No it is NOT that simple.  It only means they didn't want this one.  Doesn't mean a different one might strike a chord and take off.

 

Frankly, history is littered with well reviewed mainstream movies that didn't click initially for whatever reason, only to be "found" later.

You are right. It's just one movie. I am not even sure why I care that much. Have not seen the movie yet.Plan to this weekend and hope I really enjoy it and agree with the positive reviews. I think I am just going down the rabbit hole of how terrible the  BO is right now and really hoped it would break out and give some life to the marketplace. Maybe the walkups will surprise and it will have great WOM and legs or maybe it will get beat by TPM this weekend. Will see.

When I said "literally" I meant quite literally as the phrase "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink" is almost a thousand years old (cursory Google glances suggests that the proverb dates back to the 1100s).  

 

Sure, movies ain't that old but the phenomenon I'm describing here sure as hell is.

 

If we want to turn it around to something more recent, then as William Goldman once noted, "Nobody Knows Anything".

 

Quote

“Nobody knows anything...... Not one person in the entire motion picture field knows for a certainty what's going to work. Every time out it's a guess and, if you're lucky, an educated one.”

 

True for making movies as well as trying to figure our just why the GA likes some movies and not others.

Ryan Gosling should be used to this. Probably having flashback to the NIce Guys which some have compared the Fall Guy to. All the buzz and great reviews and audiences just did not care one bit. The Fall Guy will do better for sure but it is also a bigger budgeted movie with higher expectations.

Hey, we all get angsty, so I get it.  And it hasn't exactly been sunshine and roses since Dune: Part Two.

 

But one thing that comes with age is seeing things repeat over and over and over again (this is one thing the reimagining of BSG nailed).  And so I can be a bit more... sanguine?  Yeah, let's go with sanguine about it all.  

 

Maybe in 12 to 18 months I won't be quite as chill about it all. But I just think this is one of those "lulls" for lack of a better term.

[cookie]

After we saw Fall Guy my brother theorized that the film's low interest may be down to it being a movie about making movies. I wonder if there isn't some truth to that and why even the overwhelmingly positive reviews aren't having any real effect.

 

I think the movie has a strong message when it comes to filmmaking and recognizing stunt performers in particular, but the initial pitch doesn't seem to be incentivizing people to check it out.

Wonder how ”Star Wars: The Phantom Menace” re-release will do compared to the other re-releases we had recently? 🤷🏻‍♀️

[Boxofficerules]

Didn't they rerelease The Phantom Menace before and it did poorly. I remember the plan was to re release all of them in 3D but Phantom Menace did so poorly they scrapped the rest.

 - Morbius - .748x (3.58m)

 - Indiana Jones - .586x (3.46m)

 

Comparing OD to previews will skew things a little, but not many options here.

 

From a couple of pages back.

 

Believe it or not, I'm not actually in the wheelhouse for this re-release (as TPM is my least favorite SW film), but there are a couple of things in play here that could work in TPMs favor.

 

For one, we do have the unofficial "SW Holiday" coming up on Saturday ("May the 4th"), which will boost sales on that day. 

 

For two, there's gonna be a preview of sorts for an upcoming Disney Plus show The Acolyte.  If it's anything like the one for Andor, it's only going to be a few minutes long at most, but that could be adding sales around the margins. 

 

Most importantly though, there's honest to goodness nostalgia plus folks who grew up after TPM debuted deciding to see it on the big screen for the first time.

 

Frontloadedness is always a concern for these types of releases, even in the pre-sale department of comps.  So how it does after Saturday is gonna be.. interesting. As well as how well pre-sales are between now and Friday.

 

Either way though, looks to be one of the more successful ones.  Perhaps the most successful since Avatar's re-release?  Haven't really kept track with all of the re-releases lately so I don't know what the current bar is.  Can't find that info easily enough, though I'm sure people here can let me know what the most successful have been since Avatar's re-release a couple of years ago.

That was a 3D release and released when anti-prequel fervor was still pretty prevalent. 

 

Still, that managed to pull in $22m "OW", which not nearly as high as the glory days of the Special Editions wasn't exactly chopped liver, either.  Did only get to 43.4m DOM, so does show the frontloadness factor of this type of thing.

 

But that also might have been one of the canaries in the coal mine about how the days of re-releases doing huge huge bucks at the box office were over (or at least fading fast) plus the emergent backlash to 3D. 

 

Might have been overlooked thanks to TPM being an... imperfect messenger.  But, then again, Terminator 2's 3D release came five years later and utterly bombed, so....

Friday - 1840/21533 (116 showings) $22K
Saturday - 2962/23072 (121 showings) $44K

 

Surprised by SAT being so ahead in sales. Wonder if this is universally the case or just MiniTC2.

Depending on how wide the release is, can see $3M+ FRI, may be even $4M.

Well, would The Fall Guy + If + Furiosa opening between 30-35M be really that surprising? I don't think. And Apes maybe 43-48.

====

 

Didn't have time to pull numbers last night, so no Daily Pace info.  I also know that some folks like separating out EA from Thr, but eh.  Not gonna put the effort into it for this one.  RotB is an interesting 1:1 though, since it's EA was one day before previews.  Though the difference between a high 8s preview film and one that is in the 2-4 range is pretty stark.

 

Threw in a semi-random sample of movie comps, mostly cribbed off of @abracadabra1998's list plus a couple of others I had.  Anyone wants to throw in suggestions for sub 5m previews, I'm game.  If I happen to have them that is.  Could just be doing poorly here, though 2.5m combined is broadly in line with Minneapolis as well as Florida.

 

Have a better sense of things when I have actual pace info starting tomorrow.

Yes, my tribe is kinda weird that way.  What can I say?  It's actually one of the purer/nicer things we've come up with on our own with very little prodding from Lucasfilm/Disney.

Still no sales. I might next report back on the weekend unless I start seeing some movement. There doesn't appear to be much up front interest here.

 

Edit:

 

I went back and tried to pull from a wider area. For a 100 km radius (which captures the whole broader region, probably about an 8M population base), it's sold 11 tickets.

 

I do have data that I pulled from the first few days of The Haunted Mansion, which sold 7 tickets in that radius. That would technically give this a comp of $4.9M, but I'd take that with a grain of salt. Haunted Mansion did ramp up near the end, but I'm pretty sure it underindexed here overall. Plus, it went on sale earlier. I'm using T-26 data versus T-17 for IF. 

 

I also would expect that a Ryan Reynolds movie plays a little stronger up here. He leans in hard in his Canadian identity,

They were cancelled because of the Disney buyout. 2 and 3 were still supposed to come out in the fall of 2013 up until Lucasfilm was made to shift gears to focus on Force Awakens.

[AniNate]

Gonna try some amateur local tracking because I am sort of interested in how this is playing starting out:

 

IF (Thursday-Sunday)

 

Cinemark Cuyahoga Falls - 4 tickets sold
Cinemark Tinseltown North Canton - 23 tickets sold
Cinemark Bistro North Canton - 7 tickets sold
Cinemark Valley View - 21 tickets sold

 

I don't believe Cinemark had any one-day only promos yesterday like Regal did, so I feel like this level of unadulterated upfront interest is pretty notable for an original family movie

I was hoping for +30% and it only grew 11.6%... I don't know what to say that hasn't already been said.  I don't see any reason to think it grows from here.  Hopefully it levels out though and can at least hit 2.5m.  Free Guy is the closest comp in terms of daily and 3-day growth so maybe that comp stays flat.  It only had +15% next day as well while most of the others were 30-40% growth again.  Here's a look at how the comps have been falling over the past five days:
