Maxmoser3 Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Just now, Valonqar said: Considering how under-promoted and basically dumped by its studio Crawl was, it's definitely overperforming. Nice weekday holds, low theater loss, hopefully soft drop this weekend. It’s performing a lot better than other films that had more marketing but had a goofy plot.

baumer Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 There are three theaters in the city I'm in right now, which is London (2 hours west of Toronto) in Canada. Granted there's only 400,000 people here but all six showings to once upon a Time in America were sold out last night. I think we're going to be in for a pretty decent preview number. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say that's likely...but it is a spring movie vs a summer one, so better weekend holds in spring since weekdays are so light...I mean, Beauty was at $319M after that 2nd weekend...even if TLK comes in at $70M, it would be at $345M after 2nd weekend, so it would have extended its 1st weekend BO lead, even coming in $20M lower on a 2nd weekend (if that happens)... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of reactions but 100% this. Added by TLK having larger previews also. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLK M-Th $83.5m while BATB only $53.9m. Audience share on the weekend is higher outside of summer/Christmas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedijake Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Thanks for the numbers Charlie. So a 60% drop for TLK is possible, but more likely 58-59%. I move from predicting $630-$650 million for TLK to ending up neck-and-neck with Incredibles 2. $605-$610 million IF TLK ends up less than $80 million this weekend. If the number ends up closer to $75 million it will struggle to reach $600 million. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdsacken Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 (edited) I'm thinking low 600s, could he lower or could be 650. Long way to go. Edited July 26, 2019 by cdsacken 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo1500 Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 (edited) many of the low-ballers were inside this club and it's unfortunately going down Monday-tuesday as the lion king is running at a pace I didn't even see it coming. TLK will cross 1.1B in only 10 days of it's release @narniadis, @TwoMisfits and trolls like @cannastop It's over guys Give it a rest Also honorable shout out to baumer...

AlexMA Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 (edited) Well based on those numbers I can definitely tell you it's not going to do the numbers Deadline was pitching a couple days ago (90+). Was hoping for 85 this weekend but I was also ready for 75, it is what it is, it will make the difference with weekdays. Next week will give us a much better picture regarding Lion King's legs. Toy Story 4 still over Toy Story 3 and Far From Home still just below Homecoming (but not by much) and Endgame, no idea what that's all about but I'm pretty certain Disney are going for that sweet round 2.8er. Oh and Aladdin being Aladdin once again. Did it make it already to 1 billion or is it this weekend? It's possible it could have made it yesterday, but it could also just as well be today. I wasn't ready many trades yesterday and today, anyone have any idea if it did it? (I know Spider-Man did it, that one I got as it was everywhere) Edited July 26, 2019 by AlexMA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, international numbers haven't been tallied each day. Only the domestic. So the additional numbers added to Aladdin's WW are only coming from domestic until the weekend when they report the overseas numbers. So it could potentially already be there.

That's what I was thinking, it might already be there, either got there yesterday or today. And with Lion King and Toy Story 4 following very soon (the first obviously quite a bit sooner) that's 5 out of their 7 total 2019 releases over $1 billion worldwide. Not gonna check, but I'm pretty sure that's a record. Oh and one of the two that won't make it to $1 billion is a documentary (Penguins) while the other is Dumbo. They have THREE, yes, that's right, just 3 more movies left to release this year, Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, Frozen 2 and Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. Two of those are guaranteed to also score over $1 billion worldwide, so that will be 7 out of 10 releases over $1 billion each. As for the other, well unless Maleficent 2 is some kind of masterpiece with incredible WoM you know that's doing Dumbo numbers. Mickey Mouse is pretty much DESTROYING the competition this year at the box office with just 10 things they're putting out in theaters, that's half or even less than the competition while making probably twice as much from ticket sales.
