DAJK Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Anecdotal report, but the biggest theater in my region just had a higher attendance day TODAY than Endgame opening Friday. I'm not kidding. This shit is nuts. 5 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, ticket sales can't really go up enough to make up for the price discount. But also means some of the tuesday business may be pushed to wed and thu instead, so we might see better than expected holds on these days instead imho 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavin Feng Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 This is the second Biggest MON of July, only behind Spider-Man 2's Independence Day holiday (27.66M). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoguy Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Just been looking at similar movies and looks like TDK could possibly end up as best comparison to Barbie. Both are late July films. We have to see where the next few days go of course.

Probably gonna be WB’s highest-grossing title ever in domestic. I expect Barbenheimer will become the second highest-grossing entry in NA with $900M lifetime🤓 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are plenty of other months where they can put the movies and do very well, sometimes with essentially zero competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildphantom Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Barbie would need around $100 million for me to be thinking it had a genuine shot at Mario. Can’t be ruled out though as it’s opening 4 days are utterly absurd. I’m more amped about what Oppenheimer is doing. If this thing hits $300 million it’ll be incredible considering the sort of film it is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Barbie doesn't need that, The summer mid-week is the key why Mario failed to reach $600m after all when weekend numbers was so strong. Barbie has at least 3 weeks of summer mid-week bump until it start dying in mid-August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollywood in general crams too many movies into the summer months. There are plenty of other months where they can put the movies and do very well, sometimes with essentially zero competition. Don’t get it either but in Hollywood’s eyes, the box office weekdays always look stronger during the summer. However, that doesn’t mean the summer is free from competition for one or more mega-blockbusters. I think partly why studios keep picking the summer for their bigger movies…i think it’s all about having their specific blockbuster to be THE highest grossing movie of the season. What’s wrong with putting a big movie in a better and competition-free month during say…the months that so far haven’t a $100M+ opener yet, like January and October for example? The Super Mario Bros Movie broke out in April and there was nothing else that could compete with it. 👩🏻💼🤷🏻♀️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redolent Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 The narrative for the longest time was that MI would most likely eat into Oppenheimer’s audience, and of course Barbie had a different audience so was mostly irrelevant. The idea that both would team up to become a giant force only really started to appear by the end of April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Train Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Why give "see it IMAX" movie a release date where it gets only one week of IMAX instead of 2 or 3 weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably thought they can convince exhibitors to stick with MI7 in PLF for longer, even in the face of Barbie and Oppie, because it's the big action movie to see in that format. The problem is Nolan is pretty much synonymous with IMAX. He's their biggest brand ambassador and always delivers for them. They were always going to stick with him. And because of that association with IMAX and film, the overall PLF experience is tied to his movies. Paramount chose to back their horse, betting on quality. Not necessarily a bad thing, as the movie delivers there, but it ran into competition that also delivered the goods and has a pre-existing relationship with IMAX. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taruseth Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 4 hours ago, LonePirate said: If that $27.5M Monday holds, that would make it the 11th biggest Monday of all time. Here's the Top 10 from Mojo: 1. BP 2. TFA 3. NWH 4. Endgame 5. TGM 6. A2 7. RO 8. TFA (simply bonkers that it's on this list twice) 9. TROS 10. SM2 200K more for Barbie and it would pass SM2. Simply ridiculous numbers for it. So: 1. Presidents' Day 2. Christmas week (21st) 3. Christmas week (20th) 4. Normal day 5. Memorial Day 6. Christmas (Boxing Day) 7. Christmas (Boxing Day) 8. Christmas (28th - between the years) 9. Christmas week (23rd) 10. Independence Day holiday (5th July for Sunday) So 2nd biggest without a holiday or Christmas. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment $500 million would be my expectation, and it would still be amazing if it hits that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
