15 minutes is in the same range at 7 tickets. The late show has already sold 12, so I wonder how well it'll pick up tonight.

The BATB rerelease sold 10 tickets for its first show and is at 5 for the night show. I suppose that's fine for something that's only playing for a week.

Home Again is selling like crazy; every show so far has been between 20-30 seats.

Emoji's two shows have sold in the mid-teens and low-20s.

SMH's show this afternoon sold over 30 tickets! It's impressive how well it's selling this late into its run.

Wind River has been selling high singles-low teens today, which isn't too bad.

THB has been hovering in high singles save for the show that's starting soon that's sold over 20 tickets.

Annabelle is only playing at night now, but the first show has sold 4 tickets so far.

Logan Lucky and All Saints are pretty much done.

No one talking about Home Again, but it made 20% more Wednesday than Monday and only dropped 7% Wednesday to Thursday (Thursday still 12% above Monday).  Not a great opening but it is having a pretty amazing week off that base...

If that 17.5 holds for IT we are in for a massive second weekend.

 

Could challenge 60 mill.

Runtimes without credits and attachments for next week:

 

Kingsman: 2:15. Attachments unknown.

LEGO Ninjago: 1:32 (there's a 3 minute gap between the start of the credits and crawl, so there's probably a mid-credits scene). Attachments unknown.

Friend Request: 1:27. It doesn't look like there are any attachments from Entertainment Studios, so there will either be none or they'll be from other studios.

Yeah, I think it could be in store for a very light drop this weekend.

True. Also the prod budget is only 12 (Mojo).

I had asked that on the China thread and @Potus replied:

Too many seats now on OW. 

In domestic a $150m OW will get 12k screens out of 40k. Spidey had 50% of 44k screens in china.  They rush to see films, <2x will become common. FF8 fell short of 2x and its the biggest HLWD movie at CBO.  Whereas the top 3 grossers of the last 5 years in Domestic SW7 JW and TA were all 3x+, greater than the norm.

SMH could be as low as 1.8, 2 possible.

Apes looking to open at $50m**. Not huge but could help cause a 75%+ drop for SMH

**This was a few days back so that number is old. Now it's $60m.

Enormous screen saturation opening w/e and week.  It's getting about 50% of all screens.  Known brand - huge upfront rush with no lack of available seating.

 

They do have the occasional WOM monster though - even with a blockbuster opening (but that's usually local)

[MrGlass2]

It's run is amazing.

I don't know. 3000 theaters seems low, no?

Eh, it's fine. I imagine it can get up to 3,400-3,500.

Because films that are different from anything the big six normally puts out deserve to fail.

Be different.

Gal Gadot.

Only if she played Wonder Woman (and Javier Bardem played Chronus).
