A complete summary of the weekend box office. We'll run down the top five films: how the new films performed, how the old films held up, and how much they're on track to make the following week.
For many in the entertainment or exhibition industry, opening weekend predictions given just a day prior to a film's debut are useless. That's why ReelSource publishes its final predictions the Sunday before a film opens, plus estimated theatre counts, analysis of the competition, and the viewer demographics that will see the film opening weekend.
Whether you're a member of the media, a studio executive, or a theatre owner, ReelSource has its ear to the grapevine, listening for the news that you need to know. Is a marketing campaign scoring with college students or striking out? Who is the academy buzzing about in the upcoming Oscar race? We're doing the leg work that puts you in the know.
Forget phone surveys every week, ReelSource polls hundreds of actual moviegoers, and provides you with the cold hard facts -- we break down interest and awareness by age and gender, so our clients know exactly who is interested in upcoming films.
Two months before a film is released, we dissect it for you from head to toe. We'll give you the plot, discuss the bankability of the stars, the strength of the competition, and seasonal influences. We'll tell you how long it will be in the top ten and what types of promotions will draw moviegoers into theatres. You'll know the biggest selling points of the film, what locations it will perform best in, and its chances for crossover appeal. One of our specialties is predicting a sleeper hit -- when we sense a surprise blockbuster coming, you'll know too.
Bright and early Sunday morning, we send out the estimates for the final weekend grosses. Using Friday and Saturday admissions, ReelSource is able to predict the Sunday and total weekend grosses better than anyone in the business. With ReelSource, you'll always be the first person to know who the weekend's winners and losers were, and the first to find out the actual studio numbers released at noon on Monday.
After seeing a film, we'll give you the lowdown: whose going to like it, whose going to hate it, and whether or not the film will receive the word of mouth it needs to be a hit.
A companion to our monthly release schedule, we'll give you the heads up on any major release date changes that shake up the big box office picture.
ReelSource conducts extensive screenings of trailers with a variety of focus groups, and rates each trailer based on respondent reactions. A winning teaser can equal a huge opening…a poorly received trailer can mean box office disaster.
All our data gets put in this spread sheet, designed to give you the numbers you need. A release schedule broken down by weekend, you'll get the opening and total projections, as well as running times, genres, and target audiences, for all upcoming wide and limited releases four months down the road.
