final tallies...

Posted by: lobogotti on Mar 10, 19:00 in response to lobogotti's post 6:30 update: Cloverfield - 48, Grimsby - 2

9:50pm Cloverfield - 31 seats sold

9:45pm Grimsby - 1 seat sold

combined:  Cloverfield 91, Grimsby 7

haven't talked to my source for walk-ups since earlier, but I'm sure they'll have sold around 100 or better seats in total for Cloverfield and 10-13 for Grimsby tonight.

I'm going to record a guess (and that's all it is) that Cloverfield does over $2M for Thursday preview.  I'll call it $2.1M or better.  just want to see how accurate my guesstimate can be off this theaters numbers.

as of 4pm, my local theater report... lobogotti Mar 10, 13:12

Thats weird Grimsby in not playing in my entire COUNTY! {nm} Bleachigo Mar 10, 13:14

no, the tickets that have been sold up to this point. lobogotti Mar 10, 13:26

Wait, please explain. Do you actually work for this theater in some sort of management position where you can get actual box office take? diamondman56 Mar 10, 13:25

both. I count sold and have a close source I confirm walk-ups with. I can't go into any more details than that. {nm} lobogotti Mar 10, 13:28

We've got 8 sold for Grimsby. Don't have a decent enough comp to offer but at least a few people are showing up. {nm} RollingThunder Mar 10, 14:04

How do you count people in theater? {nm} mike255 Mar 10, 16:48

I walk up and ask them how much they paid for their ticket. seriously bud, are you not reading my replies to you? {nm} lobogotti Mar 10, 16:55

How many seats in your theaters? Wondering what the sold vs capacity is {nm} JDolphin Mar 10, 20:13

it's was a struggling United Artist theater that reinvented itself for seating. it added spacious, leather recliners, lobogotti Mar 11, 05:47
