Quick Friday update. ROS has dropped an estimated 71% from last Friday. While this isn't quite as big as a drop as TLJ saw, 76% from opening Friday, it is much worse than the 59% that TFA saw.
ROS currently sits at $316M. This is 1.7% below TLJ's $321.4M at the same point in time. If this continues, ROS will make $609.7M at the DBO. While it does appear that ROS will have slightly better legs compared to TLJ, it is important to note that ROS 1st full week was a holiday break, with the increases that come with it, whereas TLJ saw a holiday break on its 2nd week. I see ROS losing some ground when both film's 2nd week gets added.
At the FBO, ROS sits at $282.3M. This is 7.5% lower than TLJ's $305.2M at the same point in time. If this continues, ROS will make $658M at the FBO, and a WW total of $1.27B. Again, it looks like ROS has made up some ground in the FBO. Of course, it's also important to note that TLJ saw a release in China on Weekend 4, which is why it barely dropped from Weekend 3. ROS will not see this kind of boost, as it is was pretty much a WW launch in the major regions, so will continue steadily dropping each weekend. And while China didn't help much, it gave TLJ a total of $41.2m. ROS's total, on the other hand, will most likely not even match TLJ's opening there of $28.2M. It now sits at $15.1M after its entire 1st week.
