New Year's Day Weekend Thread: Late Friday estimates (DHD) - TLJ 19.5M, Jumanji 17.5M, PP3 6.7M, TGS 5.3M

[Elessar]

People are mad at deadline for no reason. What do you expect? These are very early numbers, of course the possibility for them changing is quite high. At least you have something to discuss....

We can't even blame these numbers on Nikki being drunk anymore

Bright is okay to watch at home and you fall asleep twice during the middle movie. 

[Moose]

I made it through Bright in 20 minute spurts.

If I believed Deadline I would still have my $28.1M from last Friday to look at when I saw TLJ’s dailies. So yeah, they fucking suck at this. On the West theaters are still showing their first showings of the day! 

 

You went on some pretty long-winded rants about what would happen last Friday based on that 28 number. Those projections have been flushed down the toilet.

Nobody was mad at Deadline last week when they said it would make 28m

It's when Jonny doesn't rant, that's when you know somethings a miss.

Thank you Deadline right? And yes, flushed right down the shitter. Just clogged up the shitter with those in fact. And it overflowed. And flooded the house. And I evacuated, forced to stay away for a day or so while the mess was sorted out. While asleep on the couch at a neighbors house I was bitten by a radioactive spider. And now I’m Spider-Man. My movie hits theaters in 2019, Spider-Man: The Toilet Clogging.

It's because they're terrible. If you're going to put something out this early for the sake of it with almost no data to back it up, at least apply some logic to it. Throw a 5 to 10% jump on Thursday's number and publish that.

Because an increase, no matter how big or small, at least makes sense.

I dunno I foresee a lot of backlash about the origin story of Spider-Man and how it messes with the established lore. Some will call it a delicious reimagining of an age old tale for the Millennial generation, others will call it... well, others will call it a load of crap.

Only if you promise not to dress like a Navi like last time and start talking about sacred trees

[the beast]

Using exact same drops as Night At The Museum (2006) gets Jumanji to $63.3m over 4 days and $48.3m over 3 days

Using Those drops for Last Jedi get it to $84m over 4 days and $64m over 3 days

Same drops as The Pursuit of Happyness (2006) get Pitch Perfect 3 to $29.2m over 4 days and $22.2m over 3 days
