Perplexed at that estimated Coco Sunday drop.  It doesn't seem to make sense at all.

 

Though anectodal, I'm really thinking that Disney really should have worked a bit harder to advertise this because a lot of people I've spoken to barely know it's out right now and normally Pixar movies have a stronger word of mouth in the fantasy/sci-fi crowd I usually deal with.  Everyone we've taken to it enjoyed it a lot, but most of the people I know have reached the point where the showings are so hard to get to now that they're just waiting for the streaming/blu ray release.

 

I will say it's hard to dismiss the possibility that the current political climate is also having a slight negative effect on it.  People seem to have little problem going onto Disney's Vevo and other youtube accounts to talk about how this movie should be banned in America for having Mexican characters and that's the sort of dialogue I don't think I've ever seen for other Pixar/Disney films.  

I think the Mexican aspect had little to do with its drops though. The competition from Jumanji and other films is more affecting it then anything. That and losing more theaters then Moana around the same time isn't helping either.

Jumanji is #4 on this list as well

As if we don't already get enough lmfao

I’m not saying we don’t... I just don’t know if theaters will agree if they have a 2-3 week lull in the action. Flexible scheduling helps I guess. Studios are spreading out their releases a lot more which also has to help but I notice IMAX theaters sit nearly empty except when Star Wars and Marvel comes around. They try with stuff like Beauty and LEGO Batman but nobody shows up. I went to both opening weekend and there was 1 other person there and 2 other people. That’s it. People will pay $20 for SW or Marvel but not for other big movies even. IMAX needs HUGE movies to fill those theaters.

Even giving it a massive drop next weekend, ~90m dom should happen.

(MTWT: Mon+Tue+Wed+Thu; MTWTFSS: Whole Week; Total by Sunday: ~64.25)

 

Mon: 3.75 [68] // 1st Jan

Tue: 2 [70]

Wed: 1 [71]

Thu: 1 [72]

FSS: 5 [77] [72% FSS drop!]

MTWT: 3 [80]

FSS: 2.5 [82.5]

MTWT: 1.5 [84]

FSS: 1.5 [85.5]

MTWTFSS: 2 [87.5]

MTWTFSS: 1 [88.5]

MTWTFSS: 0.5 [89]

Rest+$-Bump: ~1 [90]

(there is somewhere a 4-day MLK weekend in there which I have ignored because I am so thorough)

Yeah, people aren't rushing to watch TLJ again.

Maybe, but apparently a whale of a lot of them are seeing it once. 

 

And that is why TLJ is 'only' going to have around a 3 multiplier.   Unlike TFA a decent amount of those 1st WE viewers decided to see something else instead of a 2nd viewing.

 

But lets remove some of the hyperbole.

 

People not seeing a movie more than once in the theater does not mean there is  toxic... or even mixed... WOM.

 

A movie doing over 300 million in the 2 weeks after OW does not have mixed WOM.

 

A movie that will end with around 650M DOM does not have mixed WOM.

 

TLJ turned out not to be an 'event' movie like TFA and there is no doubt it is divisive with some hard core fans.

.

TLJ is going to drop from TFA about the same amount as AOTC did from TPM.  The big OW got a lot of us excited that TLJ was going to buck the trend.  But it didn't happen.

 

Disney is not panicked... there is not going to be any changes to their plans because of TLJ... and SW fans will be back to watch IX on OW in 2 years

If TLJ wasn’t an event movie than I guess nothing really is. It wasn’t a once-in-generation phenomenon like TFA, Avatar, or Titanic but everyone already knew that. No surprise there. Over $500M is an event movie haha for sure! $200M+ OW is an event movie.

We're all just not going to see eye to eye on TLJ's box office so I'm going to try not to discuss it anymore beyond my general comments on the daily numbers.

 

I said it in another thread: I think now I'm just anxious to get 2018 started. I'm actually going to see INSIDIOUS: THE LAST KEY next Friday. Yeah, that's how I'm going to ring in the new year of movies: by going to see 2018's first wide release.

Hmm, you mean they now know that.
