mexico Mexico Box Office | Inside Out 2 now #3 all-time, $82M; loud $4.7M OW for A Quiet Place: Day One

[Purple Minion]

Deadline: Fast X logged the second best launch for the film overseas at $16.7M. When excluding previews, that’s 45% above F9 and 15% above F8. This is the No.5 biggest Universal opening weekend of all time, No.3 biggest opening of the franchise, No.2 biggest of the year (behind Mario), and No.5 since the pandemic.

So-so final boost but still boding for a $120M opening. ER taking a hit this weekend but still would be a $6.5M opening.

My current concern is allocation in several locations. Sales may be stalling in coming days because the best seats at several locations are already gone and is unknown if Sony will allocate more these days or they'll wait at the very end.

 

IMAX and subtitled versions are selling extremely well and no 3D for this one so ATP will be lower than Mario's. Matinees also selling pretty well everywhere which is insane considering there's no holiday; reminiscent of Toy Story 4 and Joker. 

 

Even tho I'm not sure yet if it'll get $100M opening day, it does seems like it'll top Fast X's $75M in order to reach $80M and so the second highest OD of the year without any sort of previews or midnights!

Disney/Pixar animation are starving for a hit. Imagine if it opens at #2 behind Fast X's second weekend.

[Purple Minion]

CANACINE is showing 4M tickets sold for Fast X OW (including previews). More than all previous movies except F7 and F8. It will need a 4x multiplier to become the most attended movie of the saga.

Is quite likely to be honest. I can see Mermaid pushing for $130M-$135M but race would be close anyways.

 

Mermaid is looking at 2,800 screens which is lower than previous live-actions and similar count as Fast X this weekend. Fast X is keeping all the 4DX, Mermaid getting PLFs and both of them are sharing IMAX.

 

Guardians may be taking the bigger hit; from locations I'm seeing is already getting the same shows as Mario. Won't get tired of saying Disney truly fucked up the release; an extra weekend could've made a big difference.

Only two locations comps

Multiverse of Madness OD incl previews (T-6 Hrs before previews) - $47M-$48M

Super Mario Bros OD (T-22 Hours) - $85M

Super Mario Bros OD (T-8 Days) - $156M (!) 

 

Sales are starting to slow down as expected due to limitations in capacity from at least 3 locations and premium formats at prime shows pretty much done. Don't think Sony is adding more shows until next Monday so final three days are going to see big jumps.

 

I'm going to take a few more hours on The Little Mermaid before final counting.

Added 900 in 2 days. %occupancy is already very high and not sure how many new shows will be added. Also unclear about data.

 

Would guess 15K+ final easily, may be even 20K. $60M+ OD possibly $80M.

 

$300M+ weekend, may be $350M

Yes. I have it on $80M OD and $320M OW. 

[Carlangonz]

Rise of Beasts is starting at a larger set of screens than Spiderverse which leads me to believe people are Sony weren't expecting it to be this massive or just a dumb decision which won't surprise me. 

 

I'll see how first hours for Transformers go but perhaps won't take data until T-7. I'm actually considering not running a full presale cycle for anything but The Flash and maaaaybe Barbie this summer. Can't see anything else cracking $400M or at least not without a great wom.

Not bad weekday figures for Fast X.

 

Two families in a box office feud: Under The Hood vs. Under The Sea; the Fast vs. the Curious. Who will be on top come Sunday?

 

Here's the largest Disney Remake OW:

The Lion King	354,159,098	5,552,162
Beauty and the Beast	225,630,523	4,135,198

So Fast X could surpass $600M by Sunday and becoming No. 2 this year. From what I'm seeing WOM is quite good for Little Mermaid which is something it needed. 

I'm keeping on check my expectations on Flash; at this point don't think it'll open higher than Spiderverse or at least not by a significant margin. Promotion is massive tho.

 

At least for YA audiences, Barbie kinda reminds me Beauty & the Beast but a wider male appeal. We'll see if Warner can holp up to it.

Barbillion getting closer.

Better than expected. Weekend pre-release is key but should be deflated this time nevertheless see it pushing above Guardians' comp.

 

Looking at Transformers I think I'm not going to take anything until T-7. Quite meh at the moment.
