It's just what Disney gave.

While there isnt NFL Playoff action today, don’t forget there are two NFL games that have massive playoff implications that will be played this afternoon. Not saying that will have a huge impact, but saying that the NFL games won’t have any impact at all won’t be the case either…

The viewership of two standalone regular seasons games - one even being a defacto playoff game - is about half of the 30M the two Sat WC games got last year (there’s a reason the NFL stuck the Titans-Jags on Saturday rather than Sun night)

 

Yeah, there’s some audience loss, but it’s like 20/80 for Sat/Sun rather than closer to 50/50, the latter helps to flatten the curve from Fri-Sun

Universal did a spectacular job here making a creepy doll film for the TikTok generation. If someone is dancing in your movie, and you can market it on TikTok, considering it a win. The protag’s droopy dance caught on like wild fire out of the first trailer — and this was without the studio doing a #MeganDanceChallenage. There was none of that. It was all organic.

Look at Cringe Man's rounding ability. 😂😂😂

Kicking off 2023 in amazing fashion like:

 

[stuart360]

Its a shame we get Friday numbers a day before the weekend numbers. It means 5000 incoming clickbait vids of A2 being beaten by a killer doll movie, and zero vids done after the weekend when A2 will win the weekend by 10-15mil.

Pussy reigns supreme. 3rd weekend bigger than opening weekend. Greatest showman who??? 

I´m seeing now the run of TGS and i´m remembering that made more money in its 6th weekend than first, really amazing. 
Anyone knows another move that did something like this?

I don't want to be the guy who comes up to Papa Nolan and tells him they need to market his movie with the Oppenheimer Shuffle.

With Megan and Otto posting great nubers: Maybe Avatar indeed was able to remind people, that it's worth going to the movies, not only for tentpoles. Maybe there are some other surprises out there for January. 

Don't know about US theaters but Canadian Cineplex plays a message from JC to watch movies as they are intended - at the cinema. So maybe the powah of JC compels people to return to cinemas.

He has always been like that. 😂😂😂 Imagine, the movie made close to $12M and he would still say $11M. 😅

the what now

[Issac Newton]

Both movies top off a weekend that’s bound to add up to around $101M for all titles, +61% from Jan. 7-9 a year ago which made $62.7M per Box Office Mojo.

[ando]

Praying for a $19M Saturday, please.

 

(Though I'll be content with $18M)

[filmlover]

A Man Called Otto actually had a pretty solid expansion too, think this one's gonna do well when it goes wide next weekend. The adult movie isn't (completely) dead yet!

Plenty of 80s and 90s films. ET, Titanic on a grander scale. Also check out My Big Fat Greek Wedding. 

[Alex SciChannel]

PiB had a 1% higher boost than Avatar hehe.

 

[kayumanggi]

So M3GAN's budget is just $12M.
