Domestic total is now $59.8M. {nm} Apr 09, 09:16
One caveat to Green Lantern, that one opened in June, so no schools in session. {nm} Apr 09, 09:18
Shazam skews a lot younger than Watchmen IMO - young protagonist, more humour, no "adult situations", no R-rating, etc Apr 09, 09:40
WM is a much darker world. I'm strugglinig to find a comp for this one. {nm} Apr 09, 10:16

spiderverse is better. Shazam played more asian, but the rest of the audience numbers line up well Apr 09, 10:28
Spiderverse benefitted from 2 lucrative holiday weeks. {nm} Apr 09, 10:33
which is hard to do for a leggy holiday film. Easier to find comps that doesn't open late Dec. {nm} Apr 09, 10:41
i have faith that *almost* everyone here can figure it out {nm} Apr 09, 10:46
If it's that easy then telll us what % would you take off if ASPDR had opened in Spring? {nm} Apr 09, 10:49
41.45% {nm} Apr 09, 10:57
So ASPDR would have made 134*0.59= 79 / 35 for a delist multiplier of 2.25? {nm} Apr 09, 11:08
Then you're predicting a total of $170M for Shazam. Let's see if you're right. :) {nm} Apr 09, 11:50
no, we're lower - like i said, there are other factors in play that get measured (my guess is its largely Endgame). {nm} Apr 09, 12:27
If there's so many external factors, then it's not an easy comp that everyone can figure out. {nm} Apr 09, 13:35
exit polls were better for Spidey, but its not far off {nm} Apr 09, 11:32
