Could Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them edge out Moana this weekend?
Looking at the numbers for Wednesday, Fantastic Beasts grossed just $42,772 less than Moana.
Given the weak slate of new releases this weekend, do you think there is a chance Fantastic Beasts could reclaim the #1 spot from Moana?
I get that Moana is more directly a family film so it will perform weaker on weekdays while school is in session than a movie appealing to a wider audience but – at the very least – I think this weekend is going to be much closer than people were expecting a couple weeks ago.
My buddy thinks it’s unlikely.
She thinks Moana will probably go the “Frozen”-like trajectory with a 50-55% decrease and Fantastic Beasts will likely go the “Hunger Games”-like trajectory and go down 58-62%. The post-Thanksgiving weekend is almost always a really down weekend.
Well … Let’s have have a look what made up the “Fantastic Beasts” ?
