Weekend thread (3/11 - 3/13) | The Batman 66M. 50% drop, 2nd-biggest second weekend for WB | Uncharted 9.25, BTS 6.85, Dog 5.35, NWH 4.07

Definitely think we would've seen 29m+ if not for the weather. Oh well, it's still a great number and hopefully will result in a soft Sunday drop to still hit or get very close to that 67m mark.

[AdrianL]

51% drop if Sunday drop is around 30% from a 28m Saturday. Really great #

[Tokugennumataka]

Can see 42M+ next weekend. 300M falls during that same frame.

Uncharted locked to do 3x with this brilliant hold. 2022 is off to a great start.

Headed for $60 million and a 4x multiplier.

Saw turning red in a theater today with @Ezen Baklattan and @Kvikk Lunsj

Those are some fantastic holds for basically everything.

Tbh i think it is. 

 

NWH is a rollercoaster generational movie with every cameos people want it to have, i have no surprise seeing everyone freaking out about it. 

 

The Batman is a way longer, moody, somewhat demanding movie that doesn't trully rely on anything outside of it's own story. So i was pretty surprised by the equally good reception.

Agreed. No Way Home is scoring highly for different reasons to The Batman. Like the cameo’s. The Batman could be nominated at some awards shows for things like production design, cinematography, score, make up etc.

What’s with the aggression?

I noticed a bit of that in another thread too.

I’m right here. Hi

I’ve seen some good early reviews for The Lost City out of SXSW last night.

2.0 for NWH?

Usually NWH has bigger jumps on Saturday than Dog.

To formalize this observation a bit:

	NWH Sat %	Dog %	uncharted %	nwh%/dog%	Nwh%/uncharted%
3/12/22		169.8%	164.9%
3/5/22	192.0%	170.0%	164.0%	113%	117%
2/26/22	212.0%	193.0%	181.0%	110%	117%
2/19/22	182.0%	147.8%	139.4%	123%	131%

Sat bumps are weaker OW, so I wouldn’t pay too much mind to 2/19. The other two are pretty consistent. Uncharted and dog are identical bumps as last Sat per EC’s latest updates, so Occam’s razor suggest 92% for NWH for 1.84M. That would be disappointing without the snow but with it, harder to judge. I would hope for perhaps a 25% Sun drop to a 4.2M wknd (7% drop) but more conservatively perhaps 4.1M (9% drop).

I'll take anything over 4.1. 4-4.1 is in that grey area, inconclusive to say it lands in the top 10 13th wknds.

Which movie has most Weekends in Top 5?

[BadOlCatSylvester]

Are we going to get the weekend estimates an hour earlier now?

If you’re in a region that didn’t just observe daylight savings, then it will be an hour earlier in local time yeah.

E.T. with 27
 

For the 21st century, Croods 2 with 17 then NWH with 13 then Avatar with 12. Some obvious caveats apply. 

[wildphantom]

I’m glad Uncharted has held up well. It’s a fun family movie that never deserved the middling critical score it got. 
Is it great? No. It’s definitely not even remotely bad though.
