I'd expect them all to have that kind of multiplier because of the time of year they are released, with or without a Star Wars movie.

These aren't movies audiences rush to see on opening weekend, they turn out to see them over the Christmas-New Year holiday season.

No Star Wars last year, but TMULE had a DM of 4.6. The following weekend had MPOPN (6.0), TFRM6 (5.0), AQUMN (4.2)

No Star Wars in 2014, but ANNIE had a DM of 5.0 and NMUS3 had 5.8, opening against HOBT3, which only had a $90M 5-Day

2013 (the last year the pre-Christmas movies opened on 20 December) had SAVMB (7.3), AMBUL (5.24),WDINO (4.75) and ANCH2 (4.0) against the 2nd week of HOBT2

Does someone know how a release like Endgame typically affects the multipliers of movies opening just before & after it? {nm} forlorne Apr 17, 13:39

huh...I don't think anyone's ever looked into that...that I know of {nm} tealfan Apr 17, 17:25

It doesn't. It has been said on here many times before. ndmaster Apr 17, 17:38

No, I was just thinking of all the screens it will be taking up . {nm} forlorne 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} Antibody Apr 18, 09:00

Here's the box office chart for STAR7's opening weekend RogerMore 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 forlorne Apr 18, 11:53

I think a lot of the screens AVNG4 and similarly hyped blockbusters would dominate are the premium ones. There are plenty of screens to go RogerMore Apr 18, 12:38

It looks like the big impact is on movies that open the same weekend, which won't apply for AVNG4 TheDowIsUp Apr 18, 12:27

Thank you for your insights and data {nm} forlorne Apr 22, 08:19

The biggest impact could be on the weekend box office the week tickets go on sale... Silverblue76 Apr 19, 12:02

ERC: In the wake of AVNG4: ...outside of Disney, rival studios' films in the Top 10 dropped an average of -68% this weekend. tatoufan Apr 29, 10:37
