Does this mean TGM will officially be the first film ever to have a $5M+ gross for 30 days?

Oo this would be an interesting stat to confirm if true.

Really excited to see how well TGM does over the 4th of July weekend. 
 

It had Memorial Day, Fathers Day and 4th of July to boost business. Good stuff!

If we're talking all days 5M+ during the films run - then no. However, if you meant consecutive days (from opening) at 5M+, then I believe this is accurate.

 

Due to a combination of a high opening, strong legs, and summer weekdays, it will be the first film to hit 30+ consecutive days at 5M+. It looks like it will finish at 31 days (on Sunday). Where do we think it will end in terms of total number of days 5M+?

 

I only checked all of the films that grossed $335+ million on the all-time list - so I could very well be missing films from the lists below (and welcome any corrections) - but I doubt I'm missing anything that also hit 30+ consecutive days:

 

Number of Days with 5M+ Grosses

1. Titanic — 46
2. Avatar — 44
3. Star Wars: The Force Awakens — 30
4. Frozen — 28
5. Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle — 27
6. Jurassic World — 27
7. Black Panther — 27
8. Spider-Man: No Way Home — 27
9. Incredibles 2 — 26
10. Star Wars: The Phantom Menace — 25
11. The Avengers — 25
12. The Dark Knight — 24
13. Avengers: Infinity War — 24
14. Toy Story 3 — 24
15. Finding Dory — 24

Consecutive Days from Opening with 5M+ Grosses

1. Top Gun: Maverick — 31 (projected)
2. Avatar — 26
3. Jurassic World — 24
4. Star Wars: The Force Awakens — 24
5. Toy Story 3 — 24
6. Finding Dory — 24
7. Incredibles 2 — 24
8. The Dark Knight — 20
9. Star Wars: The Last Jedi — 20
10. The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King — 19
11. The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers — 19
12. Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle — 19
13. Star Wars: The Phantom Menace — 19
14. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story — 19
15. Shrek 2 — 19
16. The Lion King — 19
17. Despicable Me 2 — 19
18. Spider-Man: No Way Home — 19

Again, please let me know if there are any films I'm missing (that grossed less than $335M on the all-time list); I've checked everything $335M+.

 

Peace,

Mike
