 Thursday numbers+previews
Quote: #WillSmith's #Focus opens to mild $900k THU night pre-shows - just a hair above $850k of #JohnnyDepp's Trancendence. https://twitter.com/giteshpandya/status ... 4680819712

 Re: Thursday numbers+previews
That's actually pretty solid in my eyes. I don't think Transcendence is quite the right comparison for this, for many reasons. It can still do $6-8 million with that number today.

 Re: Thursday numbers+previews
Given that the largest interest in Focus is coming from the over 30 demographic, this is a a solid number.

 Re: Thursday numbers+previews
Just below After Earth and The Heat.
So it could open anywhere from $25-40 mil.

 Re: Thursday numbers+previews
Transcendence was a terrible comparison to throw out there.

 Re: Thursday numbers+previews
For a movie with very little young appeal, that seems fairly good for February. $20-25M is certainly on the table.
Dunno what Gitesh is thinking with that weird Transcendence comparison. Especially since that opened on Good Friday (i.e. a Thursday would be inflated because some people had the next day off).

 Re: Thursday numbers+previews
$350K for The Lazarus Effect. Would seem to suggest under $10m for the weekend. http://deadline.com/2015/02/will-smith- ... 01382820/#

That was to be expected, IMO.

 Re: Thursday numbers+previews
Oculus did $475,000 in Thursday showings on its way to a 12 Million opening. This might be the best comparison. So Lazarus might crack 10 Million, which would be solid for this one, IMO. I expected less.

 Re: Thursday numbers+previews
I predicted $11 mil for it, but I expect a little less than $10 mil.

 Re: Thursday numbers+previews
Yeah that was a weird comparison to make. Transcendence is a totally different genre. Non-Stop is probably a better comparison, which did 720K in thursday previews.
