I know we go through this every time, but guys, it's super early.

Agree

[Jandrew]

Hell nah, it's way too early. The biggest audience for this movie will be coming from urban cities and the South. People on the east coast are still at work. Cities like Chicago, Houston, and St Louis just got back from lunch like an hour ago. Those numbers will def be going up. Expecting strong evening business.

Coogler's a hack! Cancel the MCU!!

At least there is room to grow. Better than the Ultron scenario.

Deadline's #s are be conservative. They're going to shoot up tonight, like Deadpool's first #s two years ago, same holiday weekend, bigger cultural zeitgeist.

$175m is good even if a little conservative. I think it goes up to at least $190m for the 3 day though.

Other movies (but honestly, who cares):

Quote

Universal’s Fifty Shades Freed is estimated to take $5.5M today, -70% with a 4-day between $15M-$20M in second place. On the high end, this sends the threequel’s cume to $79M-plus.

 

Lionsgate/StudioCanal/Aardman’s family title Early Man is eyeing $1.1M today, $6.1M over four-days in its opening.

 

PureFlix’s sword and sandal movie Samson is looking at $750K for Friday, $2.6M over the four-day holiday.

Speaking of the south, Atlanta, GA has a lot of sell outs.

Not surprised. It should easily be a top 4 market for this, maybe top 3. They won't be able to keep up with demand.
