The first number is just higher than what I expected pre-release. So the second number is obviously better. But neither would make me "happy" as I don't tie my happiness in how much money a corporation makes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomCat Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 I'm still thinking 2.4x for IW. But 7M is a decent #. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Wow, can't believe there are people who legitimately think IW's number is bad. Holding slightly better than BP today was always the absolute best case scenario, though unlikely given the stronger Tue. It dropped less than 2% more on Wed, which could have easily been worse given the fact that it held 3% stronger than BP on Tue. Some of y'all need to get a reality stone. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I would also say it salvaged the bad OW with a great multiplier. But that would be a very disappointing box office result. So what you are saying is that it had an awesome opening and no matter what it finishes with, it will have a great total but a bad multiplier.

You realize that requires like 60% drops both this weekend and next weekend right? Nothing's impossible, but that would be shocking. IW is showing every indication of sub 45% this weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had an awesome opening, and is headed to an average multiplier. If it were to say get a 2.8 or so, I'd consider that really good. The total (if over $600 mil) is a great number in general!

Valonqar Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 (edited) is it little over 7M (insane legs, bye TFA!) or little under 7M (crumbling, flop, TA4 cancelled!)? Edited May 10, 2018 by Valonqar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weeks 5, 6, and 7 aren't gonna be harsh on it. 5 is a holiday weekend and 6 and 7 have no competition. DP2 is the only weekend where a harsh drop seems likely.
