It would be interesting to see how Harry Potter, Naria and Pirate of the Caribbean would do if they debut the same weekend. If I was a rival company I would want to do that (if i was in the stronger position....lol. Of course).

Saw it. Loved it. Going back for more.

I guessing Pirates would get first in that scenario - it has the broadest appeal. Harry Potter has too many ‘tards that think it’s satanic to get first in that scenario and narnia has too many ‘tards that think it’s a “goody-two-shoes” line of movies.

Saw Harry Potter over the weekend. Slow, boring movie. Zuben's Recommendation? Save your money.

You might want to, but it would be a dumb move. You want to be the only movie aimed at your demographic coming out that weekend. A lot of your audience will go see all three movies if they come out on different weekends, but a fair portion of them won't go see yours if they have to choose between yours and two other very popular franchises. By giving the audience a choice, you'd be letting your competitors take money that would have gone to you almost by default if you had the playing field to yourself.
