Weekend Thread: Actuals - Terminator 29, Joker 13.5, Mal2 13.1, Harriet 11.7, Addams 8.3

Recommended Posts



This was the first Terminator after T1 to have a conventional FSS ow and it opened under Hustlers and DA. Those 2 films have a combined prod budget of under 40. 

 

T2 burnt off demand on weekdays (20.5 from Tue-Thu) and still did 32 FSS in 1991.

IIRC, Sean Bean’s death was the first time GOT really got into the pop culture conversation since all viewers were so shocked. The Red Wedding is when it went Supernova.

I remember the week after the red wedding happened, I dare say it helped, if not straight up kickstart the “reaction” video trend for not only tv shows but movie trailers as well. If you look up, a lot of YouTubers started doing reactions on movies and shows around 2013/2014.

AMC Update

 

Mal 2 way better than estimates. Drop in low 20's compare to yesterday and low 30'%s compared to last sunday. Joker is dropping like 33% from yesterday 28-29% from last sunday.

 

FYI these are raw ticket numbers. $ grosses have variables like children/senior tickets, % fo premium tickets etc. Mal 2 lost all Imax/PLF and so its avg ticket price will be lower. Plus its just one chain and so it could over/under index.

 

But I am sure Mal 2 will go up quite a bit from estimates. Joker may not move much may be a little bit to hit 14m if rest of the weekend do not go down(with actuals fri/sat grosses also change a bit).

When Joker gets to 1B, only January and September will be left without 1B grossers. I don't see that changing for a while since January will remain a dumping ground and September will mainly be for smaller budgeted movies to make profits by doing 250-400M WW.

 

I think Frozen is the only November release to make 1B WW despite November being home to so many big movies over the years. Frozen 2 might be second.

IT did 700m but WB failed to make IT2 attractive enough for an increase. Something big will release in September as well. Its just a matter of time. January is bit tricky as studios like to release blockbusters during the holidays but American Sniper was Yuge domestically. We need a OS friendly product that breaks out like Joker did. I am sure both months will have 1B grossers within next decade.

Technically American Sniper counts as a December release. Actual biggest January movie is Paul Blart Mall Cop with 146M Domestic.

Ah k remember in 2009 when people were shocked that Paul Blart Mall Cop outgrossed a Terminator film

Terminator Salvation had some hype. Initial tracking had it at 120m over 5 days. But the movie had horrible reviews and the buzz died by the time it released. That is what happens when you let a McG direct a movie like that.

Everytime I happen to stumble on that gem of trivia it cracks me up.... 11 years later and we still haven't gotten a bigger genuine January release.
