ngl, not a great T-2.   Could have been higher, mind, but I am not counting a suspicious sellout. A 10pm 3D showing went from 1 ticket (out of 65) sold to sold out tonight.  Smells like an error, but it could be a group buying out a showing.  If it's still sold out tomorrow night, I'll go ahead and count it (I'll decide whether to back date those 64 tickets if it's still sold out tomorrow night). 

 

As it is, would have liked to see stronger sales even without that suspect sellout.  Just have to see if this was a blip or a sign of hesitancy on the GA.

 

EDITED NEXT DAY:  Was indeed still sold out, so updating this post for the historical record, as it were.

Went ahead and added that sellout and counted it toward yesterday's totals on my home sheet as it's still being marked as sold out on both Fandango and the corp site in question (I'll go back and edit the old post and the quote in this post in a while updated/edited now).  Still, kinda just treading water here.  Might be lucky to crack 6m with the direction Sacto is pointing.  Mind, there did seem to be good walkups at the EA showings, so that's something.  Just have to see what tomorrow brings.

Box Office Balancing Test: How Many Tentpoles Can Share a Weekend? https://t.co/xm2hw62cqE

I do think it's being a problem OS. 

 

Lightyear is having soft openings where it's released, and while i don't think it would have a TS performance anyway, i think having Top Gun and Dominion too strong simultaneosly is hurting it a bit. 

 

With high tickets price, 2 big movies already screening, Thor coming very soon, i think many people could decide to wait for Lightyear to hit Disney+.

The charts inside showing how much we're not even close to a stable box office environment again and how it's become typical for one movie to make the majority of the money for an entire weekend are sort of depressing tbh. The #5 movie this weekend will likely be making less than $2M. Blame it on the industry being hesitant about releasing anything that isn't a tentpole in theaters (something that's looking like it might extend throughout the rest of 2022) but still.

Not even gonna try for Nope.  The earliest horror I tracked was Black Phone that had 24 tickets sold in its first day.  Historically horror is not heavy on presales so I normally wait until the week before release to start tracking.  I'll keep it in the updates but probably no comps for a few weeks at least.

 

Thor 4 - 2 days comps

 - Eternals - 4.29x (40.73m)

 - Batman + EA - missed

 - No Way Home - .244x (12.19m)

 - Dr. Strange 2 - .546x (19.66m)

 

Too early to make any judgements.  It's a tough time right now with so much on sale and TG2/JW3 still huge.  This is also my first summer so I'm expecting presales pattern to be different.

Looks like Regal is getting in on the Black Phone EA with shows popping up for next Wednesday.  Yesterday's AMC EA did pretty well, so I guess that's why.

 

Lightyear (Thu) T-0 comps

 - Bad Guys - 7.94x (9.13m)

 - Encanto (Tue) - 3.81x (5.72m)

 - Sonic 2 - .983x (4.89m)

 - Jungle Cruise - 2.56x (6.82m)

 - Free Guy - 3x (6.62m)

 - Sing 2 (OD) - .427x (3.56m)

 

It's coming in right at Sonic 2 numbers at the moment, but comps are all over the place. I'll put my early prediction at 5.5m, subject to change when I run my final numbers this afternoon

 

Black Phone (Thu) T-7 comps

 - Ghostbusters - .204x (849k)

 - Morbius - .151x (858k)

 - Suicide Squad - .298x (1.22m)

 - Halloween Kills - .273x (1.32m)

IMO, the more important market stress test is next weekend, when you have these 3 titles, plus a horror/thriller and a biopic/adult drama being released as well. Can they all do well, bring in new moviegoers who may have skipped current releases, or do we see much more cannibalization, harsher drops, as a smaller audience pool is now being spread out?

 

Either way, we are assured to have the highest grossing 5th place movie of the post-pandemic era (currently Suicide Squad, at just under $7.5M)

This will be my final Thursday count, tomorrow will get one more count.

