A $45M opening with a $25M Friday? I know this includes previews and we should expect some level of frontloadedness, but didn't you say that walk-up business was relatively strong? I feel like that would guarantee a much higher opening, unless this becomes as frontloaded as something like The Fault in Our Stars. 

 

Wouldn't be that strange. Anyways the user said high 40s are possibile so if a 25M opening really happens i think more near to 50 than 45.

Borderlands converged pretty consistently at 1.65M previews at all the locations I’ve been tracking (I get some of my numbers from people who work at the theaters which is why I don’t share the exact locations or ticket sales, just keeping their trust). However, since it seemed to be overindexing a bit around here in the days leading up to release, I’m willing to bet that that overindex continued up into tonight. Going to predict 1.45M previews or so, and normally a 12-13M weekend. However, since WOM appears to be bad, thinking this will collapse to 10-11M.

 

It Ends With Us converged a little less consistently. Didn’t have any Wednesday screenings at any of these locations, so that may skew the Thursday number (because while technically this will be true Thursday, not having the screenings at all would mean that some of the tickets that would have been bought for Wednesday would naturally come on Thursday). The three markets that I have the most comps for are at 7M, 7.4M, and 8.3M. Again, lack of EA skews things, but I could sorta average this out and say 7.6 Thursday.

It could be that frontloaded. I mean it's probably going to be like a 80/20 Female to Male screw. Unless they see it over and over again it's going to burn out fast.

1.92x Longlegs Friday (T-3) [13.46m]
1.4x It Ends With Us Previews (T-3) [???]

 

strong ratio with previews, hopefully proving that it shouldn’t be very frontloaded.

It Ends with Us Friday (T-1) 2 days of sales

 

29 showtimes/1189 tickets sold (+564)

 

2.120x Longlegs Friday (T-1) [14.86m]
1.658x It Ends With Us Previews (T-1) [???]

.357x Deadpool 3 Friday (T-1) [20.59m]
 

Lets say 15-16m, I think it’s over indexing for me + I ran this later than usual so comps are probably higher than normal.

[ThomasNicole]

It´ll be great if Cuckoo does 800-900k previews and goes for 6-7M OW, giving NEON their second biggest opening ever right after they got their biggest opening ever.

New showtimes were added this week. Given the strong demand with just two locations initially, so I assumed demand would continue with new locations, but it hasn't materialized. This is showing to be front loaded, and comps are showing that.

 

It's bringing the comp down, but still showing a strong number. But, I can definitely see this landing around $7-8M where others have it.

  I had an error in the AQP as I still had it on D comps rather than T minus. Interestingly, Romulus has sold more than what AQP had at T-1. 

 

Still doing well, and without that incorrect comp, it's back to pointing higher than most. It's still declining, but not that quickly, and this is still showing good daily growth.

Strong start continues. I've added Ghostbusters, which is a good fan driven property that was front loaded. Even then, it's a T-21 start though, so, it's got issues.

 

Also worth noting that sales have tipped toward Thursday previews versus EA. Both Twisters and Fall Guy were the opposite until close to release date. I'm not sure what to read into that but will be interesting to watch.

Average: $19.5M

 

I switched the comps over to T minus, so selection is now limited. Both Twisters and Fall Guy had long windows, so those comps came crashing down.

 

If i separated the EA and previews for comps, Beetlejuice would actually be doing better, but I think this is the better method until the final two weeks.

 

Sales momentum is slowing, so I'll be probably pull back from posting updates.

Borderlands converged pretty consistently at 1.65M previews at all the locations I’ve been tracking (I get some of my numbers from people who work at the theaters which is why I don’t share the exact locations or ticket sales, just keeping their trust). However, since it seemed to be overindexing a bit around here in the days leading up to release, I’m willing to bet that that overindex continued up into tonight. Going to predict 1.45M previews or so, and normally a 12-13M weekend. However, since WOM appears to be bad, thinking this will collapse to 10-11M.

 

It Ends With Us converged a little less consistently. Didn’t have any Wednesday screenings at any of these locations, so that may skew the Thursday number (because while technically this will be true Thursday, not having the screenings at all would mean that some of the tickets that would have been bought for Wednesday would naturally come on Thursday). The three markets that I have the most comps for are at 7M, 7.4M, and 8.3M. Again, lack of EA skews things, but I could sorta average this out and say 7.6 Thursday.

The current Lionsgate management are probably happy they can blame Borderlands on the previous administration :Hey we did'nt greenlight this POS.

Alien Romulus

 

T-17

 

Thursday: 1,320 Seats Sold

 

Taken as of 11:20PM Eastern Time

 

IMPORTANT NOTES: Some of the theaters I tracked only listed showtimes for the "Fan Event" showings, so take this number with a big grain of salt. I expect more showtimes to be added in the next couple of weeks.

 

All I'll say is that word-of-mouth will key in determining whether this beats Alien: Covenant's $36.1M opening back in 2017. 

 

 

Alien: Romulus

 

T-5

 

Thursday: 3,018 Seats Sold (Including EA Showings)

 

Taken as of 2:55AM Eastern Time

 

IMPORTANT NOTES: Much like last time, word-of-mouth will be key in determing how high this goes, but if some of the early reactions I hear are any indication or if what Disney is doing with the marketing (just brilliant), this could be the jolt that this franchise has been waiting for after so many decades. 

 

I'm not gonna go too crazy, but I still believe a $50M+ opening is possible if everything goes right this next week.
