From May 12 - Jul 21 we won’t have any back to back wknd winners, I wonder how strong a streak that is historically (that’s 11 weeks — could even go all the way to like, October, but I’m expecting Barbie 2nd wknd will top Mansion for now).

I remember in 2011 there was a new #1 every week from the start of the year until Hop in April. I think that's the record for that particular stat.

(5)

Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

Paramount Pi…

$4,999,688

-32%

2,475

-377

$2,020

$146,718,000

And Paramount didn’t just round up to $5M and call it day?

[M37]

Early numbers suggest we’re going to get Sat bumps in line with 6/24 weekend. That would be +30% for ATSV and Elemental, like $3.75 and $3.0 respectively 

 

Edit; yeah, looks like last Sat was definitely deflated by July 4th activities

Please have sympathy for Paramount’s wholenumberphobia

THE LESSON dropped with just $157k in 268 sites!

Nicely remembered. Looks like 13 wknds in 2011 and 1 in 2010 (Focker’s 2nd) for a total of 14

Pretty much what the calendar match suggests as well (though last sun was better than 2017 so wknd/wknd drops will appear harsher):

Is Spiderverse the #1 film of the summer domestically yet? Or is that tomorrow?

[Starphanluke]

Gonna be funny when Transformers comes in just *over* $5m in actuals. 

Cool to see it continue to hold pretty well, btw. Starting next weekend I imagine it will get hit pretty hard, though. Should still hit $150m.

And here I thought the numbers for it couldn't get any more depressing.

I meant I love exact numbers I hope you don't mind it 😅

[JohnCarterofEarth]

Joy Ride utterly flopped. 

[ringedmortality]

Will Joy Ride at least hit 10M?

I mean, it's already over 2x legs, so it's doing as much as its open would suggest...

Hola setna!

 

Croatia, but can say Worldwide , went everywhere thanks to the job

Gracias for all you wrote, nice to know about statue!, Been for a short while on IMBD forums (whilst was still active), but nobody reacted to similar post, but guess what 1st I found out there was a Crossover between Mazinger and Transformer Universe in 2019, a looks like a short while ago there is a Grendizer PS4 and PS5 game released! (Got no idea how popular PS these days is?) Trying to post at least a photo of Grendizer here, can't make it.Perhaps you can help, absolutely mind boggling!

 

 

PlayStation (along with Switch) is still the console most people play on.

 

Didn't know they made a new Mazinger game recently though

This is correct (for as far back as I've looked). Since the $100M+ openers almost always get a week of breathing room, it either takes a weaker period when you don't have any, plus no surprise hit that holds for a couple of weeks (think Crazy Rich Asians). This is the odd year where the two biggest releases in that period (Mermiad and ASTV) were back to back, and even the latter got topped in weekend 2. And that was only because of the late schedule change where ATSV had to find spot, and nothing else moved

 

Will note that Summer of 2013 did have 10 different titles at #1 over 12 weeks, with only Monster U and DM2 repeating over the 5/31 - 8/16 stretch.. And then also 16/19 into October (The Butler being the other back to back), before Gravity went on a 3 week run

Kinda new to this forum and only recently started following weekend threads closely, it’s always funny missing several pages because I know I’m about to walk into this:
