39-40mil.

 

If Friday ends up 7.5-8 with actuals, it can easily do over 40mil.

Its not going to change that much with actuals, and if I had to bet, Disney rounded up to that $7M figure

I find it highly unlikely that Friday actuals would rise another half a million, given last night was pointing towards 6.8-7.2m. 13m Saturday seems reasonable enough, if slightly optimistic given last weekend's numbers, but 14 seems like a stretch at this point. I'd say so far signs are pointing to 37-38m 4-day

This is all very disappointing. Avatar should be doing 40M+ 4 day, not 35M.

 

Plane and Otto are huge bombs.

 

Bless Queen M3GAN I guess. Gonna end up with 90M or so.

You must be just a bundle of joy

Still Friday was weakish last weekend compared to Saturday, and you would think Sunday should hold better than last weekend due to the holiday Monday.

40mil 4 day is very much in play imo.

Is it like a 1-2 week limited run (like the AVATAR re-release), or is ti it a full 3000+ release?.

[Eric is Quiet]

I think this was not shared already

 

PLANE (2023)

 

Nothing for House Party weirdly enough. I guess that says something?

We can't underestimate the impact of the playoffs this weekend imo

It needs a Jumanji or Sing 2 like weekend pattern from that Friday (5.77x and 5.70x respectively), which I don't think is a reasonable expectation. For comparison, NWH was a 4.75x last year, but that's probably too low, though only the two family movies (Sing 2 and GA) were better than +68% on MLK/NFL Playoff Saturday

 

Avatwo is a better Sat/Sun movie than a typical blockbuster, but not family movie good.  Mid to high $30s far more likely

That's a good score for this kind of movie, right?

One of the very few adult-skewing movies that are actually doing better than expected.

Well hopefully its 39.999999 then

Is BP2 coming on to Disney+? The +75% friday bump seem soft without major theater cut.

Wildcard Round this weekend. Divisional Round next weekend. Division Championships the weekend after that then the Super Bowl is February 12th and that will destroy Sunday numbers.
