Hard to say exactly. Projecting out, our comp will probably point to 10 for A2. We're not exactly sure how to project out M3GAN just yet because we don't know what the walkup pattern will look like, or what the chain ratio will be. My gut says 8.5-9.5.

 

If we took both strictly at face value for what they say right this moment it would be under 8 for both 😅

I want 10M for both dammit!

Isn't it possible Cameron is a little overwhelmed that he has to make three more 2 billion dollar mega-hits for the next seven years in an artificial world that has consumed his time for over a decade.

 

I remember the stress from Titanic nearly ending that man.

I mean, he himself conceived of the sequels. He planned this. He's not simply being asked by the studio to do more.

Nah, it's obviously just sarcasm. He has all the sequels written down and has filmed the entirety of 3 and part of 4 already, he obviously has it all planned out already.

I'll just say that there are good reasons to expect the chain we are tracking to underindex today, at least in presales.

For Avatar even with a 10.0 Friday (hypothetical) number with 18M Saturday and 12M on Sunday it does 40M for the weekend. Similar to BP 4th weekend. Am I wrong?

It won't stay ahead because it won't reach 715M DOM total.

 

I mean weren't a bunch of people debating a week or two ago if it will pass 500M or Rogue One?

 

So to say it won't reach 715 DOM with such certainty is a bit of a stretch.

Could still happen. It's an early read and there are a ton of variables that need to play out.

What are these reasons, if I may ask? Always interesting to find out more about this stuff.

Why does he always come across as such a twat in his old age? Has he always acted like this?

Has he always been like this

I ran the numbers and get a $39.5m off a 10.0 friday.

The thing is though it may just end up that Sat/Sun play like monsters 🤷‍♂️

I mean Cameron being an egotist and an asshole is what makes him so endearing to me (well, minus the verbal abuse stuff of course. That's not very fun). Hollywood's full of weirdos with full of themselves attitudes and that's what gives Hollywood its charms. Like The Rock's Black Adam meltdowns are just a joy to watch. Can't wait to tell my kids about them.

Because other, bigger chains are stronger by comparison.

@charlie Jatinder what kind of sacrifices do you prefer in order for us to get those numbers?

I think he prefers sacrifices to SRK so that Pathaan exceeds his expectations.

High sat bump, but not impossible. I would greatly prefer 11m fri for a much better shot at 40

As long as Puss in Boots makes above $3.25M today we're G and square.
