 Re: Predict Hunger Games' Saturday drop
Woh my theater has its first sellout of the day at 6pm...
Impressive...
Lets look at Sunday at my theater...
12:45PM: 55% sold 4:20 PM: 60% sold 7:15 PM: 40% sold
This film is a throwback to days 5+ years ago when films would get large Fridays but still have huge business on Saturday as well.

 Re: Predict Hunger Games' Saturday drop
The sellouts are crazy...
Some theaters I would wager are as busy as last night.
My theater has 3 sellouts for tonight compared to 3 yesterday, the other was a midnight.
The crappy theater has pull in 3 sellouts tonight compared to 3 last night.
every single theater has one sellout or more for tonight...
Looking for a massive Saturday...
The film just exploded after 8Pm today...
Its 8:30 and many showings for 9-10 pm are selling out like crazy...

Looking at the non-midnight IMs of 4 of the top 5 non-sequel openings (the fifth is Hunger Games), and applying them to THG's Friday
Alice - 170.1M OW
SM1 - 178.2M OW
IM - 171.1M OW
HP1- 161.3 OW (midnight approximated)

 Re: Predict Hunger Games' Saturday drop
My theater had no sell-outs in advance today. Not sure if any ended up selling out. I'd imagine they did.
