Looks like strong come back for EEAAO and good hold for the Whale.

So EEAAO in a re-release - 45th week overall - is estimated to have grossed on par with both Whale and Women Talking with the Oscar Bumps & expansions? Way above Banshees and Tár too

 

People are just less willing to pay for the heavier subject matter it appears. RIP to the theatrical Oscar season, completely a niche market now

Studios so far being very, uh, optimistic with their projected Sunday holds: everything posted so far (Infinity Pool and below) is -33% or better, except House Party. Maybe there's some counter-programming effect for the specialty market, but more likely they aren't factoring in the later NFL schedule and using what was previously the off week between Championship games and Super Bowl as their guide. Expecting all of these numbers so far to come down with actuals

Maybe Avatar will be #1 again next weekend if Knock at the Cabin underperforms. 

[upriser7]

Very good hold for Avatar2 internationally..at this rate, it should comfortably be ahead of Titanic before Titanic's re-release

Don't forget the past mid-week was heavily inflated by some lunar new year boost, although we all know China offset that bump.

Saturday jump and Sunday drop is equally crazy.
