Post Thursday previews
F9 - 7.1m

Over at BOT they were projecting 8-9 last night hmmm. Think it's decent though given we haven't had a preview # this big in so long.

Seems decent, as long as it does 50m in 3 days it’s fine.

That's a great preview number. I still think $70m is possible but not likely with this number. It needed $10m previews to guarantee an opening above $70m. I believe the range at this point is $55m-$71m.

For some reason I thought Hobbs and Shaw opened to more than $60m. I think opening more than that would be considered decent.

H&S did $5.8m on its way to a $60m weekend...

Not bad, black widow will be much bigger though Disney + will blunt it a bit

Rest of Summer big blockbusters have streaming component (Black Widow, Space Jam, TSS, Jungle Cruise) so will be interesting to see how Shang-Chi does.

Black widows previews should be inflated by not being available on streaming till Friday.

Seems like a slightly underwhelming number

Expectations aside I feel this a great preview number. It tops the post-pandemic preview number and should easily top the opening weekend. As mark mentioned H&S was able to get past $60m with $5.8m previews so there is a very high chance this gets past $60m mark over the weekend.

F8 dropped 36% from Furious 7. If this has a similar drop from F8, that'd be a $144.48m, which actually seems likely from a 60mish opening lol

Deadline saying 29.5m Friday for F9, which would be great but expecting it to be lower.

Yeah that sounds really high but with seating restrictions lifted you never know how it will improve over the weekend.

Yep, $29m+ seems realistic to me

In that case $70m should happen unless it somehow stays flat on Saturday from it's true Friday.

Just realized that's the biggest opening day of the 2020s (beating BAD BOYS FOR LIFE's $23.6m)

Indeed Fast franchise seems to be running on full tank.
