vale9001 Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 (edited) I think Anyone but you is far way from something you can call a phenomenon. It started very low and now thanks to Christmas is showing good legs and increases. It's fun to Watch where It can go and to see a movie grewing up in a second weekend. But It needs way Better numbers and statistics to be called something even near to a phenomenon imo. Edited January 4 by vale9001 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borobudur Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 At this rate I wouldn't rule out a 3rd consecutive weekend increase for ABY. The hold is better than TGS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 (edited) Ticket to Paradise had good legs too.(and it wasn't a Christmas release). I think ABY will play very well this January. Edited January 4 by Maggie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swim team coaches and summer camps...especially the latter. It's amazing how many summer camps use movies as the weekly "field trip." It's why some kid movie ALWAYS has to do decently in summer...but it's gotta be animated and "safe" for all ages... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonka has the same decrease than Jumanji 2 (-32%) , Ferdinand (-33%) , a little higher than Coco (-28%) , i think he will make a 30% drop this weekend and a 15,5M-16M a little better than expecting Edited January 4 by Grand Cine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

titanic2187 Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Looks like people really into some horny moment in the cinema. It is time to reboot deep throat and have it release during No Nut November and legs out to destroy dick December. TikTok will go wild for that. Maybe it is about time people start getting nostalgic of golden age of cinematic adult content back in 1970s. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the contrary, the legs of The Color Purple seem to be terrible. We can just hope the weekend is better. ABY has no direct competition. The only other romance movie THG is winding down its run. OTOH, TCP is competing with another musical and it's a remake which turns off people who love the original or simply don't want to see the same story twice even with different cast and genre (drama vs musical). Why WB thought that releasing 2 such movies at the same time was a good idea iss beyond me casue even if you calculate different demos they do cross over to a large degree being the same genre. And since Wionka is much more holiday friendly, it siphoned the muscal demand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Color Purple main demographic is African American (69%), while this audience is pretty small for Wonka (9%). So, I really doubt Wonka hurts TCP at a significant level.

MisterLibby Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 (edited) re: Anyone But You Audiences are clearly still there for these things, the Conglomerates just have to … and I know they hate this … try. Put the effort in. No Hard Feelings got to $50 million despite lacking positive buzz and ultimately being pretty awful. If that movie had the goods, it probably would have been a smash. Even in boom times, the biggest comedies were rarely hits just by virtue of being comedies, they were hits because people loved them. All it takes is one filmmaker to tap into something like Wedding Crashers or The Hangover and the oh-so-convenient “actually audiences only want the pre-sold IP that we control, please refer to our existing menu” narrative will start to change.

All this shows me is that despite far more ways to raise awareness of your movie these days, far less people go to the movies "Far more ways to raise awareness" is completely meaningless. It just fragments advertising which renders it way less effective especially when a fuckload of people directly opt out of said advertising through adblocking.

BadOlCatSylvester Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Damn, Anyone But You has the best hold by far today out of all the movies. I wonder where it'll end at. Colour Purple also gets a "damn", but for the opposite reason. Dropping below $1M so soon is embarrassing, especially when its opening day was $18M. And the worst is still yet to come as it'll be destroyed overseas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
