I think Angelina's movie could be Live Disney's real surprise. I think it's up to Disney. All material released so far is been good and release date couldn't be more perfect: it receives a market starving for a big family film and is one month away from Frozen 2. Add a marketing campaign as aggressive as TLK or Aladdin and there you go. 3 hours ago, danhtruong5 said: Endgame really is in trouble now. Nah.

There's no 4Q franchise like Toy Story: it draws kids like the DM franchise and carries nostalgia for adults like SW in US/Europe. Same story in pretty much all of Latin America. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purple Minion Posted July 15, 2019 Author Share Posted July 15, 2019 (edited) TS4 has the next 4 weekdays to reduce the admission gap with Endgame. With same drop as weekend's, it would add 500K tickets, earn close to $1.75M (33M lc) and pass 1.3B lc by Thursday. TLK opens on Friday and I'm seeing a LOT of screens everywhere. Is it showing earlier in other Latin American markets? That would give us a good idea of its performance here.

Legs for TS4 have been tremendous considering its OW. But legs for admissions have been even better. It's running better than I2 in lc (2.78x vs 2.76x) and on par in admissions (3.08x) and upcoming schedule is very similar: - In its 5th weekend; I2 had to deal with HT3 and fell nearly 70% but then it bounced the week after -with a drop in the 40s- due to no competition. This is happening to TS4 with TLK opening in 3 days but it has no competition next weekend. Considering this, is completely rational to expect TS4 keeps performing like I2 which would take it past 25M admissions in the end (0.2M above EG). The key TS4 needs in order to come close to beat Endgame in admissions is have amazing late legs (like I2) or get super cheap tickets (like EG). 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlangonz Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 (edited) Note to The Lion King forecast: Presales are hard to compare: they’re far behind Woddy & Buzz but they’re well above Fallen Kingdom and since day one they’ve been selling faster and better than Aladdin and on par with Incredibles 2. Nevertheless comps come with many problems: neither of the above mentioned titles held midnights or opened on holidays, Jurassic World opened on a Thursday and Incredibles 2 held Thursday night previews but at the same time presales were more front-loaded and played more in the lines of a superhero title rather than a family movie; the last thing this is something I didn't put much attention to when did my forecast for Toy Story 4 in part cause I thought it would skew older like I2 but that's when I realized there's no 4-Quad like TS and I'm not sure TLK can reach those heights. With the precedent of movies like Toy Story 4 and the Jurassic World entries being extremely back-loaded compared to presales this one could climb to somewhere between mid-high 200s and even come close to the magic land of $300M+. I'm playing with mid-high 200s in case anything is off with walk-ups. Edited July 17, 2019 by Carlangonz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple Minion Posted July 17, 2019 Author Share Posted July 17, 2019 Mis antenitas de vinil also point to mid-200s lc. Sunday hold will be key. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlangonz Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 I was doing some digging and found that July's biggest OD still belongs to DH2. $74.2M back in 2011 which is huge because it was the biggest OD of all-time until F7. TLK on its way to break the record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlangonz Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Final hours before opening TLK is gaining a lot in sales. Midnights were nothing like a SH title in the recent days but they're experiencing huge jumps the last hours. I'll wait to see results of Chile, Argentina and Brazil tomorrow before correcting my ceiling but with midnights picking great steam and Sat/Sun presales pointing incredible we're going to witness another massive weekend. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
