Just wait until Monday when Disney goes full Sarandos and tells us 559 million people are projected to theoretically watch at least 25 seconds of Shang-Chi by 12/12/21, like when NF released those Army of The Dead numbers.

Also I'm guessing Netflix will put out some remark that Red Notice is their most watched film ever (don't know how they will compare as they will be using the new hours watched metric) before then.

To be fair, the only surprising thing about Red Notice is that it started off with a traditional movie studio before Netflix ponied up. It seems made for the algorithm even more than most of their movies.

 

It seems impossible that any of the awards contenders will still be exclusively theatrical by the time the award ceremonies start. Maybe the late December releases, but that's it. Certainly a different business model than before...last year there were award shows and most titles were streaming and still it was a big no1curr.

A 62% drop for eternals would be relative decent all things considered, lets see how it will holds in the weeks ahead , i think that it will finish with 170-180 or so....

That would be a win.

the second weekend of Disney/Marvel’s Eternals didn’t implode, now on track for a -62% weekend, which is on the high end of where we were expecting it with $27.4M

I don't see how 7.8 lead to 27.4 weekend. More likely 24-25.

Trades are not putting that Sunday will drop more than usual but it can still get to 26m. +45% sat ,-39% sun.

[Legion Again]

I don’t see much impact on Sat in2010. Expecting north of 26.5 with a 40% Sun drop.

[john2000]

any sat numbers ? @charlie Jatinder @EmpireCity ?

Shoulda called the OG Asgard @RthBond    
 

 

not that there are any numbers worth having this weekend, I admit to some mild curiosity over Eternals and Clifford

Netflix has had this growing reputation of being garbage-pickers, a la taking other studios' rejected stuff. 

 

Bright and Army of the Dead were developed at Warner Bros. and Zack Snyder's Rebel Moon was his rejected Star Wars spin-off.

 

I know there are others. But those are the ones that come to mind.

Turned out it was his ‘Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure’.

Wow! The dog is on fire! +74% Saturday. Though if that weekend estimate holds, it would be only 35% drop for Sunday. Clifford would be doing better than any other movie in 2010 in similar Veterans Day settings...

 

		Movie	Distr	Gross	%YD	%LW	Thr	Per Thr	Total Gross	D
-	(2)	Clifford the Big Red Dog	Paramount Pi…	$7,380,000	+74%		3,700	$1,995	$17,200,775	4
-	(-)	The Souvenir Part II	A24	$5,473	+24%	-68%	42	$130	$9,877	16
		2		$7,385,473

 

I think there is demand for a heartfelt family dog movie in these times. I mean just seeing the trailer makes you feel good.

That’s not bad for Clifford really. Performing in line with Addams Family 2, which was available at home, but at a higher cost. 

[wildphantom]

You can bet Disney is relieved they made the theatrical only call on Encanto with these Clifford numbers. Very promising. 

[filmlover]

Clifford is probably doing as well as it would have in any circumstance. The performances for Encanto and Sing 2 are what studios are really going to be looking at to see how high a family movie in the pandemic era can go.

NTTD did well too on Sat:

More than well actually. Fri +41% & Sat +44%. Probably -40%+ drop today but in any case great legs.

I mean, it's not hard to beat a movie that had no audience at all.
