What the fuck happened to horror this year? Last few years it seemed like it was one of the few easy bets left in post-covid market. Now they're just all tanking.

Luckily most of them are still cheap enough to make a profit. But we’ve had no breakouts yet.

Acceleration looks to be starting.

 

Also, now that Lightyear is online (albeit first day of sales, so the comp will come down over the next couple of days before perhaps rebounding over the last couple of days) and Elemental  will be coming online either tomorrow or Thursday, gonna be nuking the ultra-unsuitable comps from the comp block.  Still won't be great due to various reasons, but maybe a smidge better?  Also might be able to rope in KFP4 at T-3 or T-4, depending on what info I kept and what I can reconstruct.

Yep.  Acceleration underway.  See if it continues.

 

Also, as threatened, nuked a ton of comps now that I have Lightyear and Elemental (partial data) online.  Left Barbie for no real good reason except to try to perhaps counterbalance the over-indexing comps.  Will likely drop it next week once Minions 2 starts plummeting.

All comps increased, including the higher ones.  ALL HAIL THE POWER OF T-MOBILE/ATOM.  Or something.  Reviews prob helped at least a little as well.  Brain too frazzled after all the tracking to do much else analysis, so it'll wait 'till tomorrow, I suppose. (maybe)

=====

 

Yeeeeeah, not as good here in SacTown as other places.  Most of the higher comps either kept pace or fell slightly.  Likely Sacramento is under-performing/don't have great comps online.  But Sacramento is probably pointing somewhere between 4.5m - 5.5m.  Probably.  Just have to see how good walkups are tomorrow as well as look to other comps.

 

As usual, no update at the mid-point, so next and final update will be approx 4:30pm PT.

Bad Boys 4 MTC1

Early Shows final - 7505/10125 163492.89 47 shows +3056

Previews(T-1) - 50805/621703 909842.50 3279 shows +12877

Friday - 53176/1036976 936019.02 5571 shows +12340

 

Previews pace went up in high teens and Friday pace actually was down from yesterday. That is expected as yesterday was heavily boosted by Tmo/Atom deal. Still this is a very walkup friendly franchise. Last one was at 42333 T-1 and finished at 115040. This may not go that crazy but 110K finish is still possible (~5x T-1 sales). Friday presales are considerably up from last movie. I am expecting bigger OD than last movie but finish lower due to different release months. 

 

MTC2 Early Shows Final - 2142/2949 35315.35 23 shows

 

Early shows should be around ~300K

 

 

 

Updates comparaisons :

Fast X MTC1 Previews (T-1) - 79352/811991 1363660.36 4568 shows +13218

Fast X MTC1 Friday - 81851/1169697 1414301.81 6570 shows +15985

 

Almost in line with FX in previews better than I anticipated . I expect around 105-110K also so around 6M for previews with EA. No change for Friday and the rest of Weekend so again around 55M for OW. I'm agree with you @keysersoze123

Deadpool & Wolverine MiniTC2 T-56 Days (11 days on sale)

 

Previews - 7731/83899 (318 showings) $115K

1.14x Black Panther (T-28 days) - $32.5M

0.83x Thor 4 (T-17 days) - $24.2M

 

Thor comp froze at T-17 days. GoTG 3 will be next.

 

Weirdly strong day today, selling 200+ tix. Unless some error that gets corrected later on, will make reaching 8.2K by T-50 easier.

1.10x Black Panther 2 (T-21 Days) - $31.4M

0.89x Thor 4 (T-17 Days) - $25.8M

 

GoTG3 comp will froze now.

 

Moving along nicely. Completed 8K+ by T-50 day target rather easily, was helped by that popcorn bucket promo in between. Next challenge is to hit 9K by T-40 days.

 

$35-40M is what I expect.

It's good for IO2 to accelerate at this point generally it's in the final week. I expect a very good final week but not at the level of Minions 2 or Mario (for OD). I think he could make around 10M for previews ( around the same as Minions 2).

Acceleration continues. It should get past $5M easily IMO, and $6M is in range.

 

I added The Fall Guy. I left it out because of it's extended sales window and being less IP driven, but it's probably a good comp overall.

1.500x GB:FE for $7.1M

1.102x Equalizer 3 (estimated) for $4.2M

2.810x The Fall Guy for $6.6M

 

Average: $5.1M

 

It's gotten above 5M in comp average, and growth rate suggests walk ups could take it higher.

