Movies

Superhero movies, be it Marvel or DC, have always been relatively frontloaded.

I don't have my Thursday previews charts handy, but i used to keep track of them and then kind of stopped last year... but there have been some mults as low as 5.5 and 6X Thursday for the weekend. I guess I was thinking Venom would be on the low side cause it's really not very good.Ā 

VENM2: $90.1M weekend budice Oct 03, 08:00

Of all the movies to bring the box office back... {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Oct 03, 08:45

This is gonna hurt on Monday. I expected it to be a lot more frontloaded to Thursday. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Oct 03, 09:26

What's going to hurt? VENM2 dropped only 15% on Sat vs 21% for SHCHI and 19% for VENM1 {nm} Antibody Oct 03, 09:44

Ahh, you shorted .OW {nm} Antibody Oct 03, 09:50

one good thing is that you could only short 100K. {nm} Grunt Oct 03, 10:21

Uh, no? ndmaster Oct 03, 10:25

Because it's true... OW derivatives can only be held 100k one way or the other, unlike stocks. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Oct 03, 11:20

Look at the post immediately above mine {nm} Grunt Oct 03, 19:36

Yup... I think I estimated about $65 to 70 million based on Thursday previews... but I did go long on both call and puts, too {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Oct 03, 11:19

11.6m previews for 65M total OW? {nm} ad48 Oct 03, 11:22

BW had an awful multiplier because of its $30 streaming D+ release (13.2 to 80M) {nm} ad48 Oct 03, 11:24

Agreed but a 5X is for 30 to 60M previews (Endgame, Star Wars etc) {nm} ad48 Oct 03, 11:39

Everything else will at least be a 7X (SC was 8.6) Last Venom was 8. This one is 7.8 {nm} ad48 Oct 03, 11:27

WARNING ......BOND will maybe have a 10X on its preview number (Spectre was 13) {nm} ad48 Oct 03, 11:29

good call whoever had 90....(ad48 ?)....you win. Finally some crazy (good) news. (the studios project low so as to not look bad if its low) {nm} 3ebfan511 Oct 03, 09:04

scrolling down is hard {nm} Moviesnob Oct 03, 09:16

Carpel Tunnel is a fickle mistress. :P {nm} DTravel Oct 03, 10:10
