So you pay to see this movie in the theater?
How many people do you know that do that?
I’m thinking it is not real.
There is a fairly new 8 plex theater (built maybe 12 yrs ago) in our little burg. I drive past it basically anywhere I need to go. I’m always amazed how many cars are in the parking lot.
What do you think is not real? The dollar figure?
Since the last indoor movie I went to was twenty years ago, I have no idea how they’re doing now.
Are box office numbers wildly inflated? Wouldn’t surprise me, but it would apply to all movies, I imagine, so relative box office draw would be accurate.
A lot. Every showing all weekend has been booked solid at the theater that sells assigned seating here. This thing was never going to outright flop, it was always going to sell, but will it have legs and sell well a few weeks from now? My guess is it will underperform Disneys internals.
But it will still make boatloads of money
