Saw that this movie, The Unbreakable Boy, is every day in the most anticipated charts of thenumbers.com so maybe this movie could be a small hit (hopefully?). If it's not too dark of course.

 

But yes, this year so far was - except for a few overperformances like Scream and Jackass - a pretty big letdown. We even don't get Friday estimates as it seems. Why did I wait 🥱.

I got the trailer before Sing 2, it's a heartwarming family movie in the Wonder mold. Like The Devil's Light (which ended up delayed to the end of the year on short notice), Lionsgate has been promoting it exclusively in theaters.

Santikos first run off to a mediocre start.  This is at 19hr mark, compared to my first Spider-Man run at 15hr mark.

 

Batman

Tuesday: 440/446 (1 show)

Thursday: 666/3,034 (25 shows)

Friday: 499/4,652 (27 shows)

 

Spider-man

Thursday: 11,929/19,326

 

Tues + Thurs comes out to .093x of Spider-man, or 4.64m.  I'm not even going to entertain that as a possibility.

Batman Tue + Thu is right around 10% of Spider-Man at this point (~5m).  Still not good.
