Friday (+150%)

 

Saturday (+70%)

 

Sunday (-35%)

 

This is very optimistic scenario considering schools are going so Sunday could fall more.

This is what it would do if it followed the PG13-rated A Quiet Place, which also opened on the first week of April last year.

A quite place was PG13

Was it really? Sorry I just assumed it would be, but then this is a perfect comparison then.

Or if it follows CA: The Winter Soldier which also opened the first week of April 5 years ago.

CA seems like a pretty good comp..... which sucks for Shazam.

If interested, in the General conversation thread are quite some pages about the yesterday's investor presentation at Disney, with lots of news about especially Disney+

Ahh yes, we all know how much Winter Soldier played like a family film.

Yeah, no matter if you compare to a recent film or 5 year old movie, it looks unlikely to do more than 22m. But we will see.

I am just using the likely percentage increase for FSS, not the whole week.

Shazam! hasn't played like a family film so far either.  If it had it's internal multi off previews would have been 15-25x.

 

It's o/w 9.05multi is lower than CA:TWS (9.4x) off a much higher preview number. and slightly higher than GOTG2 (8.7) with previews almost 3 times as big

Starting a bit concerned with this movie especially for something with A cinemascore. DC can't catch a break.

Pet Sematary grossed an estimated $1.23M on Thursday. 7-Day total stands at $31.12M.

Yeah that's not good. Makes 25 look super insanely optimistic. Not good.

In the Wednesday thread, I was told to expect higher Friday jumps than normal, because schools were in this week. Maybe Shazam! benefits from that and maybe it doesn’t. I hope Shazam can reach a decent multiplier off its opening week (2.7 -3.0). This DC can’t catch a break narrative is hyperbole beyond belief. Shazam! will make a profit- Also, I could have sworn that Aquaman made over 1B at the box office earlier this year. Did I dream that? 😂

For a lower budgeted superhero film, it's doing fine. The sequel and Black Adam will still happen.

[cdsacken]

I think some are complaining because it because WB screwed the DC film by not promoting enough. Yes it will make a profit but it appears it could be a very tiny one.

 

Let's hope it roars back on Friday for a solid weekend. Being at 92 million through Sunday would probably project to 145 total DOM or less

 

It's doing fine. Not a flop, not a big success just fine.
