BLACK WIDOW OPENING WEEKEND THREAD | 80M DOM, 78 OS, Disney PR - 60M Premier Access (aka we swear it's not a disappoinment)

[Krissykins]

That’s actually pretty good for The Forever Purge. It’s had some strong weekdays too. Looking forward to seeing a UK preview on Tuesday.

I have a similar wide range on Spider-Man. Either could be very good or just a disastrous mess.

BW OW: 87m (10m)

So, $13.2M True Thurs

$26.5M True Fri

 

I could see this miss $80M if it plays out Mortal Kombat style - rush of the fans on day 0/1 without the "norms" filling in the weekend...

 

We could see $23M Sun and $16M Sun for a Disney estimated $80M weekend that ends up about $78.5M...here's hoping that doesn't happen...I gotta think that kinda number is worst case...

A multiplier under 2? Seems a bit extreme. 
 

Still on track for $85m IMO.

"Black Widow was guy heavy at 58%, with 52% under 25 and close to half the audience between 18-34. Diversity demos were 46% Caucasian, 21% Latino, 16% Black, and 18% Asian/other. The pic played strong across the country with a notable turnout in the West. Imax and PLF repped over 30% of Black Widow‘s ticket sales so far."

 

For those wondering about audience breakdown - quite different from F9...

[TwoMisfits]

And weekend top 5 from Deadline - not horrible holds...(especially AQP2 - damn)...

 

"Weekend’s top 5 films according to Saturday morning estimates:

1. Black Widow (Dis) 4,160 theaters/Fri $39.5M/3-day $88.4M/Wk 1
2. F9 (Uni) 3,649 theaters (-554), Fri $3.37M (-60% from prev Friday)/3-day $10.4M (-55%)/Total: $140.9M/ Wk 3
3. Boss Baby: Family Business (Uni) 3,688 theaters (+44), Fri $2.8M (-64%)3-day $8.7M (-46%)/total $34.7M/Wk 2
4. Forever Purge (Uni) 3,058 theaters (+7), Fri $2.27M (-61%)3-day $6.8M (-46%)/4-day and total $27.5M/Wk 1

Joke aside im still happy with BW OW, Good number for The movie in pandemic time

Not a failure or disappointment but I can't say I am satisfied with the result since 100m is pretty much dead unless MCU's Saturday strikes back.

CM was more guy heavy, over 60%. International Women's Day drew 64% guy audience.

Pretty good number for BW. Highest OW during the pandemic. It should coast to 85+ weekend. In this current climate, that’s pretty darn good.
