I always thought Lilo was going for over 500 so I'll say about 180, and MI with a solid 60 mil.

No to the poll question. It's a kids movie that is a remake, there's no huge desire to see it IMMEDIATELY, whereas Minecraft is a gaming movie and the first from that series. Demand was there (even if I couldn't see it at the time). Lilo may do well because it plays well over the summer but opening-wise it isn't beating Minecraft.

Lilo and Stitch 3-day at a minimum will most likely match (or get close to) Minecraft 3-day and then have the holiday Monday to surge ahead. It should dominate the market pre-Dragon and probably still do well longer term. Summer weekdays will also kick in.

The question will be if it can do $500m or not. I think it scrapes by if it opens at the higher end of expectations.

Something like $475-$525m at this stage.

MI8 - 9/21/23/21/16 - 80m over 4 days.

As on date, its crushing Mine and IO2 in presales. Not even close.

Great. My initial bullish projections were for $180-$200m 4-day so that is looking far bigger than that which is mind boggling.

In this case - expect $600m+

Probably not, WOM should be around TLM which did 2.48x 4-day. Even if legs are good enough to do 2.6x 4-day, it would need to open to 230m+ on the 4-day, which doesn't look likely now

Reviews are ok at 74% positive through 47 reviews. Should stay fresh at least.

Perhaps not. I was thinking a 2.8 multiplier but given that reviews aren't crash hot and it probably won't open over $200m 4-day - $500m is a better target.

Feels like 15m previews for Lilo. it was not as backloaded as IO2/Mine. Thinking OW 4 day between 180-200m range.

$180-$190m is where I expect it also. Will be interesting to track over the next few days.
