HAN SOLO MEMORIAL (day weekend) THREAD | Solo Flops Domestically with 83M/101M weekend. Spectacularly Bombs Overseas with 65M weekend.

[CJohn]

13-15M means it will probably do less than half of R1's previews. Big YIKES. 100M 4 day weekend seems like the target at this point.

weird i can only see "want to see" i tried to refresh and... nothing.

[a2k]

one way to see 250+ dom:

15 previews stick and can do 40+28+25+21 =  93/114

2.2*114 (2.7*93) gives 251.

 

but that's on the brighter side of things.

 

it takes solo into O/U 500 ww territory...shudder.

there is precedent for that on big budget misfires if you discount china.

TLK WW-China was 376.5

JL WW-China was 552

SOLO WW-China could be 485-490 (using 50-50 Dom-OS split; so 250 OS and 10-15 from China)

 

[Krissykins]

69% from critics on RT now.

 

Grossing half of Rogue One’s total (the other recent spin off from the same franchise) is awful no matter what way you slice it.

If anyone had said Ready Player One OVER Solo OS and WW last year, they would have been laughed at.

Lord Star Wars fans are fucking cancer.

I was thinking about it, what if something like ragnarok happened in star wars. Wiping all the slate, changing the main character, lore, and all. They will go crazy.

Even something safe like tlj was enough to cause them eternal harm.

[dxmatrixdt]

Rogue Ones first days look like this...

 

29 previews + 42 Friday + 46.3 Saturday + 37.7 Sunday = 126 + previews

 

 

I have this scenario for Solo w/ half of Rogue One previews

 

14.52 previews + 35 Friday + 40 Saturday + 36 Sunday = 125.52 w/ previews

TLJ did 64% business of TFA WW, if Solo does 64% of RO, it'll end up with 680M but it's going to drop even more looking at early OS markets trend and OW projections.So far it has dropped 65%in Taiwan and France and 40% in Italy as compared to RO. Last year POTC5 was considered a bit of disappointment but it's OS gross may end up greater than Solo WW. Boba Fett movie may actually bomb if they're not careful.

Seriously do they really plan to have a Boba Fett movie? The only character from OT/PT that might have some drawing power to do a spin-off movie is Obi wan Kenobi.

Solo in pre release tracking vs Solo post preview night numbers.

The only thing that will save this film are great legs overseas and domestically.

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom will be cutting off Solo's OS legs

Too bad JW2 opens on June 5th in many countries.

The box office gross of Solo really isn't surprising.  People should have seen this coming

[DAJK]

Did less than our equivalent of 12M previews at my theatre tonight. Shame too, cause I watched it for a late show and really fucking loved it.

 

Definitely worth a try, shame that a good, very entertaining movie is always going to have to live with this stigma of box office disappointment

Everybody seems to be very positive about Solo, I do think that the Dom opening is big enough for WoM to spread. It might have decent/good legs. 

OS this wil be harder, because even with good WoM if you open to 18k people (Sk) you won't have much people talking about it.

[Ryan Reynolds]

RT aud score still dropping 64%

WOM might not save it, sure it skewed by trolls, but shouldn't matter after a certain amount of votes

[Krissykins]

Solo is Star Wars’ Justice League.
