blackspider Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Yesterday total Iron Man attendance was 1339. Today so far, we are have has 1103.3D share is way down though. I wish I worked at your theater. We had around 3,000 total admits from just the Thursday 9 pm and midnight shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 (edited) You're forgetting about our savior. He'll most likely reveal something in couple of hours. Yeha, can we just sniper Gitesh and post savior`s projections exclusively? Gitesh creates good meltdowns but think of long-term psychological impact of such enormous life-altering stress.

RichWS Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 However, since July's deadly shooting at a midnight screening of "The Dark Knight Rises" in Colorado, some studio executives say, mainstream moviegoers' appetite for late-night screenings has dropped off. "People stopped going to late-night shows. It was hugely dramatic, and we went, 'Whoa, what happened to the grosses?'" said Chris Aronson, 20th Century Fox's president of domestic distribution. "So some exhibitors approached us to begin a dialogue, asking if we could get things going at 10 p.m. instead of midnight."

Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted May 4, 2013 Author Founder / Operator Share Posted May 4, 2013 (edited) Not sure if this article about midnight shows has been posted: http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/movies/moviesnow/la-et-mn-ca-new-midnight-movies-20130505,0,1356269,full.story Thanks for posting. I still can't believe the logic of this, though. Heartless insane idiots are going to do what heartless insane idiots do, no matter what time of day or night it is. This is all about the money for the studios. If an exhibitor really believes it makes a big difference to the heartless insane idiots, they're naive.

Robertron Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Don't cinemas still show traditional 'midnight' sessions even though they starting at 9 or 10?It's all a load of crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TDK force AMPAS to change BP rules by expnading the field and now TDKR tragedy is forcing studios to move midnight to earlier hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deep Wang Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 (edited) Was that counting Thursday night previews by any chance? I always have Friday as business day Friday. Midnights and previews are separate. Edited for clarity. Edited May 5, 2013 by Omega Boner 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted May 5, 2013 Author Founder / Operator Share Posted May 5, 2013 I always have Friday as business day Friday. Midnights and previews are separate.Edited for clarity. Cool, thanks. Would you say 1,500 or so admissions are feasible by night's end? Not sure what time zone you're in so I might be low-balling or high-balling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewy Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Did you go to a reserved seating show an hour and 20 minutes early? May I ask why? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 I will be interested to see the 3D share on this movie. Rallax's theater lines up with what I'm seeing at the theaters I'm familiar with. Lots of sellouts for 2D shows, but hardly any sellouts for 3D shows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Not sure if this means anything but the two shows that I saw in the afternoon today both had about 25% capacity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmnerdjamie Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 (edited) Because he's smart. I always make it a point to get there early for a movie, especially during the summer. Which will make seeing Man of Steel in NOLA interesting. Edited May 5, 2013 by filmnerdjamie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
