As far as I can remember, RTH always includes previews in his Friday, so...

Yep.  That would point to a 12.7 True Friday or so.

9 pm Pulse continues to suggest 12-14. Even if it plays like Fallen Kingdom it will only get 17.2, and that particular comp suggested 9 million for the preview number. Really can't see DHD number being correct

woah, this was spot on bud

[Minnale101]

It’s definitely with previews included 

 

if thats godzilla number. Then big yikes 

 

might get 52-53 million

wait is that true friday, or also including previews

Usually from what I remember @RtheEnd means that with previews. Not sure, but I’d like to see him confirming that and telling me where Endgame is at so we can do a projection of where it’s heading after the theater count drop.

[DisposedData]

Yeah that's not good. Aladdin might actually take Saturday and Sunday.

RTH always reports Friday including Thurs previews from memory. So your club is looking more likely than not tbh.

I'm sensing a strange pattern here. Pennywise and Joaquin better watch out.

[Legion Again]

Aladdin is headed low-mid 40s if Rth number holds imo. Shot to win the pure FSS frame, but Godzilla TFSS should win out comfortably.

Previews were all almost identical, too...it could be the WB fanbase value (and throw in JW3, and maybe it's the spring non-Disney fanbase)...

 

I wouldn't be surprised if they all end up within $10-$20M of each other total DOM...

Shazam did 20.5 million Friday

 

detective Pikachu did 20.6 million Friday 

 

so 19 million could make it under 50 million. That was optimistic 52-53 million 

 

warner bros living in that number with its movies lol. 

 

It 2 and joker should be bigger here’s hoping 

 

 

[EarlyDeadlinePredictions]

Kong is winning for sure in the next movie.

[Blaze Heatnix]

That's not a good number for Zilla...Sub 50 million looks very real.

 

 

[Minnale101]

I mean Atleast detective Pikachu has excuse of having no imax  pld and movie release 3rd weekend of endgame which did 63 million 

 

detective Pikachu with imax and in May 31st or April 5th release date. Could of done 60 million ow 

[AndyChrono]

With that Godzilla number, I can't see it hitting 50m this weekend. Even with Wonder Woman bumps/drops (same weekend from 2017):

 

Thurs: 6.3m

Fri: 12.7m

Sat: 16.4m (+29.3%)

Sun: 13.8m (-15.6%)

49.2m OW

 

And that's using one of the best holding blockbusters in the last few years. Realistically it's probably going to end up in the 46-47m range. The 3-day FSS portion will probably come in under Aladdin.

If RTH’s number includes previews then it’s right in your range @Menor. Actually on the low end with a $12.7m true Friday. Deadline’s $24m OD would’ve been $17.7m true Friday. While the numbers aren’t great, it’s nice to see how accurate the Fandango presales tracker is. Worked last weekend and this weekend with two pretty different movies.

I swear I was kinda joking, lol

[Tentatek]

Pikachu had no imax screens and had to share most screen time with endgame. 

Domestic and overseas.

 

Pikachu later got released in imax only in japan. (2 weeks ago). It didn’t even open with imax shows due to Disney contracts with cinemas.

 

Both Shazam and Godzilla have most premium screens all to themselves.
