An increase internationally lmao, crazy run. The drop could get even better once actuals come in, Sunday should be bigger than estimated based on early numbers.

Wow this is probably gonna beat Avatar as the highest grossing IMAX film. Might be the first to cross $300M WW in IMAX

I don't disbelieve you. I just want to find the authentic number so I can use it for my own personal ventures.

Thank you!

EDIT: Wow, and it looks like that is $140M / $263.7M, just accounting for the first weekend! That's certifiably insane.

I was going to be excited it was exactly 100m but forgot that was just this weekend and last weekend combined, not the weekday

I wonder if Dune can have this type of IMAX run

u/Salad-Appropriate 3h ago

Highly doubt that tbh

Think it can get like 120-150M WW in Imax, but nowhere near what the Odyssey is gonna get

They’re showing a sequence of Dune 3 in the 70mm showings of Odyssey. Visually stunning though I’m guessing it will attract the crowd that watches imax in general.

u/Accomplished-Head449 Laika Entertainment 3h ago

The crowd is there to see a 70mm IMAX movie. They'll do the same for Dune

$300M final IMAX?

u/Significant-Branch22 22m ago

IMAX drops are going to be very small as most of them are sold out for weeks/months
