JW FK domestic OW might go under China's OW...yikes.

DOM under $114.5m? That would be bad.

The consensus in the weekend thread seems to be a $100 million to $125 million opening weekend which is very bad for such a big popular franchise.

I2 heading to high 20s OD, possibly 30m+.  A 150-200% bump tomorrow would be indicative of a breakout.  FD bumped 105%

PS will need to get to 13m+ for a 70m+ saturday up 150%

its at 5m now running at 400k per hour. That rate takes it to 9.5m.  Lets see if WoM spreads and kicks up that run rate

I2 will keep all its shows tomorrow, 24%, I guess they are looking for a big bump, Animal World previews will get its shows from other movies

Well... If there were no previews, TI2 would have expanded a little, e.g. FD had 27% shows on Friday and 29.5% on Saturday. So there will be some impact, although not a lot. FD's 105% jump equivalent would be 90-95% jump for TI2.... on the other hand... Sunday drop would be softer.

 

I hope TI2 gets 100% jump on Saturday and stays flat on Sunday. Something like 30/60/60. Sun/Fri ratio of 2.0 would indicate good WOM. FD had 1.75 for comparison.

Is In2 a superhero film? If so, nothing to worry here.....remember big hero 6 breakout? In2 will repeat that feat...

It would be WAY better to have CGI the rock in the movie, would help 10x more. 

EDIT: maybe be not  10x more, but man he is popular in China.

WOM is just normally good. No breakout here.

Nice increase for JW today

 

I2 looks like 31 mill OD

[a2k]

Can JW2 leg it to 1600?

That sets it up well for 190 weekend if not more.

48

85 (+77%)

57 (-33%)

= 190 (1292 cume)

 

... 200 away from 1492 ($229.8 using today's ER, over JW1's $229.74)

.... 208 away from 1500 ($231)

JW2 made 55m today.  That gets the weekend over 210m and the midweek to 80m.  Just needs to make  110m after that to 1500m. Not a problem

 

I2 Sat PS heading to 11m+, 55-65m saturday incoming. 145m/$22m weekend.  Not blowing up but it will make 300-350m/$45-53m Total

I think that's alright for a Pixar film. What's Dory's China gross?

Damn, you had me thinking that there was  a single movie titled “Lobster Cop and The Way of the Bug” there. China, please deliver on this massive crossover potential.
