La Binoche Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Another day above $1M for Hereditary. Today will probably be its first sub $1M day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People do that for all movies. It might do the same as JW, but one should remember this isn't JW, it's the sequel, so normally it would be more presales heavy.

MovieMan89 Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Just now, baumer said: So now Dory isn't a quad 4 movie? Jesus dude. Did we ever say it was? Thought the assumption was always that it skewed very family heavy. Anyways, you can look at the data yourself if you don't believe me about Dory having crappy second weekend jumps compared to most Pixar films.

MovieMan89 Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 2/3 of Dory's OW audience were families according to BOM. I wouldn't call that real 4 quad, that's definitely a heavy family skew. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB33 Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 5 minutes ago, baumer said: And this is what some of us have been saying. It opened to double preview number and about 35% higher than the previous record for animation, so why wouldn't it have burned off a lot of demand? I agree with this. I just don't know how movieman and others are expecting I2 to win the weekend. Yes, but I guess I still sort of hoped the excellent word of mouth and increased adult/male appeal would have allowed for similar holds. Still enormous numbers! It just would have been neat to see $20M+ from Monday through Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cars 3 for example held way worse than Dory on its first weekdays and then had a huge second weekend Friday jump. Same with Inside Out and pretty much all other same release date Pixar movies. Dory's second weekend holds were really weak and the weekdays really strong. Would make sense if it was mainly playing to families and not 4 quad like I2 seems to be. dory and ts3 had a similar 46% 2nd weekend drop. i2 may do better than my -58% prediction but i don't know how dory could have done better than -46% in summer after a 135+ ow. EDIT: i think the max i2 can do is 18.5 thu (-6%) 25.9 (+40%) 33.7 (+30%) 27.0 (-20%) = 86.6 (-52.6%) Edited June 21, 2018 by a2k 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 To demonstrate what I'm talking about here with Dory having weak second weekend holds compared to many Pixar films, if I2 were to follow Dory's second Fri-Sun holds, it only gets around 75m this weekend. Give it IO and Cars 3's second Fri-Sun holds though and it gets around 100. Don't know if it will do quite that well, but I'd bet it will be closer to their holds than Dory's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has nothing to do with Dory having a weak second weekend hold. It has to do with the individual weekend day holds being weak. It was still able to have a strong second weekend hold overall because its weekdays prior were so strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does have excellent word of mouth, but it's also playing like a sequel that blew expectations out of the water. Having it fall 55% this weekend wouldn't be shocking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sal Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 I'm not sure Moviepass' decision to add charges for popular movies is going to endear them with the audience. http://www.indiewire.com/2018/06/moviepass-surge-pricing-imax-plan-bring-a-friend-1201977305/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind I'm talking about individual weekend day holds, not the weekend drop. Cars 3 for example had a way worse second weekend drop than Dory, yet it's Fri-Sun holds for I2 get it 25m higher this weekend than Dory's Fri-Sun holds.

I am talking about this weekend. Just using the individual Fri-Sun holds, of which Dory's sucked. Its second weekend hold was only so good because its first weekday holds were incredible. But sure, I'll take a closer to 100 than 75 bet in the Casino. So 87.5 is the cutoff then. $1 more I win, $1 less you win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was kind of expecting since the beginning of the week I2 wouldn’t hold on weekdays as well as a typical family film but make up for it in the weekends. The reasoning mostly being that it’s not as family skewing as past Pixar. Then again I could be wrong. I’m still expecting it to go over 90m for the weekend, but we’lll see 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if it makes 87.501, you win. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamblinRed Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 I think it will be interesting to see tomorrow how close FK's previews are against I2's Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Panda Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 (edited) My expectation for the weekend (I’m using holds more similar to IO rather than dory) Fri: 28.1m Sat: 40m Sun: 30.4m Wknd: 98.5m Im also basing Fri off of the fact that I’ve noticed second fridays are often a touch bigger than Tuesdays recently.
