The definition of a disappointment. LOL 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M37 Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 While I won't say Avatwo is a "family movie" in the traditional sense of the term, but having a more casual/less fan rush audience and a loooong running time that skews sales to earlier showings, it may start to behave more like a family movie than the SW/MCU comps that kinda fit over the first ~12 days. Interestingly, it has tracked MUCH closer to Sing's 2016 post-xmas daily pattern than the rocket-like break from RO Which is to say we may see a smaller NYD bump here, more in the 10-15% range (evening sales after 4/5p look kinda soft in some spot checking, even for PLF). One other nugget: though they get there via slightly different patterns, both +25% of RO and +40% of Sing - the gap over the last 3-4 days - would project out to another $57-$58M by Thursday [~$100M week / $458M total] 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean its improbable based on the variables and past comps we are dealing with that arent exactly mathematical or scientific data. There is always uncertainty and uniqueness that can come into play for each movie and each run and even 3 weeks in. After all A2 DOM run has had ups and downs. Yeah it will most likely not do ~700m but impossible is way too strong of a word. We arent at Feb 1 with a 565m DOM gross in our hands were all probablities for a 650m run is exausted. Its 170m behind NWH at the same point in time. It grosses exactly the same from now onwards which is far from impossible tho maybe not likely you have 635m . Doing better gets you at 650m. Still far from impossible even if i wouldnt bet on it Edited January 1, 2023 by Gkalaitza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last week Disney projected a $21m from CD but actual put the number at $29m Again this week project another $21m for NY day so the actual will come to $29m too! $71m then! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brainbug Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Just now, Gkalaitza said: ah i get it, dinos I confess i should probably stop this, since we still dont have a clear sarcasm symbol here. In all honesty, 600M for Avatar 2 is locked imo and it should land in the 640 - 700M range. For 700M+, it would need amazing January holds and until we see them, i personally woudnt predict them to come as i dont think WOM is strong enough for Avatar 1-like holds going forward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andreas Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 26 minutes ago, stuart360 said: I think you mean 'regardless' of China right?. If China wasnt covid ravaged we would be looking at 1.8-1.9bil International take. As for domestic, A2 will be around the 500mil range off a 30-40mil 4th weekend. The legs would have to be awful to miss 600mil. No, I mean 'thanks' to China. The OS-C gross as of Sunday is $803M and the Holiday Season is over. This movie's chances of getting to $1.4B OS-C are minimal. 34 minutes ago, Firepower said: It seems you really want to downplay the results for some reason. Downplaying the result? As in a WW total under $2B would be something disappointing? Any movie that makes this kind of money is a success story, and your deduction based on what I've said is illogical. 29 minutes ago, Mr Roark said: Yep. There’s a bunch of people inhere that desperately wants to go back to 10 days ago when ~$1.7B seemed the final number. The reason? Unknown. I'd say there's a bigger bunch of people in here that desperately want to go back to 20+ days ago when numbers like $3B and even $4B were thrown around. There's nothing to suggest that this movie will go above $650M DOM, and there are comps to suggest that $600M DOM are not locked yet. My prediction was and remained $2B WW. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To miss 1.4bil International would mean pretty terrible legs to be honest. 1.6bil International is probably the floor. EDIT. Its International take is 961mil as of Sunday, not 803mil. EDIT. 2. Oh you're not including China's gross for some reason. I dont see what getting to 1.4bil wihtout China has to do with anything. Does China not count or something?

ThomasNicole Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 The 10% drop projection for Monday seems excessive I think SUN will grow from 21 to 22 - 22.5 And then MON will be 20.5-21M instead of less than 19M Amazing weekend regardless, 600M very likely 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaos Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Cameron is here to defy BO projection. He always did. History repeats itself Anything under 2B WW would really surprise me and I am expecting much(?) more + German and Austrian (where I am from) 3rd weekends are to become huge like only Avatar 1 could pull off - and the WOM is stellar too. Its an "all family" event like we haven't seen in 13 Years and people honor that.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
