You're doing a bit of spin yourself. It will only be off by about seven or eight million. Oh god forbid a movie is only eight million off after the second weekend from a movie that ended up earning 1.3 billion.

It is a big deal when the previous movie is heading into the holidays and will probably start outearning this one by about 10M every day for the next 8 days. TROS needed a bigger opening and better holiday holds to actually have a shot at matching that 1.3B earner. As it stands, 520 might be the target if it holds in January, and maybe 1B?

Something tells me you don’t know how the box office works this time of the year. That’s the only thing that explains this comment.

Steve Rogers is a draw.

Or is it the sweater ?

That’s a hell of a great number, especially considering how many theaters it lost.

DL: Theaters don't care that TROS couldn't match TLJ because they already earned huge money from popcorn and drank soda. And they are happy to let Disney have 95% box office revenue.

We'll have to wait to see how it does in the next weeks coming up. As of now you are being just a wee bit too dramatic.  No one expects this movie to catch 1.3b or even 1.2b.

26.2+25+20=71.2 TROS

11.7+12+11=34.7 😲 JUM

6+5.8+5.3=17.1 F2

 

It looks somewhat optimistic, especially for Jumanji. F2 also with a sub 10% drop, would be crazy.

2013 Dec 29 decreases were all closer to 20%.

Would be great if these numbers hold.

I guess Cats will lose a lot of theaters this week and KO will recover a lot of them

 

3380 theaters for a movie that is probably doing 2-3M next weekend is absurd

I thought Knives Out was  just ok. I'm surprised it's doing that good. Daniel Craig didn't have to do much sleuthing. It was more of a comedy.

He’s trying a neat trick.
