They've got to start doing some fresh Conjuring universe entries. Well there is reviewers that do say its has some pretty scary moments too. Its different in each person what is scary to them.

Cmasterclay Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Why the shit is this opening on a Wednesday? Makes it hard to predict but even worse much, much less fun to track. I fucking HATE when movies come out on days besides Friday, tbh. Unless it is Xmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the tracking thread peeps, Far From Home has been a nightmare. At least with Annabelle we can point to Purge or Happy Death Day. The last Tuesday openers were Vice and Holmes and Watson. Then before that was Amazing Spider-Man. We have nothing to go off of. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only reason I can think of is FFH opening on Tuesday and Annabelle wants to have 6.5 days where it doesn't have to face it. If it opened on Friday, it'd have Thr previews (which are minimal for horror films), Fri, Sat, Sun, and Mon before getting crushed on Tue, Wed, and Thr. Sure they're not remotely in the same demo, but having a week's worth of days as the main 'new' wide opening film probably counts for something. But it is literally the only reason I can really think of. Basically, they're trying to shift the 'first week sales' from July 3rd - July 4th to June 26th - June 27th while also maybe still getting a holiday boost. Someone has a better answer, I'd love to hear it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Horror of Lucas Films Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 They've made a big mistake releasing it against so much competition. IMO. Not sure about other places, but here in Brazil buzz is quite low, despite the franchise being super popular here (The Nun finished in the top 5 of 2018 in ADMs). I think it will have a strong drop. They should've released it in August like A:C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Horror of Lucas Films Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 $3.5m at previews. That's only .05m less than A:C despite being a Tuesday release. That's amazing, TCU is unstoppable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 It seems to be holding on to the fresh RT really well. Constantly rebounding from a 61% up to 66%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB33 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 $7.1M is the estimate for opening day. Yikes! That means the previews accounted for almost HALF the opening day. Not looking good at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baumer posted this in the Wednesday thread. Quote How many people honestly knew that Annabelle was coming out on Wednesday. I don't think most people knew it was coming out early and Friday is much more of a traditional date to release a movie. I'm sure Annabelle will be just fine. And this panic about a Wednesday drop for toy Story after it just did 20 million on Tuesday, come on people. Have you guys not learned anything yet about Tuesday increases and Wednesday drops? It makes sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, Wednesday or not, that multi is new territory. We've never had to defend a Wednesday opener like this before? Why now? When I have some time I want to compile a list of Wednesday openers and their previews-to-opening day multis and see if any of them are comparable.
