Re: Star Wars Breaks All The Records Club No movie has ever opened over $120 mil with less than 4,000 theaters.

Re: Star Wars Breaks All The Records Club Tabbed show/screen/theater #s during IM3's OW. Added in THG:CF now. Quote: Top OW Show Count (excluding previews)
IM3 - 163,400
DH2 - 143,400
TDKR - 139,500
BD2 - 136,900
CF - 135,400
TA - 134,400
Top OW Screen Count
IM3 - 13,200
TDKR - 11,800
TA - 11,800
DH2 - 11,100
AWE - 10,800
CF- 10,700
Top Show:Theater Ratio (>100,000 shows, excluding previews)
IM3 - 38.4
BD2 - 33.6
DH2 - 32.8
THG - 32.5
CF - 32.4
Shrek 3 - 32.1 Runtimes for TFA and IM3 are similar. 38.4 ratio on 3900 theaters would be ~150,000 shows for the weekend (minus previews). Let's say an even 40, so 156,000. 25-30K (probably a record number) more from previews would put it at 180-185K shows. Say the actual theater count goes up to 4000, and the ratio's even higher, like 42.5. We'd be sitting at 170K shows before even counting previews. 200K can happen.

Re: Star Wars Breaks All The Records Club There is literally no point in this argument. People will see Star Wars regardless of the fact it may be in 12% less theaters than expected.

Re: Star Wars Breaks All The Records Club 3900? Flop
I'll be shocked if it's under 4000 but it doesn't matter too much.
