no, the tickets that have been sold up to this point.

Posted by: lobogotti on Mar 10, 13:26 in response to mike255's post Do you count people in theater?

the challenging part is guessing how many theaters this plays in tonight....

1. If it played in the same amount as London (2400)...
2. Based on 33 sold at this point...
3. $10.60 per ticket...
4. My theater was on par with a nationwide average...

would mean that it was already pacing for an $840K by 4pm this afternoon.  that's quite encouraging, but please do not take this as anything else but info.  by no means am I saying this film breaks out, just presenting you the data I have to help determine where it ends up (for midnight numbers) and how it gets there.

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

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

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
