Movies

They are?

Posted by: shadowking (a.k.a shadowking13) on Dec 01, 08:13 in response to Jay_Beezy's post Why not more? Concert docs are usually more frontloaded...

The only three concert docs I can think of off the top of my head were Hannah Montana (3.6 IM, which is quite high), Jonas Brothers (2.52 IM, which is horror movie-esque) and Michael Jackson (3.12 Wednesday to weekend IM, which is above average).

The Jonas brothers movie is the only one of the three that is anywhere near horror movie territory.

These are for a February 9th advance screening, unsure if it will be reported in first day box office [could be a bad thing actually]. notfabio Dec 01, 07:09

Having an advance screening of Paranormal Activity 2 didn't hurt it one bit. secretstalker Dec 01, 07:21

Isn't it likely to be much more frontloaded than Paranormal Activity 2? {nm} Jay_Beezy Dec 01, 07:39

Why "more"? I think it's likely to be just as frontloaded... but advance previews didn't hurt that movie one bit. {nm} secretstalker Dec 01, 07:42

Why not more? Concert docs are usually more frontloaded than horror movies. {nm} Jay_Beezy Dec 01, 07:52

They are? shadowking Dec 01, 08:13

I think he's talking about delist multipliers, not internal {nm} RogerMore Dec 01, 08:27

Perhaps, but that's not really an issue until after the adjust. {nm} shadowking Dec 01, 08:34

I think he means that if everyone goes and sees the preview, it lowers expectations for opening weekends. RogerMore Dec 01, 08:51

Let's be real. 26,000 tickets X $10 average ticket price = OW loss of $260,000. That's 26 cents a share. PEANUTS. {nm} dsbman Dec 01, 08:59

70.2 cents because of the OW multiplier, but yes. {nm} RogerMore Dec 01, 09:08

I didn't mean for the weekend actually, but whatever. {nm} Jay_Beezy Dec 01, 09:17

Ooops, sorry. {nm} RogerMore Dec 01, 09:20

It's fine. I'm just still flustered that this movie exists. {nm} Jay_Beezy Dec 01, 10:08

I felt this way when NKOTB first came out, but now I've lived through more than a few bland teen sansations and have learned to care less :) {nm} RogerMore Dec 01, 14:11

On second thought, maybe there's only 26,000 people who would care to see a documentary about him... Jay_Beezy Dec 01, 07:59

Isn't this a doc/concert film that includes performances? I think for movie to sell that many tickets this far in advance, there is interes secretstalker Dec 01, 08:05

I meant that as a wink/wishful thinking scenario. I should have put a wink at the end. {nm} Jay_Beezy Dec 01, 08:33

I have two questions. Jay_Beezy Dec 01, 09:19

He does have the most viewed YouTube video of all time. I won't see it personally but I will invest in it. {nm} Daze Feb 06, 08:49
