Taruseth Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 2 minutes ago, IronJimbo said: looks to be $23.5 which is a 5% drop. Tell me if I'm wrong but shouldn't we expect a slightly better hold for IW than Avengers due to Ticket discount tuesdays? That seems to stop working once the weekdays got to big (TFA dropped as did JW and the Avengers and TLJ) and the hold is slightly better Avengers dropped 6.5%. But I also think Monday might have profited from some Spillover business. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabiopazzo2 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 This weekend, analysts expect Infinity War to clear between $100M-$125M. On the high-end that’s a -51% dip. 2012’s Avengers eased 50% in its second May weekend with $103M, while Age of Ultron declined 59% in its second weekend for $77.7M. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceFire9yt Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 (edited) Looking at the other mega-openers (TFA, TLJ, JW, TA) it looks like a slight Tuesday drop is to be expected. Is it the case that discount Tuesday doesn't really help movies that are already operating at near capacity?

bladels Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 (edited) All $200M+ openers drop on Tue. I don't know why some of you guys expect $27-30M Edited May 2, 2018 by bladels 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caladbolg Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 That's a huge Tuesday gross for AIW. It edges out Finding Dory for No 5 spot on Non opening Tuesday list and No 7 on the general Tuesday list (source BOM). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, this happened with TFA and here's my theory: When you have a film that has such demand like IW does, you basically have a huge amount of people seeing it on Monday. They don't care about the price. So when Tuesday comes around and the price is cheaper, you actually lose a bit of money because almost the same amount of people are seeing on Tuesday as Monday but they are paying less, so the gross goes down. Look at the Tuesday numbers for December for TFA: http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=daily&id=starwars7.htm 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the days go on, and the demand from the core audience has been largely satiated, then the stingy crowd comes into play and Thuesdays get their big jumps.

But to be honest as I posted, I thought IW might be able to stay flat (mainly because who thought IW would have a 82M Saturday or a 69M Sunday (as big as the previous record Saturday) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mad Titan Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 $23.5 million Tuesday is a very good drop given the comps. I’m going with $17 million today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
