Ladies... Gentleman... They are lying about the BLACK PANTHER movie being a hit. Slow | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 75991885 United Kingdom 02/18/2018 08:33 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My son is a manager at a larger theater in northern New Jersey. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76267690 He just arrived home and I asked about the movie since threads have been on GLP all day about it. The theater is in a mixed city... with gentrification taking hold around the theater. He says the Black Panther has never sold out and Peter Rabbit and 50 shades are doing better. And this is a typically slow "dump week" weekend because of Valentines Day spending and dates. I looked online real quick and saw this. 1 N Black Panther BV $192,023,000 2 2 Peter Rabbit Sony $17,250,000 3 1 Fifty Shades Freed Uni $16,940,000 4 4 Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle Sony 5 3 The 15:17 to Paris WB $25,432,717 6 5 The Greatest Showman [link to www.boxofficemojo.com] So is my son lying or are they trying to build hype? New Jersey doesn't represent all of America. Sorry. |

They are going to inflate the numbers as long as they can. They are going to call the cattle on every television to go see the movie. |

User ID: 73938027 United States 02/18/2018 10:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I saw it today and theater was only about 60% full Lots empty seats, this a 330pM show on opening weekend? Should be NO empty seats, especially if they are saying its breaking ticket sales records NOPE - Do not believe it No one was talking excited about it, like when you leave STAR WARS or RAGNAROCK, people were chatting the whole walk out, friends and groups just exited quietly .

I had a feeling it wasn't. So during my movie i went into the crap panther movie and it was about 90% empty. Did some organization buy up the tickets and hence why it was empty? |

It's almost as if Disney spent over $100 of it's marketing budget to artificially inflate the receipts. (especially overseas) Like SONY did with 2016's Ghostbusters. |

It also helps your cousin, the theater owner and his relative the motion picture company owner. One group has a way to do this, you can figure that out for yourselves. |
