Holy shit. And China is typically frontloading central. What if this thing has actual great legs around the world???

Wednesday to Saturday is a 4 day holiday with no new significant movie opening. Hence the huge presales for the weekdays. It was expected that the weekday grosses will be big. Coming Sunday however is a work day just like this last one was so Sunday drop off is going to be big again. But yeah 500+ by Sunday seems likely in China

$257,698,183.00 $9,731,508.00 3.92% 365
Avengers: Endgame 4/27/2019 $357,115,007.00 $99,416,824.00 38.58%  

 

Endgame managed to eclipse Batman's % increase to hold the second of all time. RotJ's 60% record is one that will probably never be beaten. Right now it would take a film to open to 573m.

 

Also, because Endgame beat IW in 2 days, that means IW held the record for exactly one year.

 

(I think there was also a weekend where two different films crested the record, but I can't remember which it was.)

So basically in the 1990s the OW record was always held by a Batman or Jurassic Park movie. How very 1990s.

Unfortunately, David Robert Mitchell's UNDER THE SILVER LAKE didn't get a 2nd weekend in theaters, despite pulling in $17k per opening weekend.

First 150m second weekend. Let’s go.

Would be fitting after TA was the first to break 100M second weekend. 

 

I remember there were lots of back and forth debates on whether TA would be able to achieve that 100M feat considering how massive the OW was. Fun times.

Both Gremlins and Ghostbusters beat ET on the same weekend.

 

Also, check out TLK there. So huge.

 

Because originals are so much harder to predict, I'm really curious what will set the record next. It's PROBABLY going to be something animated, but who the fuck knows.

At weeends like this, maybe.

 

During the year... way too many releases 'eat each others up'

 

Less audience, roughly 5.5 times more movies released in 2018 in comparison to 20-30 years back

Looking forward to the weekdays.

 

This is my conservative take:

 

Mon.  31.6  (-65%)

Tue.   30.4  (-4%)

Wed.  21.8  (-28%)

Thu.   20.7  (-5%)

 

Weekdays:   104.5

 

 

Just enough to beat AOU in 7 days.