 

The numbers are what they are. 80  percent of Thursday was pretty much "no change, no change, no change" with a few numbers plugged in. Friday was a bit better but still for this area Im guessing the hope is wom/walkups. For a Pixar film these numbers seem kind of low at least up here, can't speak for down in the US

For LY, the good news is that these low sales total are very likely impacted by the late sales start: the growth rate in total sales over the last two days in the tracking samples (+45%-60%) is on par with Venom , which is itself already a significant outlier (due in part to a weird advance ticket sale pattern). Should see final ticket totals at least double from T-2, if not wind up closer to 2.5x.  For comparison purposes, walk-up heavy JWD was "only" about +75% on average from T-2 to T-1Hr last week

 

Doubling from here would point to a preview number in the low to mid $6M range, which could mean a sub-$60M OW on the low end, but suspect we're going to see that increase on the higher end, so $7M+ for Thursday still very possible, though $8M would take a lot

 

Also, for the Wed early access show, at least in my view, a 6PM start is terrible event time for a family to plan dinner around, unless you want to pay like $100 to eat at the theater itself

Another round of tracking updates, and still very solid growth rates for LY sales, on par with Venom. Barring stagnation today, looking to me like $7M in previews is happening, with $8M possible. Expecting ~75% increase from T-1 to T-1hr/final for most tracking samples, and an Alpha final total of around ~110K

 

Even if all that verifies, how it tracks over the weekend is creating some divergent opinions, whether the IM is below the 10x of TS4, or is less fan-heavy and backloaded with FD boost, matching or even exceeding the 12x IM of Sonic back in April

Are you talking about previews with early access or without? I can see 7 with EA but seems hard for pure Thu.

All in total, since that’s how they’ll be reported (and mostly being tracked). Agree that $7 for just Thursday is on the high end, but still possible, especially with how family movie comps are lacking

One thing I want to point out - Lightyear only has three PLF shows on Thursday night in this chain.  I haven't checked to see how widespread that is, but I know that number will jump way up on Friday.  Those three shows account for almost a quarter of its sales for tomorrow (201/823).  I'm expecting that to hurt previews a little, but help the IM.

 - FB3 - .702x (4.21m)

 - Bob's Burgers - 4.1x (6.15m)

 

I think it was a good day for Lightyear, but I was hoping for more.  Based on Santikos I'd have to guess somewhere in the 5m range for true Thursday.

 

Thor 4 (3 days) comps

 - DS2 - missed

 - NWH - .308x (15.41m)

The theater I'm seeing it at this weekend is showing definite signs of backloading with Saturday and Sunday having already sold a healthy amount of seats. Think everyone who's been eager to push the panic buttons might want to chill for a few days.

I saw Lightyear last night at an early screening and wom seems to be good. The adults liked it more than they were expecting, the kiddos liked it as much as they were expecting and some of the middle school aged kids were a little disappointed. It's definitely one of Pixar's weaker films and doesn't feel like it would be an entire generation's Star Wars like it was for Andy. But Zurg let me just say is an EXCELLENT villain. His Origins are extremely mysterious and his motivations are a good mold for Buzz Lightyear and their conflict reflect the themes the writers were going for well. I also saw this in IMAX and there were some good use of aspect ratio changes to make the space scenes feel bigger and more expansive.

possible it won’t make a profit theatrically, overseas numbers looking weak

Is WOM good in the US/CAN? WOM is not that great all over East Asia.

Too early to tell. Verified audience is at 100% though that is below 50 ratings.

Went ahead and added that sellout and counted it toward yesterday's totals on my home sheet as it's still being marked as sold out on both Fandango and the corp site in question (I'll go back and edit the old post and the quote in this post in a while updated/edited now).  Still, kinda just treading water here.  Might be lucky to crack 6m with the direction Sacto is pointing.  Mind, there did seem to be good walkups at the EA showings, so that's something.  Just have to see what tomorrow brings.

Nice start to the day, as all comps increased.  Let's see if it can keep up the momentum at the final report.
