Also from Deadline:

 

"Avatar: The Way of Water easily gets an A CinemaScore, the same grade as its first film 13 years ago. PostTrak is still 5 stars, 91% with men at 58%, women at 42%. Men over 25 are the biggest quad at 36% (89% grade), followed by women over 25 at 24% (93% grade), men under 25 at 21% (89% grade), and women under 25 at 19% (94% grade) — arguably a great hearty turnout for each demo. Diversity demo update on Comscore/Screen Engine’s PostTrak audience exits are 33% Caucasian, 27% Hispanic, 17% Black, 15% Asian and 8% Other."

$36m true Friday after all? This is saddening, barely topping TGM and JWD.  

 

And the holdovers are holding good, meaning A2 hardly impact them.  

 

 

Warner really should have left Shazam 2 in December in hindsight.

That's a really good hold in light of the competition and loss of premium screens.

 

Its going to stick around as a good option for people over the holidays looking for something epic, but not keen on the Avatar runtime.

Do we have data on the first movie's demo breakdown?

[nguyenkhoi282]

I'm still pretty confident on 2 Billie. Just a feeling. Could come close to 2.5 - 3.0 has China not been a dead zone like right now so still great everything considered.

Got anything on Whale @Shawn? For the derby folks

It's close to 3 hour on its own lol.

There’s a very real possibility that Avatar 2’s Sat will be higher than it’s combined Thu/Fri.

 

I never change my predictions— $134 milly OW is where I’ve had it for weeks— but I feel compelled by the data to mention that a 55 milly day might be incoming.

All for Cameron eating humble pie and I love me a good meltdown.

 

But it would foolish to jump the gun this quickly. Remember how Avatar dropped 2% in it's second weekend?!

This is where I’m at. I suspect ultimately its run will make no one happy.

Why do I have a feeling that in 98% of these "fanfictions" Hänsel und Gretel are portrayed as step siblings only for a very specific reason?

From Deadline:

 

"Engine’s PostTrak reports that 41% of all moviegoers are buying tickets day of, meaning a lot of walk-up business."

 

Let's see how that translates in the coming weeks.

Utter joke, it is the opposite of lot of walk-ins

No. But again remember how many blamed the snowstorms in the northeast for Avatar's $77M opening?

 

Again. Too early to make a call either way, and I say this as one who never thought The Way of Water would topple Top Gun: Maverick, domestically at the very least. Still don't.

Yes I am in same boat. Don't see this topping TGM domestically.

Shows what you know — making it step loses the appeal

At this rate my diff from avg may rival Thanksgiving @XXR Tulkun Rider 😳

[Jonwo]

I think Disney will be happy, $130m+ is still more than the first Avatar's OW and only the sixth film to break $100m+ OW in December especially when you consider four of the top five are Star War films and the top film is Spider-Man.
