that's only the first wave, because beyond that it's actually a WOM movie... I don't think we'll ever see wide-wide, but 800-1,000 sites, sure.

BOM: Fri over Fri drop in avg for [127HR] is 66%... will it have enough fuel if and when it goes wide in a few weeks? Oleg Max Nov 13, 15:57

That's a misleading post. PSA always drops when theaters expand. {nm} Antibody Nov 13, 16:54

It did drop 56% Fri to Fri at its main LA venue which is pretty high for a small expansion {nm} notfabio Nov 13, 17:30

It's the context. Precious Fri over Fri PSA dropped 67%. Still went Wide and grossed $47M. Antibody Nov 13, 20:17

your post is also misleading. Precious made 47 m in 5months! way too long for HSX. 1st wknd wide by HSX metric it made 7.1 mill. Oleg Max Nov 13, 21:23
