Have to bring it up with VA not me as to why he had it as an example. Still works for Candyman, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin46 Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 2 minutes ago, Porthos said: Universal? Wants to establish Peacock (Premium), presumably. Creators? Well in the case of Halloween Kills, I don't like to speculate, but getting all da money upfront is always an incentive. And if it keeps them in Universal's good graces when it comes to Halloween's End? Well, there's a calculation to be made here as well. Yeah clearly its to push Peacock for more subs. Its just that horror and its sequels are performing well and it seems the wrong genre to target for subs as it cannibalizes box office to much. The Boss Baby I can understand but not this 1. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exomassey Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 For fun, I am just comparing Shang Chi’s run to the other two biggest September releases (It 1 and 2). Obviously it way behind the 1st It but performing pretty closely to It 2. Actually just grossed 100k more today than It 2 did in Sep 2019 with no pandemic and other circumstances. I am not sure Shang Chi Will increase 220% like It 2 did on its 2nd Friday though lol. Maybe it will, fingers crossed. WOM seems fairly strong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WrathOfHan Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 4.3M (-7%) 9.5M (+120%) 14.3M (+50%) 9M (-37%) 32.8M Weekend, 56% drop Sounds about right. A better Friday increase could get this into a low-50s drop, but it's probably not dropping sub-50%. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might even go lower or we might be surprised. Let’s see, could be a big weekend for the Eternals release strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronin46 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 BO report has it down for 39.5m this weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie Jatinder Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 My initial expectations were 4.4 on Monday, so 4.6 is good. As for FRI bump I was thinking +150-170% earlier but now thinking may be +120-140%. Hoping for 38M weekend. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exomassey Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 I was hoping weekdays would be a little stronger going into the weekend. It’s not doing gangbusters overseas either. Without China, is 400m still possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the weekdays, I am going to assume that you are still somewhat new to tracking box office. The weekdays (Tuesday and Wednesday) have been fantastic, particularly when considering the effect of Covid on the box. Keep hoping for better numbers its good to be positive 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie Jatinder Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 400 is lock. 425-450 depending on if DOM end 240 or 260 & if the late additions like Indonesia, Malaysia can add like $10-15M. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
