BLACK PANTHER WEEKEND THREAD | Current Estimates - 202.4M 3-day / 242.6M 4-day | Record 40.167 Monday; more than TFA!

[Jandrew]

We're witnessing history, yall. This is like witnessing Usain Bolt win his record gold, or Obama win the electorate, or the Cavs finally winning a ship. This board has been up over 6 years, over 2,000 days. This is a weekend for the books right here. Absolutely amazing. Like those 3 things, who knows if we'll see this again.

BP 4-day over TA 4-day?

[NCsoft]

Amazing numbers for BP, weekend not front-loaded always a good sign!

Holy crap, Sunday's only down 8.9% from Saturday. Absolutely amazing, Friday was 8th biggest OD, Saturday was 4th and now, Sunday potentially the biggest. What an amazing OW!!!!

Based on this trajectory BP will beat the Monday record by 10 m.

 

50 m tomorrow, confirmed.

Any other weekend and it'd be a hard no, but it looks like anything is possible right about now.

After you.

So BP will only have a 37% OD share of its OW. The SW films both had 47-48% and JW and TA both had 39%.

And guess which set of movies had 3x legs.

 

600 m, confirmed. 

[Jandrew]

The AMC in Decatur, GA has an 11:15AM and 9:15PM sold out for tomorrow. What random showtimes.

TLJ’s 2.8x multi has to be the absolute floor for BP. That’s $565m.

500 million locked??

can someone explain this logic to me. Sorry I missed this board during tlj's release. Wasn't TFA also very diverse with an amazing multiplier and generally really well liked by general audiences? How is TLJ being "diverse" the reason for it's poor word of mouth.

600M is happening and with the WOM it has, even 700M isn't crazy anymore.

I’m guessing Rose’s fault?

Can we even compare a December movie's legs to a February movie? December usually gives a movie bigger legs. TLJ would have certainly had worse legs in the summer.

Throwback.

Industry estimates do not believe at this point in time that Black Panther will emulate Civil War‘s opening despite the strong. If that’s the case, Black Panther would not only  become the highest opening of all-time for a February release, besting Fox/Marvel’s R-rated Deadpool ($132.4M), but the best opening before summer. Currently, non-Disney estimates before tracking believe Black Panther will post a $80M-$85M start with a possible shot at $100M-plus.
