That's not possible with $27.5m Monday. It will certainly decrease big on Wednesday and then some on Thursday before the weekend. I'm still not convinced on an increase on Tuesday. For a movie in such high ticket sales the discount will work against the gross.

Yes you mentioned under but I am assuming you meant just-under and not under like $22m with that statement

On paper it should increase today but the movie isn't performing well so you just never know. But it's Wednesday will be lower than $25m for sure and then Thursday will see another decrease

It's not doing $31m on Tuesday and you're expecting a 10% Wednesday drop from discounted boxing day gross that has got to be a mistake right? RO dropped 30% after Boxing Day on a discounted Tuesday there is no way TLJ sees only 10% drop on Wednesday.

I was looking at 2006 as a reference

Ok that's fair but that was also 10 years back so we have to adjust things to current marketplace specially with Tuesday's now

It will happen on Saturday. It needs about 39.5m over Friday and Saturday, and it should do above 20m on both days.

I wonder what was the last time the year end title switched this late but still within the calendar year. Both TFA and RO dodnt actually take the yearly title until after New Years (TFA was SUPER close on 12/31 but short). This may be a record in modern late switch within calendar year for modern BO.


Skimming through the yearly list on BOM, the closest appears to be the first Harry Potter, which overtook Shrek on Christmas Day. Most other November/December yearly crown-holders didn't take the crown until the new year.

Yep even if it increases TLJ will reach just about $20m on Saturday which would not be enough to get past BATB. Sunday it is then.
