Uncharted Greater Philadelphia Area Seat Report T-20 and Counting

	Sellouts	Showings	Seats Sold	Total Seats	Perct Sold
TOTALS	0	53	78	9757	0.80%

 

Comp

0.146x of F9 T-20 (1.04M)

0.410x of The Suicide Squad T-20 (1.68M)

0.223x of Venom 2 T-20 (2.58M)

 

I'll admit I couldn't think of any good comps for this far out in a film's run, but I think these suffice fine? It's pretty all over the place in terms of numbers, but this was basically a soft launch two days before the official Sunday bow, so I guess it's a little silly to say anything definitive at this point in time.

Can happen but that's a lot. 15% of NWH will be big.

How about double Black Widow? More realistic?

 

TBH, I keep forgetting that people buy presales for more than just previews 🤣

Yeah that's what I am looking for. BW was ~150k tixs in 24 hours. NWH around 3M+.

 

Batman if do 300k will be big.

That is a fuck up by those theaters in Philadelphia, they are supposed to have shows greyed out until Sunday morning.  Shouldn't even be on sale yet.

Hmm. That is a good start. Can this pull a Sonic?

Theaters everywhere have showtimes for Uncharted live and ready. Either the chains got the wrong memo, some intern that wasn't working on Sunday just wanted to get the job over with, or some other third thing happened. 🤷‍♂️

Next weekend, Lionsgate hopes to lure people out with Roland Emmerich’s Moonfall and Paramount with Jackass Forever, both looking at low-to-mid teen digits, that is before their final week media blitz ensues.

‘Spider-Man’ Box Office: Despite Slow Weekend, Movie Chasing ‘Avatar’ – Deadline

[JonahVex]

I think Jackass will surprise and do 20-25m ow

[XXR & Friends]

I'll do a final (real) check on Thursday, but as of right now Moonfall has 43 tickets sold at my theater. Obviously I don't have a lot of comps but....

 

VS NWH Final
43 / 3545 = $600,000

 

VS The 355 Final 

43 / 31 = $485,000

 

Previews probably get to $1-1.5M and an OW somewhere in the $8-15M range.

Shit will get real if NWH beats both Moonfall and Jackass on superbowl weekend.

Super Bowl weekend is in two weeks (Death on the Nile/Marry Me) this year so it's certainly possible that No Way Home is making more than either of them over that frame if both really underperform next weekend.

Moonfall could be FG of this season.

Given the reviews, I doubt it. 😂

[filmlover]

Moonfall looks like it would've been a hit...25 years ago. Today? The mindless disaster movie is as "been there, done that" as any movie concept.

[Tokugennumataka]

2012 was a product of its time. It could never succeed now. Maybe a moderate success in the 90s but nowhere close to what it made in 09. At the polar opposite, Moonfall is arriving at the worst possible time for it.
