Unless there's some announcement saying otherwise that I just happen to have missed, I'd bet that Fox will hold Three Billboards back from a 2,000-theater release until Oscar nominations are announced in January.

They're expanding to 800-900 theaters next weekend, I dont know how much wider it's going to go in December.

Moana had an odd opening. Looked like WOM was going crazy out of the gate based on the OD, which kept going up and ended up beating Frozen, but then it ended up being pretty frontloaded after all and missing Frozen's 5 day by 12m.

Moana did $15.5m after $2.6m previews.

 

Why is Coco only doing $12m despite previews of only $300k less? 

 

Moana actually made $12.9m after $2.6m previews.

[The Panda]

12.5m is a fairly solid opening day for Coco, I'm curious to see how it'll play out.  I still expect it to be more backloaded.

To people mocking Justice League:

 

[MovieMan89]

Just realized Coco is only Pixar's 2nd movie out of their last 8 to have an average score over 8.0 on RT. Kind of crazy considering before then nearly every movie they released pulled 8.5+, and they all pulled at least 8.0 except Cars. Truly an unprecedented quality streak in animation.

There you go with an immature mocking again, how many posts has it now been 100 ? oh and you realize Deadline is lowballing again right. they did it only for JL on monday too with 6-7 million.

7M wasn't too far off from the actual. Variety is backing Deadline too.

Wow thats even lower than Deadline for Coco and JL. Although their 5 days projection for Coco (70m) is higher than deadlines 68m and their projection for JL (60-65m) is lower than Deadlines 68m. Pretty much same on Wonder though

JL going down I see. May be lucky to pull 40 this weekend if it holds any worse than FB.

[Poseidon]

JL isn't going down. it's a 1.30PM Update, that is 200k lower than Deadline. Keeping in mind, that the article has to be written first and that numbers probably aren't completely real time, we are talking about an estimate, that includes 12.30 PM shows on the WC. 

That means nothing.

[YM!]

Another fucking JL argument that leads to nowhere.

[That One Girl]

Let's wait for numbers that...aren't matinee estimates?

[junkshop36]

It still early. Those numbers will go up. 

[WrathOfHan]

If JL follows CF with 10.3M:

 

7.4M

 

15.6M

14M

7M

36.6M Weekend, 61% drop

 

[Lordmandeep]

25 million 5 day for Thor be awesome.

Seriously lay off it.

 

There’s nothing so far to indicate that it’s following CF.

There's nothing indicating it's following anything  It had a big Tuesday increase yet might decrease today, which is practically unheard of for a new release on Thanksgiving week. Catching Fire showed some frontloading over Thanksgiving, so I think it's a somewhat fair comp.

We all use early estimates to make a premature guess no matter how low or high. No exceptions are made.
