Cineplex updated their showings for this weekend and coming week, which happens to be March break here for most schools in the area. For whatever reason, they're going in pretty hard for Mummies. It seems to be in every major theatre, bumping Puss in Boots out of many, or at minimum just to matinees in bigger theatres.

 

I'm not sure if its getting a similar push in the states. All reports are that this is a direct to DVD quality. But it fills the void of zero kids films for months.

 

It actually already came and went in the US! Had a release in about 200-something theaters starting on Feb 24, WB didn't report any box office numbers for it though.

I thought it was supposed to be released a few weeks ago, but it's not showing anything for its domestic run. But, WB not reporting it would explain it i guess, but, not sure why you'd bother to even hide it. It is what it is.

A huge jump in presales today, mainly in the outer Orlando chains. Two showings in Kissimmee Florida went bonkers today. A couple of group sells and a new showing has helped numbers a lot. Too early to tell if strong social media reactions are responsible for the suburban/rural boost. Will wait for tomorrow's numbers to make a proper conclusion.

Would be nice if Shazam! defied the odds and was another solid performer for 2023. Given its more family-friendly nature compared to other comic book franchises it wouldn't surprise me if it took advantage of the empty market for that audience until Super Mario.

You were among the first to believe in Creed 3 overperforming, so I have high hopes your prediction pans out.

Personally I think Shazam's doomed. The hype is not there. 

[cooldude97]

Shazam? more like shazdon't

[stripe]

 

Sad that Shazam! presales are not stronger. It would be great to have four weekends in a row with 40M+ openings. Maybe even 6 weekends if D&D surprises.

 

When does D&D presales begin?
