Today's will be akin to a 2nd monday with drops in the 60% range if not higher. Yeah. Expect Joker will have one of the lowest, in the 40% range, but we'll see some massive declines for the family films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Napoleon Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Dark Fate already showing signs of stronger legs than people expected. This is a good movie that audiences are loving, I believe word of mouth will carry it to an over $100 million finish. Hoping for much more than that, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do some people get work/school off on election days? There was definitely significant impact based on what I saw at AMC. Mal 2 sold 247% more tickets while last week was around 180%. Joker just about doubled last tuesday while this week it sold 143% more. May be people vote and then go to movies plus leverage the discount tickets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is a -31.5% Sunday and -72.5% Monday any special ? If you are referring to tuesday performance, I feel like they are quite misleading and very strong boost on that day are not in recent time a good sign at all, it show more the movie being considered by audience not worth paying full price more than good legs incoming, specially non family affair.

Do some people get work/school off on election days? I think it’s because some schools that serve as polling locations choose to have the day off so it’s not too crazy. Then a lot of parents probably take the day off along with their kids 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then a lot of parents probably take the day off along with their kids @Thanos Legion this, many districts especially in cities serve as voting centers and as craziness and security concerns have increased more schools have opted to close on voting days versus having the mix of outsiders and students. It didnt use to be this way say 15 years ago, but it has steadily increased this decade in particular. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

narniadis Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 (edited) I dont quite get the expectations for Joker, Mal2 and Addams. Especially with a holiday on Monday to mitigate Sunday a little bit. Showings getting cut I get and understand but those holds are worse than I would personally expect, especially for Joker.

kitik Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Count me as another who waited for Tuesday to see Terminator. Good movie, we both enjoyed it, but nothing great. Sadly it didn't really bring anything really new to the franchise. 1 hour ago, keysersoze123 said: What is crazy is elections happened in Virginia, Kentucky and Mississippi. Virginia should have some impact being close to DC. But Kentucky and Mississippi !!!! Elections were all over the country. Here in Ohio it was mostly city councilmen and school levies and stuff like that. Not national news, but some of it (especially some of the school funding votes) is legit important. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooper Legion Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 8 minutes ago, narniadis said: holds are higher than I would personally expect Do you mean the same thing by this as "drops are higher than I would personally expect?" To me a higher hold sounds like e.g. 80% hold (-20%) vs a 65% hold (-35%). Whereas a higher drop sounds like a smaller weekend. I think Joker, Mal, TAF, Harriet will all beat those BOP numbers but Doctor Sleep and Last Christmas will go under. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
