Meh!

TOO BIG OF A DROP FOR THE LION KING

Yep the early previews definitely frontloaded Hollywood quite a bit. Should hit $40M on the dot, Sony will pull some money from Spidey if necessary.

Crawl will pass $30M by Sunday.

Could TLK miss a 3X multiplier?

Aladdin at #7 in weekend 10 is awesome. That is definitely looking to be the best Disney movie run to track this year. Will Smith's first billion + movie.

I think later-run legs get it above that 3 multiplier, but it is in danger of missing $600 million. It's already tracking behind Incredibles 2.

Not surprised by Lion King. Dropping 60% on summer first Monday is always a bad sign (see Cars 2) and going much above a 50% rise on Friday is very difficult. Also, it really isn't the kind of movie that can attract multiple views, so I'd say 600M is definitely out of question.

It will end up just 15% higher than BatB (and 10% adjusted). Pretty underwhelming.

I was expecting a 55% drop and 3.7 multiplier for TLK. Drop this week will be bigger but it will still easily get 600m. Mid to late August will be totally different.

RTH gives early Saturday numbers:

$30m for TLK and $13.3m for OUATIH
