DVRG and MAZE were not very frontloaded
Also, kids are still in school in the daytime and maybe that could make its Friday a little weaker vs. Saturday compared to the other teen girl franchises?
I know Avengers 2 was very Friday-heavy in spite of schools being in session, but pretty much the entire difference between its Friday and Saturday was the $27.6M it made on Thursday night.
BO: Early domestic opening projections: $50 mil for PTCP2 and $45 mil for MMAX4 May 15, 14:29
Max got pitchslapped {nm} May 15, 14:33
It's just their projection. PTCP2 is likely to be more frontloaded, while MMAX4 make ground by Sunday. {nm} May 15, 14:57
if anything MMAX4 is going to be more frontloaded than PTPC2 IMO {nm} May 15, 14:59
How? PTCP2 came out 2 years ago while MAX3 ws 30 years ago. Teenage girls are more rabid than 40+ year old guys. {nm} May 15, 15:01
they both have fan base which rushes out on Friday, but MMAX4 also has sci-fi component... {nm} May 15, 15:03
See TWLI, HGAM, and teen concert films to see just how frontloaded their Friday they are. {nm} May 15, 15:07
DVRG and MAZE were not very frontloaded May 15, 15:25
But in general I agree. You also forgot TFIOS :) {nm} May 15, 15:26
it has better reviews, better word of mouth and more chance of legs. {nm} May 15, 15:40
No way. WOM will help Max. Seems to be underrated. A lot of buzz about the movie. At least in my circles. May 15, 15:14
Lots of anecdotal talk today (seems like more than other weekend openers). {nm} May 15, 15:23
possibly but I just got back from the theatre. it was amazing. May 15, 18:35
Didn't mean to single you out, just generally (including some posts below). May 15, 19:18
