All I know is when The Last Jedi tickets went on sale at Alamo Drafthouse in Brooklyn, they went so quickly that we almost weren't able to get tickets to a single screening from Thrus at 7pm all the way through the entire week and into the next following Tues afternoon.

I bought Solo tickets 2 weeks after they went on sale at Alamo and only the Thurs night shows were sold out.

Yeah, not nearly as much buzz/excitement for this from the casual fan.

Which I get and may play into dime's point. I admit I'm not nearly as excited for this one. But I'm sure I'll have a good time. Harloff didn't love it, which bodes well for me.

Won’t all the trades and news outlets include the Monday given the holiday?


Yes, but Boxofficemojo gives daily totals, and I am good at subtraction.

No way it makes more in week two with the holiday weekend being the opening weekend.

Even without the holiday, I don't see it happening. It is super rare for tentpoles like this to do better on the second weekend.

Current figure is $83,325,000. That's pretty fucking low, wow. I should have gone with my gut and guessed lower than I did. :shake:

That's if today comes in just a tick under yesterday's total. If it's worse, it could be much lower.
