Weekday numbers July 10-13

[Flopped]

Hmmm. 

[kayumanggi]

Paramount/Skydance’s Mission: Impossible: Dead Reckoning – Part One is looking at $6M-$7M in previews so far, which is bound to be higher than the Thursday previews of the last Mission Impossible – Fallout back in 2018 which did $6M. This is according to sources. The figures we’re seeing now could go higher or lower.

 

Dead Reckoning previews began at 2PM today, however, I hear there were PLF fan screenings on Monday and that handful of bucks is accounted for in the estimate.

I hope this is  Deadline being Deadline because that would be underwhelming to say the least. 

[Ryan Reynolds]

not good enough for MI, may miss the expected 90m 5 day

[JustWatching]

Eh, if that turns out to be true I wouldn’t be super concerned. It doesn’t strike me as a big kids/teens film so its audience is kind of at work on weekdays.

I get it that mission impossible is probably going to make a bulk of its money internationally but it doesn't feel like at least right now that it's heading towards a massive domestic hall. If it really does 7 million in previews that seems incredibly soft. And if it misses a hundred million for the 5-day, that's horrible as well.

And the budget for this thing is almost $300 million as well. So it needs a lot of freaking money just to break even.

This seems bizarrely low. Hoping it's higher.

Deadline being Deadline. MI7 will be fine. This franchise was never frontloaded anyway.

Once again maybe we should  not spend pages and pages doing the doom and  gloom about a Deadline estimate. Just saying.

Even if Indy was performing well, It was never going to make its money back. That budget is just way too high.

I'm not sure I follow.... Most expected it would sell right around the same number of tickets as Fallout... Fallout did 220M in 2018. With inflation that's what? 245M+ now? That's what I expected. Fallout opened to 60 and did 220. Indy is not a good comparison to MI. MI is a good comparison to MI. There are 6 of them before this one... Especially the last two with McQ directing are likely the best comparisons. Both had awesome legs. Neither opened huge.

I think it’s easy to forget that despite the series last this long, it’s not a massive domestic performer.  I’m sure 1/2 adjust to some pretty good numbers, but unadjusted, it’s never gotten over $220m.

I struggle to believe MI7 and Sound of Freedom will be this close to each other for true Tuesday (since they say the MI 7 $6-7M includes both the Sun and Mon previews) when one has all PLF and the biggest screens,,, and one does not...this has got to be too low and Deadline being Deadline...and if it's not, well, wow...

Mission Impossible numbers will go in here with the other weekday numbers. Just makes things less cluttered and confusing.

I have just to accept that no matter how much I and others love this franchise lots of people just don't care. As one person said if a CMB was sitting at 98% on RT it would be blowing  easily past 10 million or so in previews. The fact that the Fast movies have hit peaks this franchise never has can be a little frustrating. It is what it is I guess.

It is not hitting a 90M 5 day with previews on par with Fallout.

It's deadline let's remember that.

My bad. I just used the MARIO weekend thread as reference since it also opened on a Wednesday and a thread was created for it despite not having the numbers yet.

Overreactions to Deadline underpredicting coming in like clockwork, every damn time lmao
