I wouldn't say there are any perfect comps, but several movies with family appeal - Madagascar, Kung Fu Panda 2, Bruce Almighty, Indiana Jones 4 (maybe?) - have an IM for the weekend of 4 or more

Variety Friday Box Office: 1952 - 11/45 (4-day), POLTR - 11.5/35 xiayun May 22, 14:12

What do you think of their estimate of a four-day IM over 4 for 1952? second gary May 22, 14:27

(And some that fall short too - PIRT3 and PRSIA, for example) {nm} RogerMore May 22, 14:39

In light of your column, I was wondering about PRSIA. {nm} second gary May 22, 14:46

Thanks as always. I had forgotten this excellent column entry. Nevertheless, 1952 has no comic element, which figures. . . second gary May 22, 14:45

it sounds pretty laughable professor smartbrain May 22, 14:51

We'll have one after the weekend {nm} RogerMore May 22, 14:56

Thanks, great post. {nm} tatoufan May 22, 15:30

I'm thinking around 4.5 for the 4-day IM xiayun May 22, 15:31

I guess I've just not seen enough of the marketing to get the clear family-vibe you and RM have plainly got. second gary May 22, 15:46

The PG rating should help, and the preview figure being a much smaller % of its OD also indicates xiayun May 22, 16:29

It's a Disney movie based on a Disney ride with a young protagonist and a grumpy old guy who learns to hope again (I'm guessing) {nm} RogerMore May 22, 16:51

You may think I'm kidding, but I'd forgotten all about the Disney ride. {nm} second gary May 22, 19:51

Both much higher than I thought for some reason? {nm} RollingThunder May 22, 14:29

Still way too early to extrapolate 4-days from just matinees. {nm} Antibody May 22, 14:32

Agreed. {nm} RollingThunder May 22, 14:34
