100.4 according to Deadline.

Let's see if it sticks.

Tremendous. Should top $200m with that and challenge for 2nd biggest ow of all time.

So that'd be down only -11% from TFA's Friday gross, right?

That's pretty great retention.

Yeah, huge. But it is only an estimate. Isn't it likely to go down? Don't they, on average, go down more often than staying flat or increasing?

Yep! It’ll go down to around 95m. Deadline always over estimate

Whoa. So its actual Friday was almost on par with TFA. Very impressive.

So about $210m for Jedi, definitely great!

I'm a little disappointed with Ferdinand given Blue Sky's track record and nearly 400K Facebook likes.

Pretty atrocious for Ferdinand. Should have at least matched The Road Chip.

Oh man sad for Ferdinand

Post subject:  Re: Early Friday #s (triple digits)

Fantastic for TLJ, but Ferdinand is somewhat disappointing. Obviously, most families were going to choose to see Star Wars over it though. I couldn't even remember what the hell Road Chips did, so I looked it up and that only did $14M against TFA. Ferdinand won't be far from that and it could still finish with $80-$85M, but it all depends on how Jumanji affects it aswell.

Very strong number, indeed. I don't think anyone could have expected much higher, honestly, and it's very likely achieving the second biggest opening weekend with it.

Post subject:  Re: Early Friday #s (triple digits)

Great number. Looks like for the first time ever though, the top film of the year domestically will NOT be the top film for an individual market for the year. Wolf Warrior's sequel made $867.6 m in China, which SW may not reach.

Yawn.

Star Wars is so incredibly overrated.

Post subject:  Re: Early Friday #s (triple digits)

Not sure why people expected more for Ferdinand going up against The Last Jedi, not to mention there's still some competition from Coco and even a little from Wonder. It's pretty much in typical "family film before Christmas" territory.

Charlotte's Web - $11,457,353 OW/$82,985,708 Total
Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius - $13,832,786 OW/$80,936,232 Total
Alvin & The Chipmunks: The Road Chip - $14,287,159 OW/$85,886,987 Total

Yogi Bear did better but didn't have anything like Star Wars to open against.

That was $16,411,322 OW and $100,246,011 Total.

Ferdinand should be good for 80-100 Million.


I knew The Disaster Artist would see a pretty good drop this weekend, but this is disastrous. Very front-loaded movie.

Definitely expected more from The Shape of Water.

OW benefits from opening on the 15th rather than the 18th. This must help the ratio too because the date makes less of a difference to people who go to previews. In other words the 15th has less money taken by the holidays because people are less likely to wait.

Also, another strong hold from DH2.

I agree to an extent that it helps its OD. It's Sunday though wont benefit as people had off on the Monday following TFA so it wasn't a "school night" whereas it will be a school night for TLJ so it won't have as strong of evening shows. I see this dropping similar to how Rogue One did on Sunday and not TFA.


The evening might be lower, the day will be higher. Rogue One still had a significantly higher percentage of its total on its first Sunday than TFA.

Also, the level of sellouts can help the Sunday drop compared to Rogue One.
