March 16-18 Predictions
Love, Simon- 16 Tomb Raider- 27 I Can Only Imagine- 2 Entebbe- 2 I think Tomb Raider should match Warcraft. Love, Simon will be leggy. I Can Only Imagine could break out; it's certainly a more commercial prospect than Samson was.

Re: March 16-18 Predictions
While there will be some interest in Love, Simon, I think its reach is limited, especially in more conservative areas of the country.

though I just saw its projected theater count and that probably wont help get it to 20m. But 15m+ I think is in cards Twitter activity is impressive - perhaps from the Glasgow Film Festival? Will be interesting to see if the momentum is sustained next week.

Re: March 16-18 Predictions
TOMB RAIDER - 19.5 MILLION LOVE, SIMON - 16.5 MILLION I CAN ONLY IMAGINE - 6.2 MILLION
I can't imagine 7 Days In Entebbe doing much with such bad reviews. A movie like that needs good ones. Somewhere between 1-2 Million.

Re: March 16-18 Predictions
I am hoping Tomb Raider does well now. Tomb Raider - $25m
Even with good reviews I don't feel Love, Simon will open big but it will be leggy Love, Simon - $13m
Don't know about the rest, need to look into those first.

Re: March 16-18 Predictions
Love, Simon did very well last night in Sneak Previews. It earned 800K in 963 theaters. Because all the other FOX films didn't see higher increases than normal, it will probably be included for its overall gross.
Those previews are very good. I wouldn't be surprised if it beat Tomb Raider this weekend.

Re: March 16-18 Predictions
I've been against the Tomb Raider remake since its announcement, having not really loved the new game nor the original movies or games for that matter.
But now that it is here, I'm kind of into it. Alicia Vikander bowing motherfuckers down suddenly seems incredibly appealing. Is it just me? I'm basing my higher prediction on the notion that it is not, and that whatever they've done in the late game advertising blitz has been effective.
Tomb Raider - $25m Love Simon - $22m
Black Panther - -30% ish

Generous drop for Prey at Night. I think it drops above 60%.

Re: March 16-18 Predictions
That's possible. I think it should add a couple hundred theaters though which could help soften the blow.

Re: March 16-18 Predictions
I'm still aiming low for Love, Simon. Just not much interest in my region.

But I think it'll do well this weekend, open at least $15-20 million, maybe over $20 million if the theater count goes up a bit from estimates. And yeah, despite someone not being the subject of a studio wide opener since Bruno, LGBT+ issues are a lot less stigmatized than they use to be - they played the trailer for this before Greatest Showman, and my mostly-full audience of families lost it at the "straight kids coming out" gag at the end. It has a lot of potential. Meanwhile, I Can Only Imagine is hanging out at #5 on MT.com already, so I guess that will be more successful in netting a Christian audience than some of the more recent attempts?

Re: March 16-18 Predictions
I Can Only Imagine is getting more traction among the Christian community than I’d have expected. I could definitely see a high single digit or even a 10m debut for it if it gets enough theaters.

Re: March 16-18 Predictions
Is there any significant interest in Tomb Raider beyond "Huh... Alicia Vikander as Lara Croft"? I think this will go below $20 mill opening.