 

It's worth noting that there's no equivalent to the Atom deal here either.

 

If I had to put a marker down, I'd be guessing $5.5M.

Deadpool & Wolverine MiniTC2 T-50 Days (17 Days on sale)

 

Previews - 8278/84598 (320 showings) $123K

 

Comps

1.55x GoTG 3 (T-17 Days) - $27M

1.10x Black Panther 2 (T-21 Days) - $31.4M

0.89x Thor 4 (T-17 Days) - $25.8M

 

GoTG3 comp will froze now.

 

Moving along nicely. Completed 8K+ by T-50 day target rather easily, was helped by that popcorn bucket promo in between. Next challenge is to hit 9K by T-40 days.

 

$35-40M is what I expect.

I mean, at this point $200M is definitely on the table, right? Man would it feel good to see another $200M OW!

Because I am insane (and at the time no one else had done it), just completed a Spot Check of DM4 locally in Sacto.

 

It's actually doing really well in my opinion!

 

DM4 SPOT CHECK D1:      137 tickets sold (All Day)

Minions 2 D1:                        68 tickets sold (Previews)

Minions 2 D2:         53 tickets sold/121 total (Previews)

Elemental D1:                        37 tickets sold (Previews)

IO2 D1:                                202 tickets sold (Previews)

 

Added the second day of Minions 2 sales, as it had an abnormally small drop from D1->D2.  As everyone else has said, this'll be a last week movie.  But even in the context of kids movies, it's doing pretty darn well, IMO.

 

How well?  Hell if I know.  "Not My Problem", remember? 😉   

 

(don't expect this again since there are waaaaay too many showtimes even now, and by the time it starts to matter, other trackers will likely pick up the slack)

It's good for IO2 to accelerate at this point generally it's in the final week. I expect a very good final week but not at the level of Minions 2 or Mario (for OD). I think he could make around 10M for previews ( around the same as Minions 2).

 

I want to see how it does locally against both Lightyear and Elemental over the next couple of days before really thinking hard about the possibility, even though the disparate timing of pre-sales makes it tough to really judge in regards to LY, but I've been soft-penciling in around 8m-10m for a while now.  Only in very soft pencil, though.

 

Is a pathway to 10m+/-, but it'd probably take Upper Tier Pixar reviews to reach it.  Maybe.   Like I said, want to see how it does entering and over the weekend.  

 

One thing to remember.  Perhaps because of GentleMinions, Minions 2 had an appreciably higher ATP than many similar kids films.  Do have some other thoughts, but I want to run some numbers on final totals targets against LY/Ele and that'll have to wait 'till sometime tomorrow as I've already retired for the night.

What the fuck happened to horror this year? Last few years it seemed like it was one of the few easy bets left in post-covid market. Now they're just all tanking.

 

I think people lost sight of the fact that most of the horror that has done really well post-COVID has been stuff in pre-established franchises, with the exception of stuff that had a name draw attached (Nope) or extremely exceptional marketing (M3GAN, Smile). Otherwise it's mostly been in the $8-12M range in terms of openings. The problem this year is that we haven't had any horror franchises show up to play yet - well, franchises with a lot of pull (sorry, Omen/Strangers, although the latter still has the year's best horror opening). I guess we'll see how Quiet Place does at the end of the month. July also has two possible mini-breakouts from indie studios - MaXXXine (and Pearl seem to have developed passionate cult followings) and Longlegs (NEON is not a big box office distributor, but they've been killing it with the marketing for this).

Not sursprising. Too many niche films, e.g. Immaculate or The First Omen (which also had strange trailers IMO). And I guess home invasion/stalker horror movies are also a tougher sell than e.g. films like Smile, M3gan, Saw, Halloween (Ends)...

The Watchers, counted yesterday for Thursday, had 170 sold tickets (with now shows in all of my 7 theaters). Best sales in the AMC in LA (82 sold tickets). 

 

Comps (all counted on Wednesday of the release week for Thursday: The Strangers (1.2M from previews) had 360 sold tickets = 550k. 

Knock at the Cabin (1.5M) had 471 = also 550k. 

Tarot (715k) had 114 (but a big jump till Thursday) = 1.05M. 

M3gan (2.75M) had 450 = also 1.05M. 

And Abigail (1M) had 248 sold tickets = 680k. 

 

Average: 750k.
