It seems like it will be too close to call using estimates, we'll have to wait for the actuals on monday 😒

Yup! As always thanks for the great info. 

Next Friday will be fun to follow as films over recover from the 31st but then have normal Saturdays.... all the new posters / uninitiated will be wondering what the heck happened 🤣

Like in 1-3 November 2013 right ? 

But Gravity and other movies still increased in the same way on Saturday like in the previous weekend although of course Thu-Fri increase just 118% rather than 140-160% in previous weekend because obvious reason.

Yes, family films get decimated on the 31st - hence why studios hate it being on the weekend and they over correct the day after. One of my faves has always been High school Musical 3..... massive drop on its Friday of weekend 2 due to Halloween and a massive increase on Saturday to make up for it. 

It all balances out, just makes the day after seem odder than normal.

OUATH will climb past Shazam's 140.3+ on Dom charts thanks to the expansion but stay behind Pika's 144.1 with ease.

 

------

 

150 looked locked for Shazam after the 3rd weekend and was making a play for 160 IMO, but then AEG followed. Was 29.6 away from 150 after a 16.5 weekend, so needed just 1.8x the 3rd weekend more.

 

Adding 2.2-2.3x the 3rd weekend would have been average going by it's reception, levity and 3 week trending -

120.4 + 16.5*2.2 = 156.7

120.4 + 16.5*2.3 = 158.4

EDIT: 10% more dom and OS would have given Shazam 154.4 dom + 245.6 os = 400.0 ww ..400 to the point.

It'll do it by this time next week. Just need to get past A Separation (7.1m) to become the biggest grosser there since Pan's Labyrinth and The Lives of Others (the latter of which it'll also pass in November).

It actually fared better than I thought it would. Could've gone the route of Suspiria and just withered upon expansion.

It should easily cross that it'll probably get 1000+ theaters next week.

A24 was definitely smarter than Amazon., better to make as much money as it can during the spooky season being that it's so niche.
