And this movie over Xmas actually has real competition for weekend #2 and #3 for families and sci fi...

Posted by: TwoMisfits (a.k.a del_SCA_TwoMisfits) on Nov 29, 15:56 in response to TwoMisfits' post So $75M vs $120M is about 40% less or about $150M OW -...

So, this will be a much more interesting Christmas season to watch than last year's Alvin Pt 1000, a mop movie, and a comedy...no way could Star 7 not be the season's juggernaut with those movies...this year, there will be more real competition for the seasonal dollar.  Sing and Passengers could actually play for those audiences, especially if Rogue One is not good...reviews for all will tell the tale...and that doesn't mention La La Land being another crowd pleasing musical, also missing last year.  Everyone made way for Star 7 last year, but they are competing against this one after OW...

Deadline has updated with more Rogue One Stats: 2nd highest day of pre-sales for IMAX (Force Awakens #1) notfabio Nov 29, 14:22

Sold more than advanced tickets in one day than all the sales of Dr. Strange, Suicide Squad, Deadpool {nm} notfabio Nov 29, 14:23

I don't read that as combined. "For Movietickets, Rogue One‘s first 24 hours outstrips their sales for Suicide Squad, Deadpool and Doctor S {nm} Antibody Nov 29, 14:26

Interesting the top 2 2016 films CAPA3 and SUPE2 are not top 3 presellers. {nm} Antibody Nov 29, 14:25

^top 2 openers I mean {nm} Antibody Nov 29, 14:25

Fans may not have known when presales started - Rogue One made it a huge announcement...that helped day 1 TwoMisfits Nov 29, 15:35

keep moving the goalposts {nm} slipping jimmy Nov 29, 15:35

No moving the goalposts - I still don't see data that takes this out of the trackers' weekend estimates - $4M is nowhere near $150M yet... {nm} TwoMisfits Nov 29, 15:36

90% of Force Awakens first-day presales would be more like $5.8m {nm} slipping jimmy Nov 29, 15:39

So, when I see presells of $75M or so before OW (or about 25%+ less than Star7), I'll take notice that this could break over $150M TwoMisfits Nov 29, 15:39

25% less than STAR7 would be $185M. {nm} Antibody Nov 29, 15:41

Star 7 had more than $100M presales (was around $120M if rumors are right) - thus my 25%+ remark... TwoMisfits Nov 29, 15:42

it also had an extra month of presales v. Rogue One's 3 weeks {nm} slipping jimmy Nov 29, 15:46

I know, so thereotically the OW would also be 25% less. {nm} Antibody Nov 29, 15:46

So $75M vs $120M is about 40% less or about $150M OW - wake me when we see that presale # exceeded...then this will be big... {nm} TwoMisfits Nov 29, 15:48

And this movie over Xmas actually has real competition for weekend #2 and #3 for families and sci fi... TwoMisfits Nov 29, 15:56

competition matters even less at Xmas. everyone has time to see whatever they want {nm} slipping jimmy Nov 29, 16:06

If you quit posting about Rogue One, I'll fo that {nm} JDolphin Nov 29, 20:11

... I'll do that :) {nm} JDolphin Nov 29, 20:12

2nd highest ever means it's already ahead of HGAM films that opened >$150M. {nm} Antibody Nov 29, 16:07
