Somewhat interesting tidbit: Highest grossing movie theater for Despicable Me 4 was in metro Phoenix

 

In regards to DM4 PostTrak audience were very good at 82% positive and a 63% definite recommend with kids under 12 giving it 91% and a 61% must see right away. Mostly mom leaning at 53% with a third of the crowd between 13-17 and 53% of ticket buyers between 18-34. Diversity demos were a massive 41% Latino and Hispanic, 27% Caucasian, 12% Black, 11% Asian and 9% Native American/other. Imax and PLF are driving a third of business with fourthquel faring the best in South Central, Midwest, Mountain and West. Top grossing venue in the U.S. is Harkins Estrella Falls with $141K so far.

 

That might be a function of the current heat wave

 

Harkins generally does best for family films. Phoenix did very well on July 4th with numbers higher than July 3rd vs rest of America dropping, so that is what made Harkins Estrella Fall biggest.

Still feel Dm4 and Twisters should have swapped release dates 

[Ryan C]

I actually noticed something a bit worrying. The Friday number for Inside Out 2 is $10.6M (slightly slower than what Deadline projected yesterday) and they are projecting $33.1M for the whole weekend. 

 

However, that doesn't really add up unless Inside Out 2 were to have a substantial increase today. Toy Story 4 did $11.9M on this exact same day back in 2019 and had $33.86M by the end of the weekend. If IO2 follows the same trajectory, it'll just barely hit $30M this weekend. 

 

Still a solid drop in its fourth weekend and in the face of Despicable Me 4, but between this and even last weekend's slightly higher drop than expected, it's really putting to the test if this movie can reach $650M.

Pretty yikes drop for Kinds of Kindness despite nearly doubling its theaters. A mainstream crossover this clearly isn't.

Well, the thing is, it’s been having pretty irregular Saturday increases. It’s been increasing better on Saturday than Toy Story 4. And has been having better Sunday drops, so that’s most likely why.

That THE FALL GUY increase.

Pretty cool. At the same time it is really frustrating they could not get it over the 30 million hump on OW. It would have hit 100 million with these legs.

Comparaison with IO2 and Minions 2 after Friday :

 

PostTrak audience : DM4 : 82% positive , 63% recommand , IO2 : 89% Positive , 71% recommand, Minions 2 : 87% positive , 71% recommand

Demo Genres : DM4:  Majority of Woman , 33% : 13-17 years, 53% 18-34 years so 86% 13-34 years. IO2 : 32% 13-17 years, 51% 18-34 years so 83% 13-34 years. Minions 2 : 75% -25 years , 43% 13-17 years.

Diversity Demo : DM4 : 41% Latino, 27% Caucasian, 12% Black , 11% Asian, 9% Native American Other, IO2 : 40% Latino, 31% Caucasian, 13% Black,  10% Asian , 6% Native American/Other, Minions 2 : 35% Caucasian , 35% Latino, 12% Black, 18% Asian/Other.

 

Conclusion : Like IO2, big Latino representation , maybe like IO2, Caucasian people will see the movie Sat/Sun ( For IO2, we passed of 40% Latino in Friday at 36% for Sunday report) and can elevate the scores of box office. More families for DM4 than Minions 2 so maybe less weekdays scores but better weekend scores.

[filmlover]

The Fall Guy was likely paired up with Despicable Me at a number of locations as a double feature. That's what studios typically do to get a movie past a particular milestone, in most cases.

True. Crossing the mark won't necessarily make the movie profitable, but it would be nice to see it cross it especially since several movies so far this year have missed certain marks like G×K, KFP IV, DUNE II, BOB MARLEY, GARFIELD, and maybe even BAD BOYS IV.

So is IO2 still on track for 650m DOM?

652 minimum 😉

[narniadis]

IO2 will be fortunate to hit 30m for the weekend. Not doomposting, just the old guy (gag 21 years of forum use.... lol) who tried to say last weekend that the expectations were too high. Friday was a glorified Saturday box office wise in this particular set up, hence why even with post covid skews, 2019 and 2013 are still great barometers. It will be flat today or up/down less than 10% more than likely. Same with DM4. 

The film is a runaway success with no more competition this summer other than general theater losses. It will keep edging it's way up the top 20 chart and come pretty darn close to #10 (I personally think it just edges into that slot by the time it's done.)

It needs 137.9m to reach Jurassic World. I feel like it has at least 150m in the tank (664m) 

[AniNate]

This'll be another good week for the box office, but not gonna lie, looking deep at the schedule the next two months, we really do need more than Deadpool to hit if there's any hope of catching 2023 by the end of the year. Potentially could lose another $700 million on the year between next weekend and mid-September if everything just performs "to expectations".

Yes, Saturday will be pretty flat from Friday, given the example of Toy Story 4.

Assuming Inside Out 2 makes $30m this weekend (I think this is likely), it will be $118.5m away from Jurassic World at the end of Sunday. A 4x multi from this weekend on makes passing Jurassic World possible. Might be close.

Probably drive-in double feature revenue sharing with DM4 (both Universal)
