I wasn’t sure if you’d be familiar with the reference. I guess internet culture is global 😛 

I just did for the effort. I have no idea what it means.

can Sat hit 77-78?

Not based on any data, but I have been thinking under 5% sat growth for a while now, so $73M ish may be.

Are there any 'over $1 billion domestic' club here. We need over 3.7x but that's certainly not an unthinkable one imo.

$122m OD, amazing.  It's basically going to gross more in one weekend than the Amazing Spider-man 2 did in its entire lifetime domestic. Heck, it should even get close to the overall domestic gross of The Amazing Spider-man which did $262m domestic.

 

If the arrangment between Sony and Marvel continues, Marvel really re-negotiate the 25% box office or whatever it is they get from these movies. 

 

I still remember the absolute negativity around the Amazing Spider-man series.

Meh, was off a bit, but also on these weekends they tend to make the numbers whatever they want.  It isn't an accident that the preview was a perfectly round $50m and now a somewhat similar $71.5m and $121.5m number.  

[Issac Newton]

$130K less than Free Guy 😬

There's no IMAX/PLF anymore. Theater chains really need to have 2+ IMAX theaters at this point, because they're the only places people are going out to see movies these days.

 

Well, when you open so low, and a $270M opener opens after you, it doesn't matter if you have PLF, no one is seeing your movie, or any other movie, this weekend...

 

TFA pt #2 Xmas season is coming - it's a wave at this point (I predicted it, but I'm still shocked to see how friggin' high it's gonna be - it may be TFA for real vs just in the ratios)...

Just a rumour for now. Hopefully that’s all it is, but it is looking unfortunate. 

here (Slovakia) we are in second week in lockdown, cinemas closed at least till the end of year
official date for Spiderman is 15 january

[Krissykins]

Absolutely huge for Spider-Man! 

[Olive]

 Spider-Man: No Way Home also gets a huge hug from moviegoers with an A+ CinemaScore; the best grade ever for a live-action Spider-Man, and the second for the franchise counting the Oscar-winning animation movie, 2018’s Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.

Damn was really hoping this could take a swing at Infinity War’s Sat. Fantastic numbers regardless, I’m sure the boosted holiday weekdays will come into play to make up the difference. Still hoping for $250m+, what a rebound this weekend is.

[Assassin]

A+ CinemaScore per deadline.

 

[Joyous Legion]

Definite recommend up to 91%, the A+ was completely expected.

[TwoMisfits]

Friday didn't change too much demo wise...from Deadline (who says  $242M–$247.5M+ for the weekend)...

 

"Updated Comscore/Screen Engine PostTrak exits still show 5 stars from general audiences with 96% positive, a 91% definite recommend with kids under 12 giving the movie a 98% grade.  The 18-34 demo is largely responsible for the success of this blockbuster, showing up at 70% with Men under 25 at 38% (97% grade), Men over 25 at 25% (96% grade), women under 25 at 22% (95% grade) and women over 25 at 15% (now a 92% grade). Updated diversity demos are 32% Caucasian, 30% Latino and Hispanic, 17% Black and and 14% Asian."

That number is laughable. It would require a flat Saturday and 25-30% drop on Sunday.

[wildphantom]

So let me get this straight….
A movie opens two weeks into December, and is the biggest grossing film of the whole year after its opening weekend?!
