Still down a bit but this is the closest call I remember for a record. Just insane.

So it seem like if Mario managed to beat TS4, the movie will come very close to $100m.

How is your alternative content business under the sub-brand Cinépolis + Que Cine?

 

We’ve had very good results with alternative content, like the feature Demon Slayer: To The Swordsmith Village [anime is not traditional content in Mexico, so Cinépolis designates it ‘alternative’]. It is going to sell over a million tickets in Mexico. Anime is quite big in Mexico.

 

We also had the BTS concert event BTS: Yet To Come. I believe for the last concert we sold 400,000 tickets in four days just in Mexico, and 500,000 tickets in all of Latin America. Mexico was the second-largest market in the world for BTS, just after Japan.

Low initial show count for Guardians 3 right before tickets go on sale. Let's see if it can top Quantumania's previews.

 

There's a very popular saying that goes by "If the US gets a cold then Mexico is getting the flu" which sometimes I think applies in BO, and this may be one of those moments.

Who knew, Illumination is the new Thanos. Meanwhile, Mario must be laughing with his billion lc coins... wonder if Universal will do a press release when it reaches that threshold?

First time for a non-Disney title after Coco accomplished the feat for the first time ever 5 years ago.

I meant it as Coco was the first title ever to surpass $1B back in 2017 and it took over 5 years for a non-Disney property/co-production to do so.

1.618.295.627 / 23.418.403 admits

[Purple Minion]

$65.6M total for Mario, about 1,179M lc, good enough for #4 all-time. And still s bank holiday ahead.

 

Wow.

[Carlangonz]

As time goes by Endgame feels more and more likely. Anyway it's ending closer to it rather than TS4. $1.45B-$1.5 is the range.

[Carlangonz]

So upcoming days:

 

Surpasses The Lion King in admissions by Friday and Toy Story 4 right on time when Guardians open. 

 

In USD it seems locked to surpass Endgame and admissions is going to be a wild finish above Infinity War and potentially No Way Home's first run.

[Purple Minion]

If it reaches $1.5B it will become the #1 movie ever in USD, beating No Way Home's $81.16M cume. Unless ER suddenly plummets.
