MoM, Dominion and Lightyear should pass 750M lc, and I'm betting on one of them crossing 1 billion. I am not so sure about Minions 2 reaching those heights since it's been a loooooooong time since DS3, which barely improved on DS2, although ticket price inflation could help. L&T is a mystery, but should pass Ragnarok.

 

Dumbledore, Sonic 2 and Lost City have practically the same number of shows, with the Wizarding World entry keeping the premium formats. Children's Day is today and Labour Day tomorrow, it will be a close weekend.

As forecast, Sonic 2 increased in its fourth week, up 7% and jumping back to #1 with a great $18.1M total.

 

Dumbledore had a better hold than last weekend,  35% drop. Estimate total is $13.2M.

 

Lost City reached $3.3M, The Northman $2.4M and The Bad Guys $5.1M.

MTC2 added 4 new shows over 85% of occupancy from Friday to Saturday. From Saturday to Sunday it added 20! Its final days should follow a better trajectory than Infinity War. Can't see it missing $40M from previews.

MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS ADVANCED PRESALES. 2 DAYS BEFORE RELEASE. CINEPOLIS REPORT.

 

It's past above Infinity War with excellent sales that are now spreading well through matinees on Thursday. Previews are coming quite close to Endgame in both 10-cities and 12-cities comp. Expecting a final bump on Wednesday hours before they begin. Endgame closed with over 95% of market coverage. Currently Multiverse of Madness sits at 88% and aiming 92%.

 

  IW (T-2 Days) EG (T-8 Days) MOM (T-2 Days)
Total Shows (12 Cities) 1505 1970 1967 (+60)
Total Shows (10 cities) 1505 1831 1842 (+54)

 

Number of shows for opening day incl previews now at 5,758 versus 5,234 from No Way Home. Of course that one didn't hold previews or midnights so we'll see on Wednesday how close they end up.

 

CINEMEX REPORT

 

It grew 10.5% in shows compared to 10% from Infinity War at a similar point before release. It could still add 5% more. Major difference came on number of shows over 85% occupancy grew 55% compared to 45% from Infinity War which is now above Rise of Skywalker's final update just about 10 hours before release. Expecting Multiverse of Madness to be around 210-220 before previews kick in. 

 

Total shows

 

  IW EG TROS MOM
12 cities 1155 (+105) 1691 443 1283 (+123)
10 cities 1155 (+105) 1616 415 1211 (+116)

 

Breakdown

At the moment of my last report which was finished about 4 hours ago the number of shows with 50%+ of tickets sold at MTC2 represented 49.2% of the sample and now they have finally reached 52.9% becoming the 4th fastest preseller ever to reach such height only after Infinity War, Endgame and No Way Home. The final Star Wars trilogy reached it until only hours before its opening.

Crazy past 4 hours; I think the final figure of 210-220 shows nearly sold-out/sellout that I expected a few hours ago may come by 24-30 hours before opening.

As always I am able to make no sense of presales posts in Mexico. So like what is it looking for OD & weekend.

Massive pre-release trends. Is DS2 looking like a potential $20M, even $25M 5-day OW?

 

:insane:

Similar show count as Infinity War in both major chains with less tickets sold (for now) due to less fan-rush. Final hours stronger than Infinity War's along with walk-ups which are expected to hit hard. It's looking to fuel up around 70% of IW in admissions.

Previews: $45M-$55M

Thursday $105M-$115M 

4-Day OW incl previews: $470M-$520M

I expected 210-220 final sellouts/virtual sellouts from MTC2 but with 9 and a half hours to go it already sits at 231. Final two days have behaved less like Infinity War/Rise of Skywalker and more like Joker so indeed shows that it'll rely strongly on walk-ups; seeing it closer to the higher end of predictions. OD close to NWH's.

380 one hour before previews begin. Shall finish well above 450 as theatres keep adding shows for slots between 10PM and midnight. In overall ticket sales should be quite neck on neck with Infinity War. It seems like $60M+ in previews is on the cards.

Cinépolis (MTC1) going all in with 2,100 previews within 12 major cities and 7,800 shows for Thursday and just over No Way Home. Total screen count for the weekend is going above 5,500.

$3.5M as per Deadline :ohmygod:

Best results for previews ever! Well, that was quite an easy one because next were SoD and It 2 with $18M but is also No. 2 including midnights; above Infinity War -both adjusted and unadjusted- and only below Endgame.

Opening day fueled by holiday should take it somewhere between  ̶̶̶̶̶̶̶$̶̶̶̶̶̶̶8̶̶̶̶̶̶̶.̶̶̶̶̶̶̶8̶̶̶̶̶̶̶M̶̶̶̶̶̶̶-̶̶̶̶̶̶̶$̶̶̶̶̶̶̶9̶̶̶̶̶̶̶.̶̶̶̶̶̶̶8̶̶̶̶̶̶̶M̶̶̶̶̶̶̶ ̶̶̶̶̶̶̶w̶̶̶̶̶̶̶h̶̶̶̶̶̶̶e̶̶̶̶̶̶̶n̶̶̶̶̶̶̶ ̶̶̶̶̶̶̶i̶̶̶̶̶̶̶n̶̶̶̶̶̶̶c̶̶̶̶̶̶̶l̶̶̶̶̶̶̶.̶̶̶̶̶̶̶ ̶̶̶̶̶̶̶p̶̶̶̶̶̶̶r̶̶̶̶̶̶̶e̶̶̶̶̶̶̶v̶̶̶̶̶̶̶i̶̶̶̶̶̶̶e̶̶̶̶̶̶̶w̶̶̶̶̶̶̶s̶̶̶̶̶̶̶ 

Nvm, Cinépolis is down so let's go $10M+ or die.

$8M OD including previews. Quite underwhelming after previews and even considering it was a holiday; represents a worse multi from previews/midnights than Endgame and Infinity War despite surpassing the latter and getting close to the former.

BO Pro is reporting 9th biggest day ever excl previews so is indeed around $90M and below Endgame, No Way Home, Infinity War, Toy Story 4, Civil War, The Lion King, Age of Ultron and Batman v Superman.

I think low to mid 20s for the 4-Day + previews sounds right. Fri will deflate so it's up to Sat and Sun.
