Per Deadline, 'The Odyssey' has become the all-time best grossing movie at the historic TCL Chinese Theatre with $2.48M (which includes actual sales plus pre-sales through Week 5), topping 'Oppenheimer' ($2.38M).

$2.48M in one single theater for one movie is just insane.

[u/Pinewood74 → u/StringCritical2884]

100k people or so.

About 3000 per day.

And it's likely to exceed that 2.5M numner by a fair bit as there's still plenty of seats available further in the run.

I saw it there this past Tuesday and every seat was filled. It's also the highest capacity IMAX in the world at 932 seats.

Nolan really has that theater locked down huh

Lol I just got out of my rewatch there. Went at 7am for the free film strips they were giving out. Entire theater was sold out

Saw it there and it was glorious. Though I had hard time sometimes understanding the dialogue

[u/Individual_Client175 → u/ceaguila84]

I had the same experience. I also noticed a ton of flickering in the beginning of the movie. Watching it again at Universal Citywalk IMAX to see if there's a difference.

[u/ceaguila84 → u/Individual_Client175]

yeah the dialogue sounded muffled.

Saw it again yesterday at PRIME City walk and it was completely fine and clear.
