https://www.boxofficemojo.com/weekend/chart/?yr=2015&wknd=51&p=.htm
Movies that people didn't want to see - HRTSE - or which had been out for a long time - eg PENUT lost 1880 theatres and went doen by 80%, JB24 lost 1400 screens and went down by 60%.
Intersting that movies like CREED, HGAM4 lost 1000 screens but only fell by 50, which is in line with a normal weekend drop.
Here's AVNG3

Similarly, some movies in their second week did OK - IFPRT - and others - STRO2 - did appallingly. Movies that lost a lot of screens didn't do great, but movies people wanted to see - AQPLC - did OK. BPNTH had a 4% drop, so it was buoyed by the competition, not crushed by it.
Does someone know how a release like Endgame typically affects the multipliers of movies opening just before & after it? {nm} Apr 17, 13:39
huh...I don't think anyone's ever looked into that...that I know of {nm} Apr 17, 17:25
It doesn't. It has been said on here many times before. Apr 17, 17:38
No, I was just thinking of all the screens it will be taking up . {nm} Apr 18, 06:21
It's more like " "Avengers Endgame is in theaters next week, so I'm not going to see XYZ movie this weekend" {nm} Apr 18, 09:00
Here's the box office chart for STAR7's opening weekend Apr 18, 09:06
AVNG3 doesn't seem to have near the effect I thought it might. Deadpool still had >2X OW, Overboard nearly 3X, Book club >4X Apr 18, 11:53
It looks like the big impact is on movies that open the same weekend, which won't apply for AVNG4 Apr 18, 12:27
Thank you for your insights and data {nm} Apr 22, 08:19
The biggest impact could be on the weekend box office the week tickets go on sale... Apr 19, 12:02
