I have WIT, Blockers, Super Troopers, and Truth or Dare all doing between 1-1.1M I guess you could use Disney's Labor Day expansions as precedent. In all those cases IIRC the PTAs tend to drop like 25-35% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That just leaves me guessing whether or not Blockers benefits from Mothers Day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see why they'd want that record. They can't go for it next year because of Penguins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MovieMan89 Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Though Nutcracker really isn't any kind of lock for 100, so WiT fudging may be moot for that record. Its release date is counter-productive to holiday legs since it's nearly two months away from Xmas-New Years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porthos Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Actually, I just had a thought. What's more funny here? Disney's naked and unabashed posturing? Or that 1,700 theaters said "Sure, why not". Those theaters must be REALLY hard up for family films and/or getting a great deal on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, theaters are hard up for kid's films right now though. Parents literally have zero options right now for younger kids, and that's not changing for another month+. I'm starting to understand now why some here are expecting Incredibles 2 to explode so huge. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfHan Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 I'm curious if Rampage is going to get close enough for a fudge. It'll be at 91-92M by next Thursday, and even though Deadpool will cause a big drop next weekend, it'll rebound a bit on Memorial Day. By that point, it'll be at 95-96M. What an exciting time for fudges between this, WIT, and A Quiet Place! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't worry about Nutcracker if AWiT already dropped the baton, after all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porthos Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 (edited) All laughing aside, just did a twirl on Sacto screens for AWiT. Every theater I've seen is devoting half a theater to it, and are largely in the noon/early afternoon showings. Not a single showing starting after 5pm. Most of them aren't even bothering to do ones past 4pm (about 50/50 at an eyeballs glance). Quick non-exhaustive glance is something like 18/24 showings are starting before 2pm. Didn't check ALL theaters, but that's pretty representative. Not sure we'll see as big of a spike on Friday as some might think, though at this stage anything is a spike. Even more concentrated in the morning/afternoon showings for Sat and Sun. Edited May 10, 2018 by Porthos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should easily be able to manage another $3.5M - $4M in the subsequent 15 days which would be Memorial Day. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With this kind of epic fudging, if AWIT ends up missing that $100M mark, in spite of this wild-ass Mother's Day expansion, I am leaving this site forever...or at least until 2019...whichever comes first. Because if this shit misses in spite of all of the fudge in the world, and manages to ruin the one good chance I had at a successful club, I won't be able to live with myself.

In terms of the two theaters near my house: The 14-screener is doing five showtimes (don't ask me how big the auditorium is, because I don't know, but I assume it's a smaller one), while the 22-screener has four showtimes (see the former parentheses). It's spread evenly throughout the day. The one near my university (aka the one I look at in the Buzz & Tracking thread): Now that one's only one morning show and one afternoon show. They're also in the smallest auditorium (71 seats) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrycaul Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Is Disney doing any marketing for this? Does anyone even remember the movie at this point, much less go out looking for tickets for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
