Saudi Arabia All Time Opening Weekend Record beating TENET.

Woah, didn’t realize Tenet set this in the first place.   
 

I guess with continuing construction this record will be broken a lot in next few years?

F9 Saudi Arabia Midnights T-0 Day

Vox - 2017 admits on 119 shows (13 locs)
Muvi - 4328 admits on 113 shows (10 locs)

AMC - 523 admits on 24 shows (8 locs)
Cinepolis - 376 admits on 11 shows (2 locs)
 

Total - 7244 admits on 267 shows (33 locs)

Its weird that Muvi is so robust while Vox is just okay. I was looking at Muvi in noon, and thought wow, the openings gonna be great but Vox is relatively low. Muvi all first shows are basically full or sold out. VOX will have most of walk ins. There's one more chain Empire with 20 shows on 4 locs. That will have 300-400 admits, so 7.5k ish pre-sales.

 

Will be expecting 11-12K midnight shows admits i.e. $210-250K.

 

True OD can be may be $500-600K, weekend of $2-2.25M.
