That 4pm start time changes things...

That's really good. Would probably point to 50M or something

[filmlover]

Don't see how this comes below $45M with that number.

[Ezen Baklattan]

Goddamn, that number is way better than presales numbers seemed to indicate. Walkups must have been huge.

[narniadis]

Yup, definitely points to 45-50m with the 4pm start. 

Also shows that MTC1/2 slightly over indexed.

What about walk up king Black Christmas?

Either there is info we arent privy to or he is being way more conservative than usual lol 

[a2k]

Don't know why to be more conservative than

4.7

14.10 (3x previews; 18.80 od = 4x previews)

19.04 (+35%)

12.94 (-32%)

= 50.78 ow (10.8x previews)

Honestly I could see it challenge $60m for the weekend, but it would have to play REALLY well to families tomorrow.

Going after young females, Universal/Blumhouse has Black Christmas in roughly 2,500 theaters today with an eye on $10M-$12M. We hear at this early part of the morning that the Sophia Takal-directed feature made $300K in previews (Uni hasn’t published their figure yet).

Glad if it did well, saw the movie few days ago, it was really fun, a good sequel

I think the low presales was just a matter of people forgetting it was on the horizon. I saw it yesterday at a 4 PM Dolby show, and the 30-ish people there all seemed to really enjoy it (no kids either)

It has to be better than that? What’s with this part?

“The pic’s exits were awful last night with 1 star on PostTrak and a 29% definite recommend. Make-up was 54% males/46% with 45% under 25/55% over 25.“

It means the movie sucks

Frozen2

1.76 thu (deadline), 347.36

 

4.93 (+180%)

10.1 (+105%)

7.07 (-30%)

= 22.1 (-37.15%), 369.5

 

369.5 + 22.1*4.0 = 458 dom (3.52x multi)
