If I’m not mistaken, that weekend those past years didn’t have as many blockbusters as this weekend this year. Oct 24, 11:18

WB got GOVKO over $100M, will likely keep DUNE in theaters until $100M. {nm} Oct 24, 09:36
I think will delist here around 90. HBO Max will kill its legs. {nm} Oct 24, 12:51
2.25 would be decent considering theater exclusives VENM2 is 2.0 and JB25 looking like 2.35. {nm} Oct 24, 16:26
2nd weekend will be ok and then will lose its IMAX/PLF screens for Eternals and not hold well {nm} Oct 24, 16:31
I notice that HSX is IPO'ing a Dragon Ball Super stock on Monday... but why are there never any My Hero Academia stocks? {nm} Oct 24, 07:50
My Hero Academia outselling other openers for next week {nm} Oct 24, 11:52
DUNE is the real deal should be seen in the bigges screen with the best sound Oct 24, 05:30
It still has its charms for me though even the “Lynch” cut really wasn’t his ultimate vision Oct 24, 10:29

Disney notably cancelled their Marvel film for that October date on Monday. {nm} Oct 22, 14:15

Apparently that number is from WB and rival studios are going higher. {nm} Oct 22, 13:41
I'm still betting there is a sequel. Legendary needs it. {nm} Oct 22, 13:48
How much do you think WB paid Legendary for putting DUNE on HBO Max? {nm} Oct 22, 13:51
My figure is around 13M today (down from 14 odd from presales last night) at this stage. Not the 11 to 12 of Deadline. {nm} Oct 22, 14:18
At least this time they are fessing up that it's WB feeding them that number. So it stands to be low. {nm} Oct 22, 14:36
Well cant see 30 to 32 from here. Wont do the 50M Deadline suggested exhibitors expected {nm} Oct 22, 14:57

Looks like it has been estimated at 12.4 (17.5-5.1 Previews) for Friday so about what I had {nm} Oct 23, 09:22
Maybe a 10% bump today at this stage so around 13.5 for Saturday {nm} Oct 23, 09:29
40 seems less likely now and more like 38 to 39. {nm} Oct 23, 09:31
