white people going to see Top Gun isn't surprising given that right wing media appropriated the movie to own the libs

 

lol at Batman's audience being almost 70% male

 

 

 

Most of the crwod at my batman showing where like high or drunk guys from like 15-35 lol 

 

Was really annoying to deal with that for 3 hours

That was OW only....TGM even though celebrated by Conservatives catered to liberals too....without attracting these and neutral audience it couldn't have touched 600m

Ah, I see it now, and I’d bet that’s a typo (69%?)

 

Friday Update

Mostly guy-skewing last night for Rise of Gru, however, it’s expected that moms will turn out. Those under 25 were 70%. Boys dominated those under 12 at 60%.

 

Saturday Update

In Comscore/Screen Engine PostTrak exits, audiences gave Rise of Gru a very good 87% positive, 71% recommend, while kids under 12 gave it an 86% positive, 62% recommend. The animated pic is mom-leaning, as we expected, with 51% females, 75% under 25. Extremely impressive here is the turnout of 13-17 year olds at 43%.

 

Monday Update

However, Rise of Gru did attract a massive under-25 demographic at 89%. Even more impressive is how Universal made a brand that was unhip, hip again for the 13-17 crowd, who showed up at 34%.

 

If 13-17 declined from 43% to 34% from Sat to Mon, there's no way under 25 went up from 75% to 89%

That's not to say the TTT’s didn’t give a big boost to the OW, but they weren’t the majority of it 

 

Maybe it's a typo, but the whole paragraph expounds on the massiveness.  And Deadline hadn't used the word "massive" until Monday for explaining the demo results.  And it would not be a surprise that Sunday might have been dominated by teens/young adults, especially late - college students are prime Sunday night attendees in the summer...

 

But whether it's 69, 79, or 89, well, it was massive and the point stands - Minions and Sonic OWs were impressive not b/c of family turnout, but b/c of 13-25 turnout.  Those movies didn't have much better family turnout, if at all by revenue, than Lightyear.

 

That said, the legs of those movies will probably be dominated by families, and we'll see how high those can now go for Minions...

1.7M  Monday for Elvis and 93M total. 

 

This Sunday should surpass The Lost City as the better non franchise movie since pademic (105M). And around 3.5X multiplier after just 4 weekends.

Yeah those legs are pretty big. It expands from the original audience, I guess.

[ringedmortality]

I finally saw Elvis today. Good movie. Everyone in the theater was 60+. I'd say the trailer that played the best was Bros, that got a lot of laughter. Trailer that played the worst was Don't Worry Darling, heard a couple go "no thank you."

TBP overtaking JWD in dailies number

 

[The Dark Alfred]

Absolutely incredible for TGM to sail past 600m. Glad this summer produced the goods. Thor, Minions both decent hits. JWD repectable numbers, would have cleared 400m with had it been good. Happy to see Elvis and TBP doing great. Rooting for Nope to deliver as well. Not so optimistic for the rest of the year, schedule is weak, Black Adam and Black Panther will most likely disappoint.

I think those numbers are OW only since I believe TG2 Male to Female demo was 54-46 after weekend 2

How it can be different?

 

For what i know you have this kind of data from the same Cinemascore surveys people compile in the first weekend. I don't think they give this kind of things to people after the first week.

Top gun has a bigger white audience not because of politics but because the audience is older.  Seeing 62% of whites for Elvis, 74% for Downton Abbey.

 

The more the audience is young the more is multiethnic.

The sequel is playing broadly. In weekend 2 PostTrak exits, Top Gun 2 is seeing 38% over 45, with the 25-34 crowd delivering the best attendance at 24%, followed by 45-54 at 20%. Still a marvelous audience response here at five stars and a 75% definite recommend. Men over 25 were big over the weekend at 43% (95% grade), then women over 25 at 38% (93% grade), with men under 25 at 11% (95%) and women under 25 at 8% (82% grade). Paramount reports that the under 35 demo gained 3% in weekend 2 from weekend 1, now standing at 49%.

I don't want to say something stupid because I'm not american but maybe the youngest generations are more aware about their real ethnicity. So  someone  with some latin ancestors can present himself as multiethnic and they count him for both white and latin?. Or i'm saying something totally wrong? 😅

Ok. How they make this tracking?. Surveys?. 

[titanic2187]

No surprise since this past weekend is the biggest aggregate weekend gross for 2022, in line with the weekend thread that hit 97 pages.

 

I was hoping for a $250m this past weekend from all movies but TLT disappoint a little.  So we got $238m instead, and this should be downhill from there. The aggregate gross should again fall below $100m by Aug 12, the 2nd weekend of BT.

hmm IDK. Like on the Census, you can be multi-racial. Don't know how that goes for demographic data that the movie industry has.

I completely disagree with this assessment. 25% over 25 is going to a large share of parents taking some of those under 25s to the movies. It’s not all teens and college kids 

 

There remains weakness in the family audience, but it’s not evenly distributed, and LY was especially soft on families , Sonic and Minions were not
