Deadline saying 11m previews

11.5m from studio. They are bit low from actuals. That said walkups over the weekend should take it above 80m OW.

Sinners is looking at 35m despite Thunderbolts opening big. That is utter insanity. Its going to do 300m domestic.

Above Cap for Thunderbolts weekend is a win. Luckily the movie is good so it should do $210m+.

Sucks I won't be able to catch the 70mm Sinners rerelease, wish I had one in my area.

The floor was low here after the Marvels so over 200 million and liked film looks good to me.

The Marvels was a unique case. IT felt specifically geared toward people who don't watch Marvel.

It was a bizarre catastrophe, the MCU fanbase should've guaranteed at least double.

96% audience score on RT, A Cinemascore probably.

Deadline is sayin 32m including previews. I would say it did not do as well as what I expected from the buzz this week. Walkups were just ok. That said 32m would mean 77m with Guardians 3 trend and that is really good for this movie with D Listers especially with Sinners being a juggernaut.

Deadline is saying 9m for Sinners and 30-35m weekend. Hoping it goes higher than that.
Minecraft 3/13
Accountant 2 3/11

Charlie is saying 20m TF or just missing it and 31.5m with previews. Sinners between 9.25/9.5m. great for sinners. Ok for Thunderbolt.

I would say Thunder is performing about 25% better than it would haver had reviews not been amazing. Marvel's brand has really dropped off greatly. This is a great step in the right direction though.

Its previews to OD multiple was identical to Guardians 3. If it follows that movie it does high 70s for the weekend and 230ish total.

27% drop for Sinners from last Friday. That is insane.

Sinners is a beast. Should keep theaters and play well for several more weeks too. It's a horror, but not exactly, so Final Destination won't hurt it too much. Lilo Impossible will be screen hogs, but if it can survive that its clear sailing into June. I bet it starts to fizzle out around $270M but $300M would be dope.

25m sat for Bolts. Solid but not spectacular. But for the movie with no name characters OW is great. But the buzz and presales over final week did show that it could have gone higher but walkups did not match those expectations. Now let us see how post OW legs go.

Saturday hold is on par with Guardians 3 still.

Thunderbolts definitely felt like an older marvel movie in the best way. Should have good legs, but the real payoff will show up in Fantastic Four.

Disney is estimating 18% drop on Sunday. Too optimistic. It will probably drop 25% and miss 75m by a bit.

I guess it might not be that much bigger than Brave New World in the end but a relative neutral result profitability wise in theatres with 88% RT that helps rebuild the brand is a win.

Sinners dropping from 48 OW to 33 its 2nd weekend is great... Wait.

Minecraft will soon pass 400m and be one of the top 50 grossing films domestic... so bizarre lol

I wonder if the Sinner drops are just for losing Premium/IMAX screens. It may not have lost audience, just the price difference.

Instagram ads are already calling Thunderbolts by its other title. Guess that means Disney wasn't thrilled with the opening weekend lol.

Deadline is saying 18m Sunday(27% drop) and 74m weekend. But still not actuals.

Maybe they should have waited one week before rebranding the movie with the ending spoiler... lol

Instead of it being an original movie with good OW, its going to become an Avengers movie with lowest OW/gross :-)

That is just silly from Gitesh. He is far better than that.

It should be judged against Dr Strange (2016), Ant-Man (2015), Eternals, Marvels IMO.
