They have the data on advanced ticket sales - they went up for sale very early and, if my multiplex is anything to go by, the popular screenings have been pretty much sold out for months.
There has been a series if reports since sales opened - it broke the day one record for amsale of tickets to an R-rated film, Fandango says it is steadily selling twice as many tickets for this than any other 2024 film, etc.
Conservative estimates suggest it will easily have the highest domestic opening weekend for an R-rated film (the current highest is the first film on $132m) and some suggest it could hit $200m (which would be the first R-rated movie to do that and only the ninth ever), so it’ll be interesting to see what the numbers look like next week.
I’m suffering from Prognostication Fatigue. It’s Tuesday and they are already predicting a weekend total? What, they have a crystal ball back there?
